Doing a rewatch of Parks and Rec...man, season 1-5 are top tier. (Yes, S1 is different as Leslie was annoying but it still has some moments). I honestly don't remember much about S6 and 7. So looking forward to watching those again.

I'm also in the camp that Mark was a good character. If you've worked in an office setting, everyone has a Mark.

I'm at the episode now where Jerry was presenting on Hunting and Trout season - then shows a picture of him with an umbrella and says he went on vacation to Muncie and he has a time share there. Haha

Ron Swanson has some of the best lines in TV.

"I got my first job when I was nine. Worked at a sheet metal factory. In two weeks, I was running the floor... Child labor laws are ruining this country".

I'm in a casual rewatch as well. Probably 3rd or 4th one. Such a great show. Probably the last network comedy I've watched.

Woof. He's the reason S1 dragged for me. It's not that he was bad, he was just in the way of comedy. You get him out of the way and the whole show/entire cast is funny.

The show also hits it's stride in S2 because it stopped trying to be exactly like the office and becomes it's own show.
