Yeah, he was so clearly Michael Scott that her having to point it out bothered me.

No way they're gonna break them up. Either Jim or Pam will make the sacrifice and they'll either both move to Philly or both stay in Scranton.

Yes. Yay for vanity roles.

One callback to him dating Angela a couple episodes ago was really funny.

I don't know what was better: not having Brian in this episode, or not having him discussed at length in this review. I'm sure he'll show up again soon enough, though, and ruin everything.

I was just so glad to hear his name. I mean, he's not Voldemort.

I feel really stupid for not realizing that they were done with the Scranton Strangler storyline as soon as he strangled Toby. It's just that the fans, Greg Daniels, and the show itself made it into such a big thing. I was really expecting a more satisfying resolution to that subplot. Especially since Gabe came back!

I find my enjoyment of the show goes way up when I completely ignore the fact they are all still ostensibly working at a paper company.

What's funny is I've always thought Parks and Rec had a major problem with focusing on relationships, especially in regards to Ann and Chris. Getting Leslie and Ben together (for good) instantly made them much more fun and interesting.

Leslie Wyatt is liTterally the worst name ever.

At least he wasn't on tonight's episode. Thank God.

THANK YOU.

The Jerry thing really, really hasn't been very funny to me for a while. I hate to say it, but it's true.

I hav a theory that the relative quality of a Parks and Rec season can be measured by the relative amount of Perd Hapley in it. This season has been disappointing in that regard so far, outside of "Are You There Perdverts? It's Me, Perd, Hosting A New Segment."

I keep finding myself thinking "Parks and Rec is aging so much better than The Office did," and then I keep remembering The Office was still good (even great, I'd say, solely because of Michael Scott Paper Company) in season 5.

That was the line of the night for me, just because Ben trying to do public speaking is one of my favorite things the show's ever done.

Yeah I hated that, especially since I managed to avoid that promo until riiight before it started.

EXCEPT FOR BRIAN.

I'm prepared to call it the best episode of the season so far.
