I really love Leslie Knope. It is silly to say but she's like my personal role model.

Dale, dale, dale (Abbbottt), Sunday, 13 May 2012 02:10 (1 year ago) Permalink

Silly because she's too wonderful??

I cried... and then I cuddled with my care bear and arranged flowers because I'm a WOMAN.

No but really I did cry. Good stuff.

Today's Variety has an article written in character by Poehler called The Audacity of Knope.

As Swanson, Offerman is both father figure and anchor of the show, providing a stern, deadpan center in the eye of the craziness, as well as the rare TV depiction of masculinity that’s funny without being tied to tired chauvinistic stereotypes.

um

ha what? There was a whole episode where he had a boys-only survivalist club. Like I know it would be tedious to list reasons why that's silly but I had to say just one.

Team Safeword (Abbbottt), Wednesday, 18 July 2012 15:51 (10 months ago) Permalink

it would be more accurate to say he humanizes tired chauvinistic stereotypes and (for many) makes them endearing

That NSFW headshot of him with a foam rubber Tetsuo cock is priceless

Team Safeword (Abbbottt), Wednesday, 18 July 2012 16:03 (10 months ago) Permalink

I think maybe the writer thinks that "chauvinistic stereotypes" only refers to like open sexual harrassment ala Mad Men or something.

Offerman's announcing the Emmy nominations tomorrow morning -- hope he gets to read some good news for himself and the show. Seems like his failure to score a nomination last year was seen as one of the bigger "snubs," so maybe Emmy voters will want to avoid similar accusations this year. The Peabody Award might also convince some people who'd previously ignored P&R that it's a show worth paying attention to.

oh god abbottt whyyyyyyy did you post that picture

Nhex, Thursday, 19 July 2012 01:02 (10 months ago) Permalink

Because it is cracking me up, still! Here's the story about it from the link DJP posted:

It’s funny, the flipside to that is, once I got into the business, immediately in Chicago—when I met with agents and people taking headshots and all that—they immediately started to categorize me and tell me what I was. When I first met with agents, they said, “Okay, you’re going to play plumbers and mechanics and bus drivers and farmers. Go.” And I was like, “Man… Fuck you. I can play anything, you son of a bitch!”

My response to that was to get this three-quarter headshot—like, knees to head—with this huge foam latex cock about the size of my forearm and fist that I’d made for a play. I got a headshot taken with this thing hanging out of my fly and just looking defiantly at the camera. I sent it to everybody in town. [Laughs.] That was my response to being told I was gonna be playing bus drivers: “Oh yeah? Have you seen my dick?” And wonderfully, two people in town got it and thought it was really funny, and they put me in plays in their theaters.

I’m gonna go see if I can find this photograph. One of the good things is, I’m super-young. I’m like 22 or 23 in this photo. I’ll be interested to get [my publicist’s] opinion on publishing a photo of me with a huge cock sticking out of my pants, but I believe I’m all for it. [Laughs.]

that was a pretty good interview. i'm horrified and dying at that picture

It amuses me that his DIY craftsmanship extends to making body terror penis props.

P&R shut out of the main Emmy nominations again w/the exception of Poehler.

Never translate Dutch (jaymc), Thursday, 19 July 2012 13:15 (10 months ago) Permalink

Two writing nominations, though, and one for the "April and Andy's Road Trip" webisode.

Never translate Dutch (jaymc), Thursday, 19 July 2012 13:21 (10 months ago) Permalink

"shut out" is a pretty absolute term, should prob not be used when there are exceptions

Barack 2 Chainz Obama (some dude), Thursday, 19 July 2012 13:31 (10 months ago) Permalink

Yeah, true. But no noms for comedy series or for Offerman is disappointing.

Offerman didn't even get to announce the noms, held up by "weather-related travel delays," sucks 2 be him i guess

let's be honest though, offerman was like fuck this man i got fish to catch

Nhex, Thursday, 19 July 2012 14:16 (10 months ago) Permalink

Possibly! He said in that interview that he was honored to be asked but that it fell in the middle of his family's annual fishing trip in Minnesota.

A friend posted on FB that she noticed a film crew in NYC shooting something with Amy Poehler and Paul Rudd both dressed as Benjamin Franklin.

One can dream, but I got the impression they were separately attired.

also because they are totally unconvincing in acting it out
