Popular Post Designer1 Posted February 12, 2020 VT Supporter Popular Post Share Posted February 12, 2020 I'm kind of annoyed with myself that it's taken me this long to watch a couple of American comedies, namely The Office and Parks and Recs. They are both absolutely superb and Ron Swanson has quickly become one of my favourite comedy characters of all time. Oh, and The Outsider is by far the best thing on TV at the moment. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Parks and Rec is superb. The US Office is really good too but I think it loses it's way after a few seasons. I'd got bored long before Spoiler Carell left Edited February 12, 2020 by Stevo985 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AVFCDAN Posted February 12, 2020 Share Posted February 12, 2020 Could not get into Parks at all and I really wanted to like it. Haven't tried the American office as yet, maybe one day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seat68 Posted February 12, 2020 Share Posted February 12, 2020 Parks and Rec, and indeed The Office US are amongst my all time favourites. Another suggestion for comedies is the now finished Workaholics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

S 1 was pretty decent but obviously no where close to the original ones with Escobar. I just couldn’t stay with it after Pablo. Those first 2 seasons are terrific though.

wazzap24 Posted February 12, 2020 Share Posted February 12, 2020 On Parks and Recreation - I still have 1/2 of the final season to watch. I’ve kept those last few episodes back because I loved it so much, I didn’t want it to end! I might treat myself to an episode later 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I get what you mean. Pablo made a cameo in the latest season. Fantastic Edited February 12, 2020 by sne 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sharkyvilla Posted February 12, 2020 Share Posted February 12, 2020 I tried the US version of The Office and couldn't get my head around the same scenes/dialogue as the original being redone with different actors. It just didn't seem right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought season 2 was probably the weakest of the seasons. Cali Cartel was probably even a better season than season 1. had no expectations for Narcos Mexico as didnt really like the main actors but was a pleasant surprise 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xela Posted February 13, 2020 Share Posted February 13, 2020 Anyone subscribe to Britbox? I'm a fan of the old detective shows... Morse, Frost, Taggart, and i think they are all on there. Plus all 20 plus seasons of Midsomer Murders. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
