Seinfeld got super-broad and lost some of its steam by the end. And yet there are episodes that are just as good sprinkled all throughout the post-David era. Parks is showing its age, but I think it's aging pretty well.

I wouldn't say EXACT same show, but to say that its quality has dropped SHARPLY is fucking ridiculous. Some people just hate something after 4 years instinctively.

I demand a They Call It a Swanson spinoff.

PARKS AND BLACKLISTREATION

"I really don't want this to happen, but hey, whadareyagonnado??"

…and yet EVERYONE knew this would happen. I have to get surgery for all the eye-rolling I did at people making, "NBC's gonna get rid of Parks & Rec and Community, so prepare yourself." talk back in September.

Realistically, it'd have to be 13 episodes and a movie. I mean, if nothing else, that makes Donald Glover's involvement possible.

"So in conclusion, we're gonna see what ground we can make up next year while working with the things that were very successful this year: The Blacklist, Sound of Music Live, and of course The Voice and Football. Oh and we'rerenewingCommunityforasixthseasonokbye."

I'm also hoping it will be, but mostly because the show's still good enough where it could stick the landing and be good front-to-back, unlike that other show everyone thought it was ripping off at first.

It's a foam it's a phone it's a foam corner.

Michael J. Fox show is perfectly fine, which is why it bums me out to see it get a 0.6 rating.

2 good seasons then three times as many embarrassingly awful ones!

I know, right?! I can watch old Parks and Rec and still enjoy it immensely, while The US Office… oof. Shrek-grade eroding past goodwill by wearing out its welcome then sticking around even longer after that.

Incorrect. The show's not as good as it used to be, but it's been around for 5 1/2 seasons now. It's still fantastic, still my favorite network sitcom in a walk. Maybe knowing they have to wrap it up would give them the ability to focus on telling the best story possible and wrapping things up for everyone correctly.

I HATE QUASARS!

American Horror Story: Arizona is Too Real-Life Scary for This Show

American Horror Story: Poltergeist: The Awakening

I can't believe it's taken cable this long to set a show in New Mexico.

Racist, too! Don't forget their thinly-veiled racism!

Well, "family" is pretty much code for "fuck any and all gay people out of basic human rights" now, and… who hasn't been conditioned to bristle when they see the word "parents." For a half-second, you think yours are going to walk into the room.
