Did you know Vitalogy was written about Donna? Classic. There have been other PJ references on the show. One of the writers must be a fan!

    Love this show, sad that it's ending. Not many network sitcoms can seamlessly throw Pearl Jam, Questlove, and Ginuwine jokes into 1 episode.

    Andy: I have a T-shirt I tackled Eddie Vedder in. It's literally priceless.

    different season, but works well here. I can watch each season over and over. Great show.

    Have watch every episode from the beginning...... it's great when they throw in PJ references!
    Last night was especially good...... I never knew that about Donna. ;)
    Love this show, I will be sad when P&R is off the air.

    This ends tonight. Literally, one of my favorite comedies of all time.

    And I don't get to watch it tonight because the wife is out of town.

    Big fan of this show. I don't know if people in this thread already know about it, but Geeks Who Drink (pub quiz in most states) is having an all-Parks and Rec quiz for cash this weekend in a lot of their locations around the country. I want to go even though I don't have enough memorized about the show to win, it's just fun to hear the questions and give it a try. I have watched every show as they aired as opposed to marathon watch on netflix so I'm not sure how good I'd be at trivia but it's a fun time.

    It started slow, but man did it pick up steam. Hard to think of another show that really turned it around so quickly. Definitely one of the best network comedies from the past decade.

    When Mark Brendanawic left the show and Andy Dwyer got a bigger role the show got much better.

    Am I the only one who thought Mark sucked?

    The great thing about it as a whole is how they expanded the characters so much. Not just the number of characters, which by the way I think of as almost reaching Simpsons-Universe expanse, but how much information and depth they added to really minor characters, even... characters that were kind of in a couple episodes, then all of a sudden played a major part in something. Not many shows have the creativity to do that. Chris & Ben coming into the storyline, as well as making Andy a bigger numbskull, and Ron a bigger character (plus his whole alter ego etc), all that stuff helped the show blossom. There are so many funny and good characters, it's insane. Here's a great example of how they change so much around with just one character.
