I BOUNCED UP AND DOWN IN MY SEAT FOR A FULL MINUTE, NO JOKES. ONLY A FEW WEEKS TO GO!

My thoughts on various casting spoilers:
( Parks & Recreation )

ALMOST ALMOST ALMOST!!! *EXPLODES* I am so ridiculously excited even if the press release is the vaguest one I've ever seen *g* EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE.

WE ARE SO DAMN CLOSE NOW. I AM IN EXTRA NEED FOR THAT TIME-CHANGING REMOTE THAT WE CAME UP WITH, BECAUSE ~3 WEEKS HAS NEVER SEEMED SO LONG AWAY.

This is going to be so epic. BRING IT ON.

OMG ASHES!! WOOOOO!
OH GENE. I'm so sexually excited right now!!!

Shit I just remembered the ending to last season. SO MUCH TO EXPLAIN. This is the only show that I point blank refuse to read any spoilers for. For me the drama of it lies in NOT HAVING A FUCKING CLUE WHAT'S GOING ON.

THIS. I AM GOING TO GO CRAZY WITH EXCITEMENT.

IKR? Last series ended on such a crazy note, and I have no idea how things are going to turn out. I try my best to avoid spoilers as well. Sadly, however, I can't resist. Being the last series, I'm going to be strong, dammit!

Not having a clue has never been so awesome. The idea that, by the end of the series, we might actually understand is so freaking weird!

Oh wow, I thought Rob Lowe was just guest-starring. Not sure how I feel about him actually doing an extended run. Also, the show already has seven leads and a few supporting people. Maybe they can get rid of Mark for Rob's character!

omnomnom17 March 4 2010, 15:43:53 UTC

I was thinking the same thing with the number of characters- there's not much room at the moment for another character, and I can't see Rob Lowe agreeing to play anything other than a main character. I'll be very interested to see how they work that out.

Maybe they can get rid of Mark for Rob's character!
Oh, good plan! Mark is probably the only character I don't care about at all.

It's possible that Rob Lowe is doing a recurring role, like Amy Ryan on The Office. Who knows?

Mark is probably the only character I don't care about at all.

Same here, and I do like that actor--he just is not a good fit for the show, and there's nothing interesting about Mark.

omnomnom17 March 4 2010, 16:21:20 UTC

True! I find it interesting that Rob Lowe's doing it at all- one of the reasons he's leaving Brothers and Sisters is supposedly because he doesn't have a big enough role in it. I figured he'd move on to something where he could be the main character.

Yeah, I really like Paul Schneider- he was fantastic in Bright Star, amongst other things- but Mark just annoys me for some reason. His character is just really dull.

Sam Sam Sam Seaborn...I miss that Rob Lowe. I got hooked on Brothers & Sisters last summer for a bit but man his character was boring.

I miss 30 Rock so bad. UGH Jam baby I hate you already.

omnomnom17 March 4 2010, 16:18:37 UTC

He is, isn't he? For the first 2 seasons, they make him out to be the most perfect guy ever, but that makes his character so dull. I'm looking forward to seeing how he fits in in Parks and Rec- hopefully his character has more substance!

Me too! I couldn't care less about The Office at the moment. I can't believe the Jam baby is preventing us from getting more 30 Rock. SO UNFAIR.

i love 30 rock

It's so awesome, isn't it? Can't wait until next week when we finally get a new episode!
