PARKS and RECREATION aka "Everything's coming up Amy"

april + andy know how to live

remember all the weird funny characters Amy Poehler used to do on SNL? I miss her being funny.

yeah this show would be better if she only had one leg.

her begging ron to give the art show speech reminded me of her character kaitlin. "RICK RICK RICK RICK RICK RICK RICK RICK!!!!!!"

Haha, I was thinking the same thing.

Mighty B is so great.

Rob Lowe killed it in the open

Probably Adam Scott's strongest ep so far. He actually brought some personality this time. Playing his character off of April and Andy is a masterstroke.

yeah that was inspired. great odd couple possibilities there. they can go anywhere with that scenario. can't wait for a house party episode.

"not being insane" doesn't automatically mean you don't have a personality

Ann and Adam are mostly-thankless roles on this show as they are the two characters who aren't out and out caricatures.

idk ann's pretty funny these days

Ann's always been funny! That's mostly my point!

haha ok yeah i see what yr saying, but i dont know if i agree that she's always been funny! i think w/ ann theyve found a way to make her funny w/o being a caricature, and w/ adam they're still trying to do that

For some reason last night I got incredibly annoyed by Andy and April. At one point I yelled out "grow the fuck up". I was really grumpy, then I realized it was just a tv show and ate some chips an calmed down.

yeah i was annoyed that ben would move in and stay there, but then the marshmallow gun made me feel a lot better. other plotline was way better though.

xp what kind of chips were they

Jay-z vibes

Tostitos

cool

The chili on a frisbee made me grumble like a 75 year old. "fuckin kids"

how old is andy even supposed to be? i have no idea. i can't tell how old people are anymore.

i know april must be, like, early 20's?

Andy's about 31, I think.

Most of my friends are April and Andy, now that I think about it.

April is in college or recently graduated IIRC; she was under 21 at the beginning of the show and was working as a intern for college credit.

Andy is closer to Ann's age, which I'd guess makes him at least 30 (can't tell how old Ann the character is but Rashida is 35-36)

Around the last season finale he commented on the age thing, trying desperately to work out the "half his age plus seven" rule. He was thirty, if I recall.

"half his age plus seven" rule

w/r/t April, I forgot to add.

so weird to think of ann and andy together now

ah okay, according to Wikipedia they started dating in college, which makes a lot of that make so much more sense

also Ann must be several years younger than I thought she was

i love april and andy, but fuckin hell i was angry last night.

I like Ben moving in with them because it can set up lots of wacky situations, but I was annoyed by the part where he was like "Here's next month's rent, go buy some stuff for the house" because I kept wondering who would then be paying the rent next month.

Ann
April
Andy
Adam
Amy

^ driving me insane

haha wow that is kind of freaky. and none of them is played by Aziz Ansari!

they should do a Community crossover and have Abed come visit

Aziz Ansari!

aaaagagahgvffm i forgot about him

this must be very stressful for you, Autumn Almanac

nnnnghhh

ha wait isn't your real name Adam?

This whole time I'm all "what, Ann just got married to Andy what are you OH" and "what, Adam just got married to April what are you OH" etc etc

xp my "real" name is Amy

at some point I swapped Ben/Adam because I got confused about which one was the character's name and which one was the actor's name

now tempted to swap Leslie/Amy and Tom/Aziz just for maximum a-iage

the writers of this show need to go to AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAnonymous

when does Alan Alda begin his stint as Aaron Ackdale the auditing associate from Alabama

when the next season starts airing in Autumn, but they're shooting it in August

on AMC

assholes

Kind of funny that someone was apalled by watching characters live like childish slobs

I sort of want to be a slobby roommate at thebingo's home just to see hime/her wiggin

xp haha i was totally thinking of her when Leslie changed her hair

My brother & his girlfriend stayed with us for 2 weeks, mid-20's and while not ott, def April/Andy moments

ie they flew to US from Australia for a month, including a week long sightseeing tour & one would expect a lot of walking. Gf bought TWO pairs of socks. Brother bought no deodorant, toothpaste...cell phones were just on roaming the whole time...gf is lactose intolerant, didnt tell us, ate a whole bowl of icecream...at times Mr Veg and I were just like AGH! How do you even live, lol

I felt super old.
