So Parks and Recreation is a rehash of The Office with a much less funny Michael Scott.

Posted by Fuzzy (aka mrfuzzy) Aug 26 '12, 12:16

I may try Season 2 based on the suggestions below, but right now it is predictable and unfunny. I really can't believe it lasted beyond the first season.

lost track off the office after spoils... - budice Aug 26, 12:35 1
- Same here. -- nm - Fuzzy Aug 26, 12:42
Don't judge it by that abgreviated first season. I dropped it after a few eps, then caught some season 2... - Cuzzin Todd Aug 26, 12:35
The hunting ep is a major turning point, and then by S2 it kicks into overdrive. -- nm - Reagen Aug 26, 12:23 6
- We just rewatched The Fight last night....that thing is hysterical the entire way through. -- nm - Will Hunting Aug 26, 12:27 5
  - The Flu episode I've watched probably a dozen times. -- nm - Cuzzin Todd Aug 26, 12:35 4
    - The Fight, Little Sebastian and Harvest Festival are my favorites. -- nm - kelly Aug 26, 12:38 3
      - I love your avatar for the Blood Feud boards. - the wrong element, bad guy Aug 26, 12:42 2
        
        Heh, thanks. It makes me laugh every time I look at it. -- nm - kelly Aug 26, 13:06
        
        That entire scene builds to that epicness. -- nm - Will Hunting Aug 26, 12:45
A BOP writer runs a fan site for the show. What he's told me is not to judge the show until season 2. -- nm - David Aug 26, 12:20 7
- could one just start with S2? (this one having never seen a blink of the show) -- nm - mud Aug 26, 12:23 6
  - I've never seen an episode so I can't answer. Amy Poehler bugs me. -- nm - David Aug 26, 12:27 1
    - WTF? I quit. -- nm - mud Aug 26, 12:30
  - Yeah, you don't miss much of anything. - Will Hunting Aug 26, 12:24 3
    - When Rob Lowe and Adam Scott show up is when it really starts to turn into the show it is now. -- nm - Reagen Aug 26, 12:25 2
      - I think of it as everything after Paul Schneider. -- nm - Max Aug 26, 12:51
      - Yeah, they hit home runs with those guys. -- nm - Will Hunting Aug 26, 12:27
Exactly. Never could get into it. -- nm - Spawn Aug 26, 12:17
*Tom Haverford open-mouth smiling face* -- nm - ubby Aug 26, 12:17
It improves about 500%. - Will Hunting Aug 26, 12:17
