I disagree with both of you. Seinfeld S1 only had five episodes and P&R only had six. That is somewhat common for new shows trying to find their way. Both had some solid episodes and P&R year one was excellent. The Banquet where Leslie gets the man haircut and everyone thinks Ann is her girlfriend is hilarious. Mark banging Shauna Malwee-Tweep in The Reporter was also great. P&R year one was second best year ever. The show jumped the shark pretty early by making the characters too silly and the episodes too over the top.

i disagree. they made them over the top to begin with, then settled them down. Craig and Andy are the only ones they really let be over the top after that. you could also argue for John Ralphio, Jamm, and Tammy 2, but they did them all in small doses like Creed.

my favortie thing was they took Ron just being a cranky boss and leslie being over the top annoying and found a good way to lean into a staunch libertarian vs. do gooder liberal and make it endearing.

Congrats, everything you said is so totally wrong I don't even know where to begin.
