I understand that it's a ratings thing - it's depressing, but I get that it all comes down to that. The thing is, though, that Outsourced has the benefit of an Office lead-in, isn't as critically-acclaimed, and doesn't have nearly as strong and brilliant a cast as P&R. Plus P&R got a full-season order last May? Damn it, NBC!

Clearly I need to get immune to this kind of thing. :/
