TV Season-Parks and Recreation

It's April and new shows are still coming out...WTF? Ah well, I guess it keeps things interesting.

Parks and Recreation, the very hyped NBC Office-esque comedy debuted Thursday, and it was OK. Look, I know they really need viewers, so they hype it to death, but there is the problem with making it out to be the best-- comedy-- EVER! And it isn't. So inevitably, many people will be really disappointed. Me? Despite the hype, or maybe because of it, I wasn't expecting it to be perfect or the best show ever made. So I was OK with the first episode.

Truly, it can go either way really fast. It could very easily become so bad so quickly...you can see that...almost feel that in the show. But, it could build on its nice elements, and it has several of them, and become moderately good. I don't predict it will ever become a great TV comedy.

So I'll keep watching. They only have made about 10 episode I think, so it will be over quickly either way, for the season.
