I somewhat agree with Mr. Wally. I kept nodding off, something that even if I was tired would never happen with a top episode. It did have a few good moments though, especially with all the rejects Ron had to interview for Toms position, the UN parts had a few good laughs too

it did make me laugh 2 or 3 times, but having such high expectations whenever a new p & r comes out, ( i usually am laughing pretty much the whole way through) this last ep was disappointing. didn't even save it on dvr for re-viewing as is my customary practice with this show.

I think I have a good idea why on that.... read only if you want to be spoiled on returning charaters....

Mark Brendanawicz and Dave Sanderson (the cop who got moved to San Diego due to the US Army Reserves) are supposed to be returning this season at some point so I'm assuming they both are going to meddle/mess things up a bit for Leslie and Ben.

Watched the show over the weekend. Hilarious!!!


Loved the opening when Ron discovers people can see his house on google
earth and in desperation, he throws his computer into the dumpster.

lol

John Ralphio is so awesome, I laughed so hard at his conversation with Ben and the last scene in the accounting office.

That was definitely the best part of the episode for me at least!

"So at the accounting firm you would have the boring job." LOL!

Here are some reasons that Parks and Rec is the funniest show on TV.

Leslie's gift to April, a drawing of April decapitating the Black Eyed Peas;
Andy eating silver spray painted M & Ms;
Eddie during Ben's interview;
John Ralphio making fun of Ben's new job;

and there's one other I can't seem to recall right now.

Luv this show

When the description of the Peas came up - "rap for people that hate rap music...pop for people that hate pop music". Truer words have never been spoken on primetime TV.

OK, now I remember the other throw away joke from last episode,
when Ben finishes his interview for an in house accountant at an accounting firm, as he leaves he says "calc u lator", which the interviewer
thinks is so funny he calls in his workmates and asks Ben to repeat it.

My favorite part was when John Ralphio got the job at the end and was immediately fired, and on his way out says something like, "Yeah that sounds about right." I also loved Anne's face when she had to tell Andy to go throw up.

When 2 shows on the same network & night bag on the BEPs...well, it's all good in my book.

How I could have confused Robert California's criticism w/ April's amazing painting on P&R escapes me.

Hey Golden Globe voters, are psychotic or afflicted with some or mental disorders?

You nominate New Girl (which just started in September and which has run all of 6-7 epidsodes) for best comedy, but leave out P & R?

Someone explain this to me before my head implodes.

Gee, and I used to respect these awards as usually being more astute than the oscars and emmys.

I guess they got Ricky Gervais all liquored up and let him do all the voting.

That's easy. It's a meaningless award voted on by a truly random group of foreign correspondents in Los Angeles. Think of them as a collection of Access Hollywood type knuckleheads from Belize, Serbia, and Dubai. They are impressed by style and hype, not substance More importantly, the members of the HFPA are notoriously susceptible to bribery in the form of being granted interviews with stars, sent on press junkets, and lots of gifts from agents such. Far more so than the membership of the Motion Picture or Television Academys.

The only reason people care about the Golden Globes is that the HFPA has carefully marketed it as a bellwether for the Oscars. It's basically the Iowa Caucus of the Oscars race.
