Anyone catch Thursday's episode? Absolutely hilarious. It's probably the most consistently funny show on TV.

Ron

"I'd like to thank you all for begin here, let's get started"
"Wow, great work ethic Ron"
"I was talking to the ribs."

Last episode was alright for me. Some very funny spots but generally Ann character does nothing for me. Ben and Leslie are really funny together though. I could just watch a 20 min show of them and another 20 min show of just April and Andy as well.

I seriously wish that they go all they way with Leslie's campaign. For the show to continue to evolve, they need to take that big step instead of going back to the norm.

Recently started watching this. Am a few episodes into Season 2. Andy is awesome.

"Andy are you living in the pit?"

"What? Whaaaaaaat. Yes."

Andy is good, but it's all about Ron, he is the best.

Andy delivers his line so well. He and April together are great.

It's rare to have two good and funny female characters on one show. 30 Rock kind of pulls it of but not really and on a different level.

Why don't more people watch this show?

Last night's episode literally had me in tears at times.

Spoiler
Ben saying "oh I'm so sorry, is it cancer?" to the old guy

Ron to Ann...
"Hello Ann Perkins"
"That's the first time you've ever said my name correctly"
"Nonsense! We are close friends!"

They had to do something. Better than bringing in a new character that might ruin the whole dynamic. Who else is going to do it? Andy is too stupid and Ann is only there part time. She's a nurse after all.

I love the fact that Nick Offerman is also a professional woodworker.

Started watching this recently and I'm half way through the second series. I think it's fantastic.

Andy is pure comedy and you've just gotta love Ron Swanson. Infact, the whole cast is brilliant. The only person who doesn't shine as much as the others is April but she's still good.

How good is series 3?

Even better than series 2 I think. And 4 has been fantastic so far too. It's consistently awesome throughout.

Is this worth watching? Aziz Ansari's standup is awesome, but I watched the first two episodes and wasn't sold on it. What's it similar to? I couldn't watch the Office(UK) because it was just too awkward that it was painful to watch rather than being funny.

As I've said before, the first season of the show is wank, but it's only 6 episodes. I've friends who just skipped it and went straight to season 2, which is brilliant right from the get-go, so either suck it up and make it through the first 6 episodes, or skip them.

Either way, it's the best comedy show on TV. It's not "cringey" like the Office either.

The first season isn't great, but I didn't get the awful vibe most seem to, it's tolerable. I mean i'd take it over Two and a Half Men at it's "best" and Big Bang Theory ya know.

Start of season 4 is pretty stupid at times too, didn't like it, but it came around. Aziz and his little mate on the show are the weakest parts of it on the whole for me and their stuff at the beginning of season 4 is like 90% of why I think it's stupid.

Well worth sticking with it but the one drawback I have is the main character...while Amy Poehler's undoubtedly funny she can get irritating quite easily. Although she's the only irritating one, and it's not that often. Severe shortage of links for Season 3 at the moment though, finished Season 2 last week and can't find anything for 3, I've even considered buying the DVD for it...ridiculous idea I know.

RS and co are dead after the Megaupload thing unless you are a pro with them.....well not dead, just slow as fuck for the most part. Torrent it.

I'd recommend torrentday, since it's season packs are freeleech, but it's not open registration now and they don't give out invites easily -_-

Whaaa'? Aziz and Jean-Ralphio are brilliant! Some of my favourite scenes have that fella in them.

Disagree on that one, they made her very irritating in S1 but they rewrote the character from S2 onwards and I've never found her remotely irritating since, just funny.

I agree. The scene with both of them dancing after Ben hits the party button had me in stitches

It was. So many great scenes, especially when Ben was just walking around the hangar and noticing all the ridiculous things they were spending their money on. Offering people free iPads on the way out

It was very good as always. Andy and Ron were just great.

I found Rob Lowe annoying though, probably the worst character in the show, the only one that doesn't make me laugh.
