P&R: S6E10 - Second Chunce
I’ve actually said this before, and now that I realize it, I’m not sure how to react.
I’ve said something similar about keeping someone’s secret.
Based on this screenshot the show looks like something I would enjoy, but when I’ve previously given it a shot I didn’t enjoy it at all … I’d try it again now but I don’t think it’s on any of the streaming services I have.
How far did you get with it? As with many shows, I find the first season a bit of a slog, but it starts to get going in the second season.
I don’t remember for sure, but I think I got partway into season two.
With both this and The Office, I got the recommendation to give it a season or two. In most cases I never really felt that good advice … I’m willing to give a show a few episodes, I know pilots are often rough, the cast needs to get comfortable with each other, etc. … But generally if I’m not enjoying a show maybe three episodes in it never grabs me.
The one exception to that that I’ve encountered was Adventure Time, but that’s because they changed their philosophy in season two.
However, I’m more patient now. I also spend a lot of time bedridden, giving me more time to experiment with media. I’d be willing to give some shows, like this one, another shot if they were on any of the services I have. I know pirating is an option but I don’t do that anymore (not expressing any judgement of those who do).
The advice I’ve heard for Parks and Rec is to straight up skip season 1. If you ever try again, I’d say you won’t miss anything crucial by going in cold in season 2.
I shall take that into consideration - thank you!
