"PIKITIS!"

Just dropping by so I can tell more people who will be depressed with me about this - Parks and Recreation isn't coming back till midseason (i.e. NEXT JANUARY).
Agghhh. It's probably because of Amy's pregnancy, and that's a great enough reason, but I'm bummed because this show needs ratings and starting it midseason is just going to go "hey, guys, our show sucks enough that we didn't get to premiere it on time!"
No, not that, mostly I'm annoyed/sad that we need to go SEVEN MONTHS WITHOUT IT. Why do you do this to me, NBC!? If you cut down the number of episodes I will burn you to the ground, I promise.
ETA: I just realised this means all of you on my flist have more time to catch up with it. Do it.

It has a short season again, I think, and its ratings (which aren't good to begin with) will dip even further until NBC sees fit to pull the trigger. And they have been exceptionally trigger-happy lately, so I really fear for the show. I love it and its people too much for this!
2. The waiting is going to straight-up kill me too. Oh my god.
Thursday is going to hurt so bad.

Ughhh, NBC. You keep doing dumb things and it makes me want to punch you. I know it's mean of me, but if Outsourced could kind of be terrible maybe we could get this show back earlier.

... Outsourced will probably be terrible.
