"Parks and Recreation" is the funniest show on TV at the moment.

I am not! And it is! "30 Rock" is very funny. Love "The Office" but it is not what it was at its Season 2-3 peak.

I don't understand the love for 30 Rock.

It's in it's own league for major network comedy, IMO.

To be honest, I feel the same way about The Office.

Michael Scott has absolutely 0 credibility as a real manager.

I get the humor of The Office and find it pretty funny but Steve Carrell ends up just annoying me for the most part which is a pretty big obstacle to overcome.

Been watching the new season of Weeds. I'm glad there's more Andy, but I really hope Kevin Nealon is somehow in this season.

I love The Office, I love Parks and Rec, and I love Community. I can't stand 30 Rock for some reason. Steve Carell and Amy Poehler may be over the top, but the rest of the characters are fairly realistic. None of the characters or situations in 30 Rock are realistic. It relies too much on Alec Baldwin's humor, which I can't stand.
