Parks and Recreation Just Started Watching

So I just started this show and WTF.... It's a clone of The Office. Even has the one of the same actresses. I've never seen a show simply knockoff another show and be somewhat successful.

Season 1 was like that
Once season 2 starts Parks and Rec is much different than the office. And much better too

I'm just not a fan. I only watched when it was right before/after the office, but I really only liked one character.

You just started watching on the last episode? Nice

The office was a great great show.
Parks and Recreation kicks its arse. No question about it.

Season 2 is where it really became it's own thing. If you can watch season 2 ep. one about a penguin wedding and still don't like it, then it's not for you.

I go back and forth on which show I like more, but Parks and Rec is not a clone of The Office. I enjoy that Leslie is actually good at her job and works hard. Sometimes, watching the office babysit Michael gets old.

It started as a spin off before they made it its own show in its own TV universe. It was created by Greg Daniels (who developed the US version of The Office) and Michael Schur (who was a producer, writer, and played Mose on The Office)

I started watching in the first season and freaking hated it. Then I quit for a few years and picked it back up. At this point, I have seen every episode and the first season was by far the weakest. The cast even said that on Seth Meyers show tonight. Someone made the comment that they are lucky they got picked up for a second season because a lot of people thought that it was too much like the Office.
Just skip to Season 2.

Just keep watching, because it gets a lot better. It's a great show, one of my favorites!

I just started watching also because I caught a few episodes during a P&R marathon. It does seem to be structured a lot like the Office but I like it. I'm going to start from the beginning on Netflix and try and watch them all.
