Reply to comment by NeitherAlexNorAlice in The Leftovers, season 2, episode 8, is the weirdest hour of television I have EVER watched. That is all. by TimeTraveler3056

I've seen bots and pieces as my wife was watching it when it came out but I never finished it because she watched a bunch without me and I couldn't be bothered to try and catch up. Worth a watch? I don't remember anything about it other than the basic premise

Just from watching the trailer, the show has a compelling premise. Was there something off about the execution?

Admittedly, I haven't watched it, so maybe I'm part of the problem if the core issue is "not enough people watched it".

Reply to parks and rec or the office? by fundsoverbuns2x

I think The Office has higher highs than Parks and Rec, but it also has lower lows. Parks and Rec starts off pretty rough, but once it hits its stride it pretty much stays at a consistent quality for the remainder of the show.

Seasons 2-4 (and arguably 5) of The Office are incredible and hilarious, but once Michael leaves the show it takes a steep nosedive in quality (season 9 isn't even watchable for me, save for the finale).

Overall I'd give it to The Office because of how incredible it is when it's at its best.

The Office. I legitimately felt sad at the final episode, like a friend had died. For the finale of Parks and Rec , I felt like an acquaintence had moved across the country.

Yeah I knew it was over the second that story broke and she apologized for it. It was an interesting little show but that was the final nail in the coffin. There’s no way a show about that kinda stuff keeps going when one of the main cast admits to that stuff.
