Laugh Out Loud Funny

[TiffanyT23 · 10/10 · 21 May 2014]

To be honest, I only started watching this show online because I am a binge-watcher and was running out of popular sitcoms. Frankly, it seemed like a less-funny Office spin-off at first glance, so I did not have high hopes. By the fourth season, however, I found myself caught up in the stories of these quirky characters. This episode was the first one that made me laugh out loud several times, while still managing to keep the characters engaging and lovable. It's funny without turning the main characters into fools, which is a hard line to walk. I enjoyed it so much that I took the time to write my first review. I may never become the biggest fan of this series, but this episode will stand out for me as one of the most enjoyable I've seen.

Champion is a Good Boy.

That is all. He is a really good doggo.

Also I really liked this episode and I'm surprised nobody broke a bone slipping on that ice. So much for getting on their feet.

LoL

Physical comedy was on point and I rolled on floor of laughing :D The thing about this show is despite other comedy shows it has lesser bad episodes and almost always enjoyable to audience.

This is a cure to depression

I saw this episode maybe 10 times, and the ice rink scene probably 25. I laugh until I have a belly ache. I want to express my gratitude to the creators, cast and crew who made this gem possible. Everytime I'm feeling like I'm completely stuck in life, I watch this, reminding me that if Leslie could make it to that podium, and if Ben could realize his claymash' was actually a cry for help, I too, can make it out of this funk. Because it's not like we are actually making it out alive of this circus, folks. If you stop taking yourself so seriously life is so so much easier. I honestly think this episode is one of television's greatest moment. Thank you.

The most disagreeable episode I've seen so far

[WalterMittee · 25 May 2016]

Everything about this episode was completely uncomfortable to watch. From the incredibly uncomfortable to watch events that occurred at Leslie's rally, to Andy's constant child-like behavior, this episode was nearly impossible to watch. There are scenes with Andy and April's dog that are equally disturbing. Even Leslie's manic controlling behavior is becoming too much to bear and her preoccupation with Ann is starting to become overbearing as well. I'm also not too sure how much longer the joke about Gerry's ineptitude can go on but that is getting old too. I really loved this show, especially the opening sequence in season one when they had the show's logo come in on one of musical cues. But in season two, they took that away and the show's logo appears right away, before it did in season one, losing a ton of impact.
