except that "stereotype" is used to force a positive portrayal and here they are both shown as flawed people in their own ways, so it's not stereotypical at all

have you met women?

while i agree that there's a bitch or asshole component in many of the characters louie interacts with, i don't think the cause is bad writing in general or bad writing of the female characters. It's just there are people like that, for sure many of them women and it's one of the themes of the show: the way people are

better safe than sorry about what? it's a tv show, are you having a psychotic break?

yeah, it was pretty out there but in a childish way… so in a sense it's a pretty lazy and cynical middle finger to satirize your own genre and the network that finances it, but not the audience that expects it… i mean if you hate sitcoms so much or find it too constraining, write something else, don't whine about it

you douchey douche!

sure, you should try watching "full house" and other sitcoms like it, they're filled with nice feelings and lessons to learn, me i like to laugh at britta being a hipster and jeff being a douche, strangely not that many sitcoms like this (or they don't last very long)… makes people go "boo hoo" or something

oh i didn't remember that, haha! hmm i'm gonna get me some community season 3, good times

i was quoting the biology professor

what is there to prove with the abundance of responses like menocu's: lazy ad hominem attack to a negative opinion toward the show *… but you're right i've belabored that point

clearly stupid and unfunny you mean, what is being rationalized is why such things come to happen in a supposedly funny and smart sitcom

nice review of Van der Werff's emotional stance toward the show or whatever, who cares actually

why waste your and my time with such pedantry?

in other words, harmon turning a sound sitcom premise and original characterization into an excuse to whine about how they didn't appreciate him while manchild praisers suck his narcissistic boner

you mean the boring rationalizations of harmon fanboys right?

lol

holy shit! sitcom subversion alert, don't jizz your pants!

or the person who eats up pseudo intellectual bullshit and masturbates to his own fan fiction of it, now thanks to the internet in a circle… pathetic + disgusting,

oh don't be so modest! it is YOU who is brilliant! you shiny, harmon-fellating star

because parks and rec is a thoroughly derivative sellout show, while dan harmon straddles the line between sellout sitcom writer and pretentious pseudo intellectual for comic con goers and fanboys
