Thursday's episode was so cute and hilarious. I am in love with this season

Here is a link to my favorite part of last night's episode.... the "red carpet" at the ice rink. It literally (picture Chris Traeger saying this word) had me in stitches of laughter. I actually started crying tears because I was laughing so much. This season has been so quality... probably my favorite so far. It's introduced us to red carpets in shoes and Treat Yo Self (my new motto in life), both by Tom Haverford.

"It's real. Tom and Ann are dating and will have a relationship for some amount of time."

Schur goes on to say that his writing staff has been talking about hooking up Tom and Ann since season three because they wanted to do something more casual, and comical.

"We have a lot of soul-matey relationships, with Leslie (Amy Poehler) and Ben (Adam Scott) and Andy (Chris Pratt) and April (Aubrey Plaza)," Schur explains, "and we just wanted to do a comedy relationship. It's real, but it's not soulfully gazing into each other eyes and running off to get married after three weeks. We're going for a different relationship, which is a pair of mismatched people who are very gingerly having a couple drinks here and there to see if they're compatible."

"There are certainly people affected by [Tom and Ann's relationship]," Schur reveals. "Most specifically is April. Because she's the person who got them together, they're constantly complaining about each other to her, and she decides the only way she can get through it is to get drunk. So she gets really really drunk at 4 in the afternoon. It's sort of an April, Tom and Ann triangle as far as who's affected."

And Parks and Recreation? It takes a breather until April 19, when it returns in a new (old) time slot: Thursdays at 9:30 p.m. (Up All Night will have completed its season by then.)

So.... what did everyone think about the season finale? It was pretty perfect. I'm SO happy that Leslie won the election. I think I would have cried if she didn't win. I loved how many touching and funny moments were throughout the episode. And I loved that they ended it with, "Jerry forgot to vote!" "Da**it Jerry!"

loved the finale, and so happy they renewed it for another season

Now the 6th season has started and it's still pretty awesome. I only recently watched all 5 seasons and now the 6th is soooooo good I always really laugh out loud, not the whole laughing on the inside thing. I also have them in the background playing while I do other stuff because they always cheer me up. And I love Andy - he's not the sharpest pencil in the tool box but he's so funny, they all are. And I want Leslie to be my friend too, she's awesome

^I really like this season too. It seems like the show keeps getting better and better every year. Bit sad that Ann and Chris will be leaving this season but I understand that the actors want to try new things and at least it's on good terms. I hope that this means they will give Retta more of a plot-line and not just awesome one-liner quips. She's probably the most underrated actor on the show (also have you seen her twitter feed? It's brilliant!). Whenever I'm sad I just watch an episode of Parks & Rec to cheer me up (favorites like Pawnee Rangers and Win Lose or Draw), it usually works.

I'm sad about them leaving too, Chris (the actor - can't remember his name) - this is his literally best role yet
I won't miss Ann too much but I also miss Andy I love him and April together so much - they are awesomesauce
also ...
you blew it, super hard, complete buffoonery, it's hilarious with stuff like this I'm sure they will be able to fill the void.

 

[TREVOFASHIONISTO]

I am literally the same way, I dont always have to be glued to the TV while watching them although their facial expressions are the best, but its such a great show

 

[YoninahAliza]

I'll miss Ann's constant support of Leslie and Leslie calling her pet names like "my beautiful tropical fish." And every time Chris says "literally" I die laughing. So much so that when I hear people use the world in real life I sort of just giggle to myself at times.

Buried in a Friday news dump that announced the cancelations of Welcome to the Family and Ironside, NBC also quietly placed Parks and Recreation on hiatus. In fact, we'll only get new episodes of Parks and Recreation for two weeks between now and January 9. The rest of the remainder of 2013 will be filled with other programs like The Voice, The Sing-Off and The Sound of Music. You have the art of song to blame for your Leslie Knope cravings.

The hiatus begins this week, when a repeat -- a repeat! -- of The Voice will preempt Parks and Recreation. Next week, NBC plans to air a Saturday Night Live Halloween clip show, despite Parks and Recreation's long history of fantastic Halloween episodes. On Nov. 7, a live episode of The Voice extends into Parks and Rec's time slot. Then, the show will be back with back-to-back episodes for two weeks, including the special Halloween/recall episode, which will air two weeks after Halloween. The show is then off the schedule again until January 9, when it will return to its old 8:30 time slot.

It's pretty crappy treatment of Parks and Recreation, NBC's longest-running comedy. Though the decision to hold Parks and Recreation is probably more about NBC's new comedies, none of which are doing very well. Using a higher rated show, like The Voice as a lead-in could draw more eyes to Sean Saves the World, which could use a ratings boost.

It's such a good show, it's in season 6 and they put them on hiatus? really? I just hope this means that after January, Andy will be back ...

Also, I love these GIFs of our awesome characters:

They are back this Thursday, sooooo excited. And it's their 100th episode
What a wonderful way to start a new year

 

[fantastical]

yay! This is probably one of the few shows I watch when it actually comes on live just to help them with their ratings. I just couldn't deal if this show gets cancelled, it's absolutely one of my favorites!

 

[YoninahAliza]

The 100th episode was so great- so proud of Amy and the rest of them for creating brilliant, heartwarming television for us! I really enjoyed this episode and I'm looking forward to seeing where they take Leslie's character next, I'm hoping she dreams big like she was advised too, and runs for something major like senator or governor. How amazing would that be?

 

[TREVOFASHIONISTO]

So happy for Amy she finally won a GG it was completely deserved shes such an amazing person
