Rewatching parks and rec and love that Ben Schwartz and Jenny Slate play brother and sister. I know they’re acting but their mannerisms are on point and they look like they could easily pass for siblings

EDIT: can’t change the title. Jean-Ralphio

It's Criminal to cut the best scene of the entire series imo

I enjoy the clever humor the show has to offer about politics and government in general

In 04x16 Jerry turns 64 (or 16) whilst his actor Jim O’Heir was barely 53 in real life!

I am convinced the girl who loves the hiking trails in episode 3? Of season 2 “the setup” is Vanessa Bayer and my husband is convinced this is someone else. This character is not credited from anything that I can find on the internet (I looked for about 10 min 😅) so I have to know… who is this actress?

Rewatching Wilfred after a long time and I noticed

I apologise if this has been asked before, but is Dr Saperstein (father of the most terrible children in the world) a reference to Dr Saperstein in Rosemary's Baby? Rosemary's cultish preterm doctor...?

Rewatching parks and rec and got to the scene where everyone tells Leslie what their jobs will be to run her campaign. Such a sweet underrated moment

Gotta be Ken Hotate in my humble opinion.Seeing him play white people like a fiddle and helping Leslie was always great to watch.

full disclosure: i love the Harvest Festival episode (it’s probably in my top 5-10 episodes) and i will always love it for a myriad of reasons (lil sebastian, ken hotate, the atrocities in blue — i could go on)

but the more i’ve rewatched it, the more that Ben claiming he’s the curse and leaving feels really random and out of character:

• there’s almost no line or build-up to highlight Ben feeling this way until he leaves—throughout the day, he’s the one reassuring Leslie, then the reporter mentions that he seems like a jinx, the power goes out, and Ben’s like OKAY I’M OUT
• he’s generally pretty loyal and committed in the rest of the Harvest Festival arc (through awkward moments like the media blitz) and it’s weird just seeing him yeet himself out of the picture when Leslie likely would need his help most
• it wouldn’t really matter if he was or wasn’t with Leslie when she visits Ken at the casino so there’s no reason he had to leave from a plot perspective
• after the festival kicks off, he comes back and apologizes and seems to be totally past thinking he was the curse without us seeing how he came to that conclusion (aside from the festival going on as planned)
• above all, he’s a pretty logical dude who seems like it would take a lot more to convince he was cursed

i guess you could read it as anyone could be driven to think they’re bad luck if enough bad things happen (and Ben sort of being sucked into believing in curses after being dumbfounded that Pawnee is so superstitious) but it’s always felt like such a random and underdeveloped plot point they could’ve done more with in an otherwise stellar episode.

anyways it is NOT that deep and i still love the episode but i was just curious if anyone else had ever thought noticed this and had thoughts 😅

I'll reply as Craig

I was really hoping this would be a double billing, but sadly it’s not.
