The Andy and April thing is starting to get frustrating. His completely missing her crush would be tolerable if they had bits of him scheming to get Anne back more often, but right now it feels completely forced that he wouldn't pick up on it.

He's Andy!

I totally buy it and love it. As far Unrequited Sitcom Love, I'm digging April and Andy WAYYYYYYY more than I ever did Jim and Pam.

This show is amazing. I'm pretty stunned at the season-to-season turn around. It's now easily the funniest Thursday show. Tom's photo was just amazing.

"I wonder what he's thinking?"
"Why's my cup so small?"

And Poehler is really loosening up even as she's still Leslie. She used to be in this awkward proto-Michael-Scott state but now she has all these amazing moments, like when Family Ties admitted to growing pot all over town in the parks.

"Wait, WHAT??"

:lol :lol :lol
 
:lol :lol

April Ludgate
Assisstant To The Director

April Ludgate was born in Bjork's house in Iceland and grew up in Easter Island, where her parents were giant stone heads. She has the ability to fire beams of tacos out of her hands and turn her legs into tigers. On Sundays, April enjoys reading Family Circus and traveling through time. Her favorite color is greenish-transparent, and her favorite movie is the one you just watched.

April is in charge of publishing the staff bios in this catalog, and no one has checked over her work.
 
This show grew on me all of a sudden.

Normally I cannot stand Amy Poehler either so that really says something.

Plus Donna and Tom are kinda hot. :lol
 
Interesting article at Variety. Here's a snippet:
Time to schedule a celebratory lunch at the Jurassic Fork for "Parks and Recreation" co-creator Mike Schur.

Schur has landed a rich overall deal that will keep him at the helm of "Parks and Rec" for many years to come.

It's the best job I can imagine," Schur said. "I don't want to go anywhere else. I'm so attached to this show now, and have come to care about it so much."

The Amy Poehler laffer, created by Schur and Greg Daniels, has become a critical fave in its sophomore season.

NBC primetime entertainment prexy Angela Bromstad called Schur "one of the strongest emerging comedy voices on any network," adding he "is here to stay." "Mike, along with Greg Daniels, is steering 'Parks and Recreation' into another classic comedy," Bromstad said.

I know S3 was green-lit awhile ago, but this sounds like NBC plans to stick with the show long term. :)
Schur was an executive producer and writer for The Office along with playing the character Mose.

So great. Thanks for linking this.
 
Yeah. Its not amazing but its solid. It failed the full attention test, I've been playing with my phone while watching, but w.e.

Heads 32 tails 35
Okkkk...heads! Oh boy!
:lol

Edit: the milk, and then heads 95 tails 94, lmfao.
 
I actually enjoyed this episode. Maybe it's just because of my love of early 1990's basketball and the fact that I was actually excited to see Detlef Schrempf.

It's painful to watch what they've done to the character of Mark. They've turned him into quite the dunce since it was announced that Paul Schneider is off the show.
