Yeah, I didn't see that coming at all and it was a good chuckle.

I checked online but couldn't find any information, when can I start ordering Miracle Cure the Cologne.

It seemed like Amy was reading her lines a lot, but the rest of it was enjoyable for what it was.

Re: Parks and Recreation
For me it was tough to watch at first but finished strong.
My daughter loves the show and she was absolutely thrilled throughout. That made me very happy. So all in all, great special.

Re: Parks and Recreation
Sure the gags were hit or miss, but seeing those characters together/apart again warmed even my fossilized old heart. I wish Satan's Niece had gotten more screen time, but I'm sure she's glad she didn't.

Re: Parks and Recreation
There was almost a little too much Covid speechifying, but otherwise I found it to be quite funny. Solid A- rated episode for me.

This doesn't involve Parks & Rec, but I'll spoiler it anyhow.

Re: Parks and Recreation
That special was way better than it had any right to be. Don't get me wrong I love Parks and Rec, but It that could have easily fallen on it's face. I can't imagine many other shows being able to pull that off. Especially after being off the air for so many years.

Re: Parks and Recreation
Yeah. I think the social-distance format allowed them to just do character bits without worrying about having to launch and conclude any sort of one-off plot. Basically the characters were doing the same thing the viewer is doing: reconnecting by video.Scraper wrote: Mon May 11, 2020 9:30 am That special was way better than it had any right to be.

Wow. I've never seen that standup in any format, but that's surprisingly too bad.Kraken wrote: Mon May 11, 2020 1:08 amThis doesn't involve Parks & Rec, but I'll spoiler it anyhow.Spoiler:

Re: Parks and Recreation
I'm currently reading his book from 2013 ("Paddle Your Own Canoe"), so your stand-up experience would not surprise me now. That being said, I was quite surprised in reading about his teen and young adult years and the kinds of things he was into (or at least is willing to write about and admit to). He's definitely an interesting person (based on what he's shared).
Maybe next year, maybe no go
