This show is getting funnier by the episode. It started real slow and I thought it would be cancelled, but things have really picked up in the last 3 episodes starting with the Halloween episode. Even Walton and Johnson talked about this show this morning on the radio.

Some of the jokes and situations are absolutely hilarious. For example - the hanging of the Swastika in the office and the last line from last night's episode - Rajiv to Todd: "What would I've said? Gupta licked your muffin?". LOL...

The entire show is not as funny as one angry look from Ron Swanson.

I hate NBC and hope the stay at the bottom of the ratings barrel throughout eternity.

I don't get the hate for Outsourced. I'm not saying it's good but it's not terrible enough to inspire what I've seen on this board. Is this all lashing out from disgruntled Parks and Recreation fans?

Probably. Outsourced isn't terrible I guess, but there's nothing remotely funny about it either. It's mildly entertaining. It seems like their entire angle is the love story/trianlge thing and terrible culture jokes. Parks and Rec on the other hand is hilarious.

I kinda like Outsourced. Or maybe a better way of putting it is that I gave it a shot when it first started, and it's been good enough to keep my attention. It's nothing special, but doesn't suck IMO. So for those reasons, I'll keep watching it.

Wow...the replies are OTisque in their abrasive hate for this show. It is not really that bad.

Is it Big Bang Theory level funny. No. But it ain't that awful either. The culture clash jokes will never go away completely, but once that wears off, I hope the writers come up with more complex character development and plots to keep up the interest level.

I did not watch P&R and from my perspective, I find outsourced to be moderately funny. Good for a few laughs and for now, good enough to stay on TV. It's usually one of the last things I pick from my DVR but I do make sure I watch it.

I would really question its long term viability though.

I don't know how i feel about it. I usually end up watching it after office and while i'm just waiting around to switch to fx at 9. It's ok. I mainly laugh at deidrich bader, and the 2 broads are kinda hot. I wouldn't be upset if it was cancelled, and I expect it to.

I'll never understand the love for this show on this board. That show is horrible. The guy who looks like an alien is a horrible character. There, I said it.
