I cannot stand fart humor. Lazy, insulting, embarrassing. So I am impressed by Park's ability to make a prolonged farting sequence hilarious.

$500 was a great deal for the "good table." I'd buy it.

I have let my mustache grow for about three months in the past and it was a force to be reckoned with when eating, drinking beer, etc.

LOL It is hilarious when he reads tweats from female celebrities on Conan.

Don't want to see Ron do another double dude spoon on Fallon.



Did not expect a marriage proposal in this episode since it was not featured in any of the promos.

Is it just me or is Kathryn Hahn hot?

She seems average in the countless movies she has appeared in but in Parks and Rec WOW!

Definitely surprised by the proposal. Andy was awesome in Ron's office with the girls.

I thought Hahn looked pretty good on Free Agents, as well.

Definitely will have to re-watch the director's cut.

Fart attack...

Chris Pratt was looking chunkier in this episode.

For some reason I lost it when Leslie and Ann re-did the lease deal with Ann's music. Shouldn't have been as funny as I found it to be

Laughed a lot during this ep and totally did not see Ben's proposal coming. Good stuff!

Is it just me or did they miss a golden opportunity to dress up Lucy Lawless as Xena? PRINCESS warrior.

Was Ann supposed to be Lolo Jones? If so, that was brilliant. If not, a second missed opportunity.

The producer's cut was awesome. Am hoping this is a sign of more of these to come. A MAJOR plus of the online format is that they're no longer restricted to their 30 minutes including commercials.
