The nice thing about being part of the problem is not being expected to be part of the solution.

The word "iconic" is thrown around way too often in the context of popular culture—but Nimoy's Spock wholly merits that adjective. RIP.

Think about it—The Newports own the Pawnee Journal—Suddenly, Shauna may have vaulted over Joan Callamezzo to become the most powerful woman in Pawnee media—certainly more powerful than Kim Terlando of that useless tabloid, the Pawnee Sun!

When it comes to accounting, there's no a-ccounting for taste.

The all-time worst series finale (surprised nobody's mentioned this) was "Family Ties", for no better reason than the cast actually made an onscreen tearful "curtain call" for the studio audience at the end.

And when we're here, than we're home.

Nobody remembers Dr. Wendy Haverford.

And she is the PRESIDENT of the city council!

I can confirm that Jamm is in the extended cut.

I'll never understand why somebody would admit to watching three entire seasons of a TV show and then pronounce it "unwatchable". I'll generally turn off a show I find "unwatchable" within about sixty seconds and never watch it again. Three seasons? Good God, that's what—five dozen episodes? A full day of television…

According to Schur, use of the Secret Service, along with Leslie's mention, upon accepting her honorary doctorate, of a new chapter in her life, was directly inspired by the intentional ambiguity of the final Sopranos episode.

I just saw it and…don't want to spoil it. But Shauna's future gave me quite a bit of food for thought, for reasons that…I don't want to spoil.

Wendy Havorford, Dave the cop, Derry Murbles (host of "Thoughts For Your Thoughts"), Lindsey Carlisle Shay…I think we saw Councilman Dexhart, but I can't remember—did we see Pistol Pete? (Also, as mentioned, Tammy 1.)

Yeah, I think the "mockumentary format" and the use of "talking heads" have become such an accepted style of film vocabulary that someday film schools will have to teach young people that during early use of the format, filmmakers sometimes went out of their way to explain the presence of the otherwise unseen film…

The citizens of Pawnee chose to elect one of their own into office. It is well established that they do not respond positively to the passive-aggressive prompting of their local governmental leaders.

I can't wait to get this final season of DVD—no commercials, no screenbugs, no scrolling promos. This is probably the last TV show that I will watch on a pre-Hulu basis.

The more I think about it…I had forgotten that Brandi ran against Leslie in the 2012 election, and in an appropriately twisted way, she isn't all that different from Leslie—she just chooses to provide a different type of service to the public.

Thanks for making it a fun read!

Talk to you soon, ManPretendingToBe Perd Hapley, is not something I will be saying to you in this post. Instead, I can only bid you farewell, in a comment section which won't stop saying goodbye.

I like to think that Brendanawicz ran off to Canada to bone Dr. Wendy Haverford and never came back.
