Looking forward to this. Purposely stayed away from watching any clips or finding anything out about it. The buzz on it is really good. Can't wait.

I watched the first season online when it was first on in America and it was awful so I stopped watching. I'll give it another go to see if the buzz is right and it really does start to improve.
Couldn't agree more. Season 2 and onwards is just brilliant. It's one of my favourite shows.
A lot of people did.
It's a rip-off of The Office.
Evidently enough people watched the first series so that it was recommissioned.
Maybe enough people here, will also think the first series is good.
For what its worth I enjoyed the first two in a comedy-lite fashion, series two will be with us soon enough.
It's made by people who made the office. It's the same mockumentary style, but it isn't a rip off.
Have you actually seen it, or was that the conclusion made from the bit you saw?
Season 2 though is just brilliant. The funniest season of a US comedy in last 10 years. So many memorable episodes.
And would it not be a good idea to move this to the US Forum here? BBC Four have the rights to seasons 1 and 2...
Is that supposed to be a positive comparison? Seinfeld is painfully unfunny...
That's exactly what makes Series 1 so terrible compare to the other series, in this series it tries too hard to be The Office, but in series 2 Amy Poehler stops playing Michael Scott and starts playing Leslie Knope, someone who isn't as incompetent as she's portrayed this series. Please stick with it until series 2, it really does get better and there's only 6 episodes of this series, which is a small price to pay for the brilliance that follows.
I wish I could explain it better but I'm terrible at this type of thing .
OK. Parks and Recreation = Funny.
Being Eileen = Garbage
