A little meh on this one. Don't like overly bitchy Leslie. Don't like overly obnoxious April. Kristen Bell looked like hell. Ron off the grid was silly. Actually, I didn't like this episode.

I loved Ron's vine. The "man" photo. "Why is everyone so bad at eating?"

That was good. Loved the Chris Bosh cameo. Ron's vine was superb.

Not their best but I still enjoyed it.
The Chris Bosh cameo was the best part.
I also liked Tom and Donna's love for social media. I know plenty of people like that so I got a kick out of it.

Yeah, I kind of hated this one. Leslie is usually a bit annoying, that's part of the character but she was extremely ****y and obnoxious this time, same for April. I even found Ron annoying, and Ron is never anything but awesome. I also really, really hate any jokes involving Twitter or Facebook, or Vine - whatever the hell that is, I don't even know that one. They've shown Tom and Donna being obsessed with social media stuff before and I hated it then too. They do seem like douchey people who'd be really into that stuff, but it doesn't make it any less irritating. This was a rare total dud for this show.

I liked it though it might not been the best episode of the series but any parks and rec episode is welcome.
Aaron Sorkin said it is hip and has heart.

Gee, ya think? It felt like a long WP8/Nokia commercial. A Surface tablet even made an appearance. I like the Lumias, but wow.
April I find grating. Her shtick has gotten old and she's such a one-note character, and so is the actress.
I really think this needs to be the last season. With characters leaving and many major storylines already accomplished, it's starting to feel like the new storylines are being forced.
