Speaking of Parks and Rec, it was pretty flippin' funny tonight!
Yup.
That's so interesting, Rick, I had no idea.
Slay-er? Chosen One. She who hangs out a lot in cemeteries? You're kidding. Ask around. Look it up: Slayer comma The.

I miss Troy. And I hope an asteroid doesn't destroy all of civilization.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Community shirts are currently on 25% off sale at the NBC store (I think they promote it more in sale email than on the air), and the messenger bag is back in stock, for those what are interested: [link] (code=GCC25).

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
So how about that Parks and Rec finale? I love this show.

Man, I could never get traction with that show. I've watched five or so episodes, and despite liking individual characters and relationships, I don't feel an urge to come back and watch more.
Does marathoning help? Is it worth it?

I think it's one of the most consistently funny and enjoyable shows on television. It always puts a smile on my face.
If you've watched five scattered episodes, as opposed to the first five episodes of season one (which are not the best the show has to offer by any means), I'm not sure whether marathoning would help. It definitely has continuity, but if it's not grabbing you, it may not be your style. Marathoning a show generally does help it put its best foot forward, though.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
I'm in the middle of marathoning it. There's definitely stuff I really like, and a couple of things that irritate me and never get better. I feel like it really kicked in during Season 3.

Always Anti-fascist!
I love April. I kind of am April. But I haven't really watched since last year.(Leslie sometimes gets on my nerves, even though I kind of relate to her civics-geek optimism.)

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."
There were more Buffy references in this week's The Crazy Ones with "fire bad" and Sydney saying "this reminds me of something" at the accidental book burning.

Parks and Rec really grew on me with a slow burn. These days I expect to love each episode and they frequently exceed my expectations.
