    Was rewatching 30 rock and it's still funny until they decide to do a multi episode arc about fucking North Korea. Just skip em and it's alright.

    Community holds up though tbh. Still mad Netflix dropped my favorite episode because of chang's drow costume. What's worse is there's a literal depiction of brown face via Chevy Chase in a later episode and they didn't get rid of that one.

    Got the dean's best intro still though : https://youtu.be/qvzE64A28NI

      God damn, I loved that show for the first 3.5 seasons.

      I think P&R was a legitimately good show early on. The whole premise was that government is dysfunctional because of the contradictions in capitalism. A department dedicated to removing blight and creating parks cannot do the thing it is designed to do thanks to all the economic headwinds, the ideological poison, and the upper class apathy dragging it down. And the first season functionally concluded with a call to popular direct action.

      Had they run with that, rather than turning it into a big pile of tropes, maybe it also could have made it a full 3.5 season before going sour.

        Yeah they dropped that one for the drow costume and then kept the Chevy Chase in brown face episode from like one season later.
