A day after compiling the best Season 4 Swansonisms, the Parks finale gave us arguably the finest Swansonism of the season and I feel compelled to lead with it this morning. I was prepared to mourn our favorite Thursday night shows today but it looks like they'll all be back in shortened form for one final season. So even though NBC appears dead set on being the CBS of network television instead the Apple of network television, let's save the saccharine for when they're actually gone and concentrate instead on mind-melding group psychiatric visits, wrap-up raps, and the future of the Pawnee Parks and Recreation department.
Thoughts on last night's comedies in ten words or less...
- Community - Self aware clip show meets mental thriller parody? Only Community.
- 30 Rock - Crisspoints System FTMFW
- Office - Me seconds after deciding I'd watch.
- Parks & Rec - Now THAT'S how you deliver the obvious outcome. Dammit, Jerry.

Andy Dwyer: Police Officer has me very excited. For 13 f-ing episodes.
I’m thinking in the series finale they should transfer him to Winterfell.
BOOM! Full Parks order. [warmingglow.uproxx.com]
11 Whiskey Ron is the best Ron. The director’s cut is on NBC’s website and has a few more Swansonisms and Dwyerisms.
Am I the only one who was kinda hoping Leslie would lose by one vote so it’d be all Jerry’s fault?
It’d be better if they tied and Jerry was the reason she was jailed.
Must. Stop. Watching. Nº7. & 9.
In Abed’s defense, anybody who thinks Brett Ratner is the next Speilberg is indeed a bad person.
I’m gonna start slapping people. Because Game Of Thrones and Community have given me the courage to do so.
We can only hope Louis C.K. comes back as Andy’s mentor.
