Just got the finale of season 2 left and I'm all caught up. Hilarious show. Season 1 wasn't bad, but it really picks up in season 2. Great cast, though Ruxin & Taco always get me laughing the most. So many quotes I don't even know where to start.
I'm actually kinda glad the Entourage-like NFL cameos from the 1st season stopped, they were awkward. Can't wait for season 3, Dirty Randy aka Seth Rogan will be classic.
Got the afternoon off, just watched the final episode, solid. Haha I love that whole MMA gym scene with Rafi, so many quotes, I love what an over the top POS they made him on this show.
"When do we get to fight with the knife!??"
"After 9/11, I put on a cop's uniform, got craaazy p****. Never forget."
"Most of the fights I get in, to be honest with you, are with women. So I'm kinda learning their defences, y'know, weak spots...its erotic."
And I think I should change my fantasy football league so intead of $200, the winner gets to punch the loser in the face as hard as he can. Its a dominance league.
Calgarypuck has not steered me wrong so far as far as TV shows go. So I guess its off to Bestbuy after work today. The videos from Jon Lajoie on youtube have made me laugh. I love the hands commercial, i've watched quite a few times, when I need a giggle, lol.
I guess I have to get into Community as well. I've started taping the Parks and Rec repeats during this summer, and before they start I catch the end of Community, seemed like it'd be interesting. Seems like good ratings thus far.
About Parks and Rec... Was at a family BBQ this saturday, and my wife snapped a photo inside the womans bathroom. Paintied on the back of the door was Ron Swanson with RFS underneath. Funny stuff.
Just went through the first two seasons of it after hearing the thread was made. Loved it, and actually thought S1 was stronger then S2.
As for the bickering about what show is better, coming from a guy who enjoys Parks and Rec, Community and The League, I could really care less. All 3 shows make me laugh for a variety of reasons. I'm not sure why so many people need to argue at such great length about what show holds the title of "best comedy on tv."

If we did, the threads wouldn't be very good, now would they?
"The league is a good comedy, as is P&R, Community and Always Sunny"
"I agree"
"They are all good, let's not rank them and put them in order"
"Agreed - They are all watchable, that is enough for me"
"me too!"
Like others, I was looking for something to watch this summer and this thread gave me a reason to seek this show out. While it's a funny show, I don't think I'd go so far to call it the best comedy on tv. I don't even know if it's the best one on FX.
One thing the show made me realize is why I never participate in fantasy sports or pools -- I would be just like Taco during the first season's draft, bored by the third round, and completely disinterested before the season even starts.
Another thing I figured out while watching it is that the actress who plays Shiva is also the best part of the current season of True Blood -- the shapeshifter woman Sam is banging. God bless her willingness to do nude scenes. Actually, if it wasn't for her, I might have given up on the show this season, so it might not be a good thing.

Turn up the good, turn down the suck!
The show is funny, but not super funny. I find all the characters except Taco to be extremely annoying. Pete comes off as a Jason Bateman rip off which really bugs me. Ruxton gives off a PG-13 Bob Saget vibe too.
What a dumb place to start - season 1 is 6 eps long, go watch it first.
Go figure, anyways, I have seen season 1 and I am now giving season 2 a shot. The trip to Vegas was hard to watch. IMO. Season 1 was good, so far season 2 is not as good, to echo the sentiment of others.
