> [@Joey\_P](#): > > They’re both very good and certainly worth watching, however, most people do feel the need to push themselves past the first handful of episodes. This is especially true with The Office. Which, because of the nature of the British version that they copied, is almost difficult to watch just due to the cringe factor. > > From an unrelated creator, 30 Rock is kinda on par with all those shows as well. The first season of Parks & Rec was kind of cringey because they were trying to be too much like The Office. They toned it down for S2, then once Rob Lowe and Adam Scott came on board and that Brendanowitz guy disappeared, the show really hit it’s stride ---

> [@Shoeless](#): > > The first season of Parks & Rec was kind of cringey because they were trying to be too much like The Office That’s one of those things that I know, but I don’t recall ever having any problem with the first season of Parks and Rec. The Office, OTOH, I practically tried to crawl out of my skin when Michael made Ryan watch as he pretended to fire Pam. ---

I feel ya. I started rewatching Steven Universe on Hulu… They have seasons 1-4…the movie and then the short follow-up series. Season 5? The last season? Before the movie and the follow-up series? Eff you. You have to find that somewhere else… ---

> [@kayaker](#): > > Wow. I watched the first two episodes and bailed. To me it wasn’t funny enough to be a comedy, dramatic enough to be a drama. Does it get better or is it just not my cuppa? The seven seasons of B99 are in my top 5 of my funniest shows of all time. [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/god-damn-it-netflix-where-s-the-rest-of-brooklyn-99/999412.md?page=1)
