#tv: parks & rec

[thanatos-moon]

there’s something so magical about sitcoms…..they bring me so much comfort….whoever invented sitcoms thank you for your service I literally don’t know what I’d do without them god bless

parks and rec out of context, agatha all along edition, april and jen's version.

april and jen could've been the most chaotic team ever.

No one — I said, no one — will be able to convince me that Isabela Merced isn't perfect to be an agathario's daughter, and I'm claiming that for my story.

Like, LOOK AT THIS:

I'm not crazy, this makes perfect sense! THOSE BIG BROWN EYES, DOE EYES!! She's very good for this role! I'm happy to have finally found an actress for my fancast.

"Ah, but Isabela Merced is already part of the MCU, she played Anya in Madame Web"

I DON'T WANNA KNOW, I DON'T CARE, I DON'T GIVE A SHIT! I'M GOING TO USE THIS FANCAST BECAUSE IN MY HEAD IT MAKES A LOT OF SENSE!

By the way, what's the fancast of your agathario OC's people? I feel like we're outnumbered because I at least don't see many people creating agathario oc's, but it would be interesting to talk about it.

-

Bonus: She looks a lot with April, I remembered that because I read a fanfic (WHICH I LOVED, BY THE WAY) of April Ludgate x Jennifer Barkley. So, author, whoever you are, this is for you <3

Updates: I FOUND THE FANFIC! It's called "checkmate!" By fqrcefields (sqyyadina)! Ugh, I loved this fanfic with all my might! If anyone knows the author's @ here on tumblr, please tag here!!

Am I tripping or does Millie’s dad kinda look like Nick offerman?

[driftingoffthegrid]

my sister just informed me that she doesn’t like to watch shows on her phone

funny the variety you find even within families because watching sitcoms until 5 am was an essential part of my development that legitimately saved my life

saw someone on twt say they’re tired of JAW winning awards in the comedy category and it disrespects real comedic talent … raise your hand if you’ve been personally victimized by “is the bear a comedy” discourse?

love a mean girls reference lol but in all seriousness, to me, the bear is a comedy similar, but not identical, to the way shameless was considered a comedy. the easiest way to explain is basically what Joshua Jackson said when asked “is the bear a comedy?” at an awards show last year (I wanna say it was the Emmy’s , it’s on Reddit for sure).

i can understand wanting to call it a “dramedy” because there are serious situations that happen (grief, anxiety, depression, family trauma, etc) and there’s quite a bit of yelling between everyone but to ignore it being comedic is …. not it

there are little things said and done by everyone in almost every episode that’s funny. i think people expect to be laughing every few seconds or full on belly laughing as if they were watching standup or a sitcom (even then good sitcoms like Modern Family, Parks and Rec, etc have a lot of heart). but that’s not what the bear was ever meant to give.

like sorry but let’s not act like “everyday, Jeffrey ballet?” (Tina) or “duh! duh? duh! duh? don’t say duh! DUH!” (Nat & Carm) wasn’t funny. or “of the place? is that what you think mis en place means?” this shit is funny. you may not be cracking up with tears in your eyes but you can laugh. through all the chaos that happens at the bear, those characters are still regular people and people say funny shit that makes us laugh even in serious situations, dare i say especially, when things are serious. like very “laughter is the medicine”

You know the Parks and Rec quote that’s been meme’d to death:

Andy: “Aww… babe, you had a cruusssh on me! That’s embarrassing!”

April: “We’re married.”

Andy: “Still!”

This time its Aubrey Plaza’s Rio who will be the one saying: “Aww… babe, you had a crush on me! That’s embarrassing!”

I love the flip personality wise, because between Agatha and Rio — Agatha is definitely the grumpier of the two.

In terms of being unhinged though? They match each other freak’s so well.
