It's almost hard to watch Andy not pick up on the fact that April likes him.

Agreed, although I think it's inevitable that he'll figure it out so I'm not that worried for him. This show is so awesome, it is now my favorite show on TV. All the characters are hilarious, I still can't stop laughing at Tom handing out his house keys to random chicks.

"So far, no one's taken me up on my offer, but it's only a matter of time. (long pause) I have been robbed twice."
 
This show needs more love, its been consistently as good if not better than the episodes from community.

Its so unrecognisable from season 1, which i gave up on 4 episodes in.

"he'll wrap her up in his moustache and take her home" :lol Tom on Ron and his fakewife meeting

Also i think i'm getting a love for Leslie akin to Liz Lemon from 30 rock.

Leslie as Hoarder was unbelievably hilarious. I liked S1 just fine but S2 is hyperspeed in comparison. On a good day, it's the best show on Thursdays.
 
I like how this show always keeps you guessing, you cant quite put a finger on their formula

Leslie turning her self in and funding the trial :lol

classic stuff

also Ron "Fucking" Swanson bringing his own private devilled eggs :lol

tom checking out his exfoliated handshake with april and the nirvana joke :lol

I agree, this season IMO has been equal to The Office in its prime. The show's wikiquote page is SOOOOOO lacking in quality, as of right now there isn't even a single quote listed for the latest episode.
 
That deviled egg bit was pure gold. That and Ron's reaction to the breakfast buffet at the strip club have left me in hysterics.
 
"Thiiis is how we eeeat it" deserves another mention.

Glad I checked out this episode after watching it sparingly this season. I'm putting it back on my lineup.
 
Or when the glitter bomb went off in the strip club, Ron looked panicked and covered his breakfast plate with his jacket....so classic.
 
Best scene is still the "The Practice Date" one with Dave (Louis CK).

Leslie talking to camera: I think it’s going pretty well with Dave. He wants me. I can totally tell that he wants me.
Dave 5 ft away: I’m right here. You know I’m here, right?


That whole episode is probably my favorite single episode of any show this season. The secondary plot with everyone digging up dirt on each other is so great. It's the episode where they also start being mean to Jerry regularly. :lol

Too bad this week is a repeat :(
 
Great news. The show really has grown and gotten so much better than the first season. Plus more Aubrey Plaza is a good thing!
 
Sweet. If the show continues at this rate it will be amazing. I'm not sure if I've ever seen a show get so much better after it's first season.
 
so glad this got renewed, i was getting a little worried with the dropping numbers the last few episodes.

this show has easily been the funniest of the thursday nbc lineup this season, imo.

solid? fuck that, it was amazing. i dont often laugh out loud while watching comedies, but this one got me.

Ron making a fucking harp
DJ Roomba
The sugar rush rave :lol

gotta get to GIFing
 
This show can be a bit hit and miss, but it can be really funny when it's a hit like last night. :lol

Honestly, I think P&R on a good day is better than The Office was in its prime. All the characters are likable and have redeeming qualities, as opposed to, say, Michael, who's just an annoying idiot. Leslie started out like that, but experienced that little thing called "character development." And it has actual jokes, instead of just awkward situations (usually brought on by Michael's aforementioned idiocy).
