    It looks only ok so far, but The Office was only ok for most of the first season. It didn't start taking off until Season 2. I can see that happening with this show as well.

    I agree. Plus some of the promo stuff has gotten at least a chuckle out of me.

    True. The first season of the US version of THE OFFICE suffered from trying to ape the UK version word for word and beat for beat. But once they started writing their own stories, their own jokes, and just let the characters, relationships (for the most part), and setting be the only link between the two shows, it really took off. If I want to watch the UK THE OFFICE, I'd do just that. I love both.

    And I hated the first episode of 30 ROCK. But apparently I'm missing out now, so I plan on watching the whole series over the summer.

    But I'll give PARKS AND RECREATION at least six episodes to reel me in. Especially if it's only a 22-minute-long sitcom.

    I hope this is good, but I wouldn't be surprised to see it get canned.

    I hope they don't wait too long to show the part where Amy Poehler tilts her head to the side hilariously and makes a goofy face into the camera.

    the office starts at 8 tonight, so does parks and rec start at 7:30? or come on after the 2 episodes of the office?

    I think The Office is on at 8 and 9 with Parks and Rec sammiched in between.

    Yes, according to my DVR web remote that is correct.

    I'm assuming 8:00 Office is a rerun?

    OOOH, ok. Thanks.

    That's a really odd way to seperate it, but whatever.
