Parks and Rec



I came here to say this. Similarly, I'd say The Office. The pilot episode basically aped all of the original UK's Ep 1 version.

The intentionally gave Michael Scott bad hair, an oversized suit, etc. in order to make him unlikable character, like Ricky Gervais.

Correct answer is actually The Simpsons.

I couldn't believe it when I read this. For years, I thought Steve Carrell had a hair transplant after he started getting bigger in the office. I had no idea his hair was always fine and they purposely made it look like it was falling out.

I will agree with Parks & Rec. I watched the first season after watching later seasons. It's jarring how different some of the characters are with the most being Andy. I was so used to him being a lovable guy. It's weird how unlikeable he is in season 1.
