2017 / Ron & Jammy

Not a bad way to kick off the New Year with a double shot of
Parks and Recreation. Wasn't sure how they were going to set up
Season 7 given how they 'Closed' the end of Season 6 in the
future. So, everything this season takes place 2 years from now
in 2017, which gives the writers headroom to create their own
"future", be it the Chicago Cubs finally winning a World Series
and other inside jokes. But the trippiest thing was seeing that
in 2017, it's normal for everyone to have a portable 'Minority
Report' device that's basically a step up from the stone age
device that is the [b]iPhone[/b]. This whole future things just
seems really odd and feels like they are trying to carve out
their own Back To The Future moment. Also weird is seeing the
P&R gang split into two 'warring' factions with Leslie on one
side and Ron on the other.
Fun hour that provided a few great moments that had me howling
with delight. Leslie's impression of Tammy 2was off the charts
hilarious and Councilman Jamm trying to quit Tammy 2cold turkey
had me in stitches. But it was Tammy 2herself that stole the
night when she tries to seduce Jamm by stripping her clothes off
in the library and then going apesh*t when she failed to seduce
him. Megan Mullally for the win! It was kinda cool that I got to
watch Guardians of the Galaxy earlier in the night and then
finish the evening with more Chris Pratt. Two totally opposite
characters.

Eh. Episode was just okay for me. Best moment comes at the end
when Ben and the rest of the gang lock Leslie and Ron in the
room to force them to reconcile. I hope they clue us in exactly
what this Morning Star is and what happened and they better do
it soon. They keep planing this Morning Star seeds all over the
place. Need to know...NOW!

You didn't see episode 4 yet? Get on that. It's good.
This is the first season of P&R I'm watching as it airs, and
that's only b/c I know they're burning off the episodes two at a
time.

Article on The Baffler on Parks and Rec's utopian vision of
government

Though I don't know if I agree with everything the article is
saying, it's certainly food for thought.

Leslie and Ron

Quite possibly one of the best episodes in the series and the
fact that it was just Ron and Leslie for the bulk of the
episode, locked in a room made it all the more better.......and
fitting. The best dialogue on onscreen chemistry and always
derived from these two. So, it fascinating to watch current
enemies basically telling us the story of what happened the past
2 years and along the way rekindle their friendship. There is a
lot to love about this episode and Leslie's rendition and
butched lyrical version of 'We Didn't Start the Fire' was, is
and will always be f*cking classic. It had me laughing with
delight. Loved that by 8am they were not only friends again, but
acting like complete morons....saxophone and all. ;D

Super funny episode that more or less spells out how Skynet
reeeeeeeally begins. ;D I like that the gang is now coming
together to fight a common enemy, with Ron being the last to
join. Best moment of the episode was the end with Ron at Leslie
and Ben's doorstop, having just killed a "robot". Hahaha. We get
more hi-tech stuff in this episode and it actually worked within
the context of this episode. Even Tom's and Andy's story line
was good. Props for having Dax Shepard guest-star.

Watching Gryzzl Box now. I like how Craig goes to the same
therapist that Rob Lowe's character did. I also love that they
both say his name, Dr Richard Nygard, whenever they talk about
him. What the heck goes on in those sessions?
I also like how they're touching on the privacy issues inherent
with technology and data-mining, I remember this sort of thing
coming out ages ago. Though it's strange that they didn't bring
up the fact that the government data mines as well, we just
heard about the fact that the healthcare.gov site was selling
data to advertisers, which is a huge violation of public trust.

I liked this episode for a couple of reasons. First was the
return of Dennis Feinstein, Pawnee's resident Perfume man. He
doesn't get much to do, but it's always memorable and watching
him spray down the protesters with his latest invention using
fire hoses was priceless. I just wish he had gotten more scenes
throughout the series. The other thing that made this episode
good was seeing Craig taking over Tom's restaurant as
Manager.....for all of 2 minutes. His response to getting fired
was also priceless. I'm glad the gang is back together now
because it has opened the door to more Craig outbursts. That guy
is f*cking nuts!!

Donna and Joe

Anyone else find it kind of weird that Donna and Joe had an
entire episode devoted to their wedding? Their relationship was
more or less cobbled together for a couple of episodes and
nothing was really made of it while it was haqppening. This
isn't a love story on par with legit once that anchored other
series. I didn't care about their relationship as it never
really existed. With that said, the episode was funny for a lot
of reasons. A drunk, dancing Ben Wyatt is tops in my book and
Ron constantly putting his foot in his mouth, trying to help Tom
get with his "girl" was another. I thought the inside joke
pertaining to 867-5309 was a good one.
