I do think Parks and Recreation gets a lot better in subsequent episodes, starting in the second season; it never stopped making me uncomfortable occasionally, but the frequency of incidents went down considerably. They gradually transition from doing a lot of embarrassment humour or ironic humour in the style of The Office to doing more "our team of adorable misfits, we love them, they are silly." They never get quite to the level that Community hits, but sometimes they come close. So, if you're not squicked out by it, I do think it's worth going on and watching further. If nothing else, Leslie Knope ONLY GETS MORE AWESOME.

I think Community is coming back the first or second week of September! I cannot wait.
