I am a huge fan of this (comedy) show, and of its star Amy Poehler. I also thought she was hilarious on Saturday Night Live! It has won any number of award nominations (as has Amy Poehler) and is a lot of fun to watch if you keep up with politics and current events. Nick Offerman is also funny in a way that you rarely see on television anymore - this is truly comedy for grownups. It comes on Thursday nights on NBC.
Do you watch it? Describe a funny scene or episode that you particularly enjoyed!
I'll start it - I laughed and laughed when Ann Perkins (played by Rashida Jones - she's composer Quincy Jones' daughter BTW) finally begins to see how neurotic, obsessive compulsive and just plain wierd her health nut ex-boyfriend is! We spent the entire season thinking this, and laughing at her for not being able to see it. Her ex-boyfriend is played by Rob Lowe, who pulls out all the stops in being just as discordant and self-centered as any woman's worse nightmare, and I just laughed and laughed at the look on her face when she said to the camera, "I can't believe that I dated this man, and that he broke up with me!" Folks, if you missed that, you missed some of the best moments in television IMO.
