Time for a new "What are you watching when you're in the showhole" thread!

This is what Mrs. Haus Mrs. Haus and I have been sauntering through which neither of us had ever watched before now. Once you get past "It's the Office for Bureaucrats" this is really a much better show than I had thought it would be....

This show was incredible. Even the last season, which was much different than all the previous seasons, wasn't bad. I liked this show so much.

And to think that Star Lord started here as a fat homeless dude that shined shoes.

Yes, Ron Swanson has already (we're only at the beginning of season 3) entered my personal patheon of spirit guides. These are the mythological characters whose wisdom always has the answers you need. Current members are:

  1. Al Swearengen
  2. Mr Krabbs
  3. Stan Pines
  4. John Wick
  5. Mr Wednesday (From American Gods)
  6. Hank Hill
  7. and now Ron Swanson.

Yeah, the show got a lot better. It -did- start off as an office rip off. S1 is pretty bad.

Once they figured out that it was bad and decided to stop trying to be the office the show got an awful lot better.

Probably the best thing Audrey Plaza will do.

The Rob Lowe seasons were primo.

Possibly the best thing any of them will do. At least Aubrey has that fappening video that competes well.

Oh wait. I guess chris pratt has gone on to better things.

Yeah, but watching this after GoTG we found ourselves asking if Starlord is really just Andy in Space....

B-Biscuit B-Biscuit and I are working our way through this for the first time. On Season 5 now. We started watching it because it seemed like a good follow-up to The Office. I agree tho that it got a lot better when it stopped trying to be like The Office.

Andy is an all star of the show. One of my favorite comedies. Like it way more than The Office.

Me and the wife watched this over the last few months. One of my favorite shows.of all time. Too bad the last season ruined it.

Favorite thing was how giddy everyone got over lil sebastian

I think the last season is fine. The worst season is definitely the first one.

The first is alright but is a very different style of humour. It's more cute than funny. With the second they figured out the potential of all the characters and went straight into giving each of them some great scenes to shine. The only character in the entire series that was bad was the dude they replaced with Ben. Bringing him and Rob Lowe in just cemented it as one of the best cast of characters ever.
