To me anyways. No other TV show comes close. I love every single character. Leslie Knope is everyone's dream woman. Ron Swanson is one bad mothafucka. Tom is adorable and hilarious and has the most charisma I've ever seen anyone have. Chris Traeger and Ann Perkins are indeed two beautiful people. Donna is super sassy and I super love her and Tom's "treat yo self" days. Andy Dwyer and April Ludgate are perfect for each other. Andy cracks me up constantly and is obviously a total idiot, yet he's one of the nicest and most thoughtful characters on the show. Literally he's like a puppy. Ben is ok. I like his looks into the camera lol.
I've seen a lot of good TV. The Wire, Breaking Bad, Walking Dead, Mad Men, The Office, Community, Daredevil, Always Sunny, Archer. But nothing comes close to Parks and Rec in terms of how it has affected me. Whenever I watch an episode, I instantly cheer up and my energy is significantly boosted. Also, it's the only show I've wanted to rewatch and had no problem watching again. Couldn't do it with Breaking bad. Couldn't do it with walking dead. Probably will with the office.
And even though I know what's gonna happen and remember most of the jokes, I still laugh my ass off, probably more this 2nd time around than the 1st time. I still tear up (definitely more than last time), at things like Leslie and Ben's surprise wedding. I knew it was coming but when Ron stopped Leslie in the hallway before opening the door, my eyes started leaking. And when she got elected to city council, basically achieving one of her childhood dreams, I cried. Seeing these people accomplish everything they dreamed of is like seeing my own friends and family do the same. Kinda weird, but hey, it's a great show.
And yes, I've seen the final season and the finale. I love pretty much everything about it. I was totally blindside by Ann's return because I didn't pay attention to the credits but when Leslie and Ann reunited it was freaking awesome.
Anyways I'm sure tons of people disagree with me but whatever. This is my opinion.
