Great premiere. Tons of laugh out loud moments. I'm glad they gave Jerry the giant penis. He gets dumped on soo much on this show.

Yeah, I noticed Rob Lowe's hair right away too. WTF?

And another vote for Ron Swanson as best TV character ever.

A welcome return last night. Not sure what's up with Rob Lowe's hair though. Loved Tom's leopard print loafers

i just did a little research. apparently rob lowe was doing a tv movie where he played drew peterson and he ended up dying his hair blonde. i wonder if this had something to do with it.

And also in the cut away after he said that line, Tom was among them as well and had a funny look since Chris included him in the women.

Also loved the little glance that Leslie gave to Ron's feet after he told her the toe story. Little things like that are great. This show and Modern Family are SO good at fast a furious little jokes, comments, looks, etc. I feel like I really need to pay attention so I don't miss a gem.

Also, my recording cut off just after Tammy 1 told April to sit up. April looked at her chest and it looked like she was going to say something. What did I miss?

After April sits up, Andy walks in and says something like, "Honey, your boobs"

Ron: "You choose, Knope: hunting, fishing or drinking."
Leslie: "I'd really love to shoot a gun right now."
Ron: "Fishing it is."




It also cracked me up that the sewer guy went to Sarah Lawrence College. Just such a random thing.

This show picked up right where it left off.

Great return for this show! Oh, I missed it. Ron Swanson was predictably hilarious. Quite a few great moments in this one. But how the hell could a show with such attention to detail not address Chris' strange looking hair? I expected a comment about some bizarre health thing he was doing.

Good episode.

Lowe was definitely wearing a wig. They couldn't make it look less obvious? What's the budget on this show?

She was on Conan recently. Not only did she look great, she was very entertaining. The interview on YouTube is reversed to avoid the copyright police:

She is so hot, but I wonder if she acts like that all the time? Would probably get annoying.

Aubrey cut her hair, grew her bangs out and is wearing them to the side. Rob grew his hair out and is wearing it down. I cut hair for a living, so that's what i noticed right away. I love this show.

she is quite entertaining once she gets going...if you haven't you should check out her interview with marc maron: http://www.wtfpod.com/podcast/episod...-_aubrey_plaza - she really gets comfortable and talks about some personal stuff

Hilarious ep.

Ron's escape stash and the way he accessed it was awesome. I loved how all his hair grew out when Leslie arrived at the cabin.
