None of them really say anything that involved though, except maybe April. Can you really not be a body man, a person who drives a Benz, a volunteer, and an image consultant on your own time? I'm just asking, I have no idea. Because it seems like they just set up vague support jobs like driving her to her own events

His work on Parks has for the most part erased the bad memory, but a small part of me will never forgive him for bailing on arguably the show's best character because of a perceived lack of screen time, particularly with that cast. That's 2.75 seasons that could have been that much better.

When he just appears in the door sucking on his camel thing straw, I quite simply laughed a lot. Then he talked about his special shirt and jumped over the chair chasing after Leslie, and I knew how good this episode was going to be.

"I can hear you breathing." I thought Ben was just conducting some conversation with himself since Leslie rushed out, but April and Andy hiding behind the door was of course so much funnier.

So…can we stop worrying about Lesben "ruining" the show now for a while at least? Because this episode was absolutely hilarious, and if somebody calls the ending sappy, I'm just going to cry or something.

Yeah, his voice can be imitated very well, as JP points out, and though Armisen can't make his voice sound anywhere near as close as Pharoah's does, he at least used to try to mimic the cadence. Halfway through the sketch last  night I think he did it for about 2 sentences, but then he just gave up on it again and

True (and I said elsewhere that I'm not worried about this at the moment since there's nothing else campaign-wise to dig into yet and this relationship had to be dealt with) but the difference is that Jim and Pam were and are stuck in a place where they were basically the winners by default anyway, and once they

That pretty much sums it up. It's just really depressing for me now, and I'm looking at this point for an episode to go out on. I watched season 3, my personal favorite, over Thanksgiving and the difference is really just sad. I can't even find much else to say. Just a couple short years ago this was still my absolute

This is what I was about to say. I think (for the moment, at least) you're all worrying over nothing. The campaign's still some ways off, and this was the most pressing issue  carrying over from last season. It had to go through all this to deal with the relationship, and obviously that necessitated lots of sentiment

Damn I didn't realize that was Mrs. Marblehead. No wonder I liked her so much. You know, besides the fact that she was also so awesome here.

I'm not gonna try to argue with any of your other points because it all kind of boils down to personal taste and I can see why you feel the way you do, but I'd just like to point out that they didn't rally around her because she's a great employee that inspires them or something, it's just because they're all friends

I think it was supposed to be clear that she was definitely going to get fired before Ben fell on the sword. She even said to Chris after that she should have been. And even though they made clear what Ben was doing when he disappeared from the hallway right before, I still forgot about it when they were ruling and

That's a fair point, she really would only be Tom's enemy in his head. He got his ass fairly well whupped. That episode actually would have been welcome when he was being a douche a few episodes back too.

I can see why you feel that way because it's so fun to see Ron with the Tammys, but this particular Tammy has also made enemies of Tom and Leslie on her own, so I don't have much of an issue of her trying to insert herself into the situation and get two of her enemies at once.

I don't think it's random at all. The first thing I imagine that bitch would do when she saw that Leslie (and thus Ron) was in trouble was make up some shit to get her fired.

I don't seem to be having the same problems with Parks that most people are having this season, but I've been on board with HE since the first episode and now that they've got the cast firing nonstop each week and the show's this much fun there's really nothing else I look forward to more than it.

Max deadpanning the "You look like a huge lesbian" capper to the hair jokes made me laugh the loudest and longest, as did Brad's back-and-forth with himself and his "He's kissing her like she has a penis." I think I look forward to this show as much as   or even more than Parks at this point, and jokes like tonight

Loved this episode a lot. I had a feeling after the end that KT wrote this episode, and was glad to find out that I was right. Leslie, while obviously cringe worthy, didn't feel at all out of character, just jealous and angry at her unfortunate situation, and understandably so. She knew what she was doing, and so did
