Leslie still needs to solve a murder on a train, then she becomes president. Also I miss Champion.

I just realized we didn't have a new Parks & Recreation last night. Now I'm sad. We don't get a new episode until December right?

Merauder posted:Adam Scott just tweeted some clarifications about the recent article talking about the season, because apparently that's a thing now. He's right though. NBC rearranged their Thursday late October/November schedule last week when they cancelled Welcome to the Family. Then a couple days after that some TV writer looked at the new schedule and started screaming that the show was "on hiatus" and that narrative kind of caught fire. It's irritating that episodes got moved and probably doesn't mean good things for the prospects of a Season 7, but we're still getting the same amount of Parks and Rec we were going to get this year and then the show is back to a regular schedule in January. My God, it's full of hcreight fucked around with this message at 18:46 on Oct 25, 2013 |

We'll get 2 on Nov. 14th, and 2 on Nov. 21st. The fact that I've had to answer this twice now is just proof that NBC is loving up their own show by making people lose track of when it's airing.

I'd just wait for the season to be put on netflix or something, and I watched a lot less tv in general. I don't think it's that big of a deal.

Not that actual viewership isn't a bad stat to track. It can let you know, for example, how many people might buy a piece of merchandise or the DVDs or something. Or if you wanted to use a show's characters in other mediums (like a commercial, or a cartoon or something), you'd know how big the viewer base is. In other words, having a better ratings system could allow you to see the possible benefit in monetizing a show in more ways than just TV commercials.

I couldn't get DVR at an apartment complex I lived in because it was "wired" (or some bullshit like that) as a business connection, and as far as Comcast was concerned, I was a business. Even though I was going directly through the cable company and couldn't go through my apartment complex for it. My cable was a LOT cheaper for my "business" than it would have been otherwise though... The one rep who took the time to explain it to me said that basically they legally (and monetarily) can't allow businesses to have dozens or hundreds of people over to watch something and have those hundreds of people skipping through the commercials. I guess what I'm saying is I was totally wrong a few posts ago.

Azure_Horizon posted:Yeah their entire interaction was a big Orphan Black spoof. Specifically with the British accent at the beginning as Tatiana has one in the show for one of the clones but doesn't have one in real life. I'm a bit  when catching subtleties like this on TV. I wasn't aware she'd be on and I thought to myself, "Is that the actress from Orphan Black? No, she's different, it can't be her." I watched an entire season of Maslany playing 5+ roles on a single show and I didn't fully recognize her until the final scene.  Maslany got her start doing improv so I hope some of that experience comes into play next episode.

I've been thinking a lot about what I had for dinner and I kinda want to know since the premise seems so familiar to the show that it may well have happened and just slipped my mind: Does Leslie ever try to get Ron to try some quiche, to his usual response, only to have him have a change of heart after trying it since it's basically a pie with eggs and meat and cheese? I was thinking to myself that it's one of the manliest foods with the most misleading names you could have. I know the scenario happens in this show all the time with different things, but I was wondering if it was ever quiche in particular that he comes around to.

Enjoy this no context preview image I love so much that the P&R guys put as much thought into their townsfolk as the regular cast, similar to The Simpsons. They all have their own unique character to them, it's really impressive.
