I hope that Pikitis makes an encore appearance this season.

Does Ron actually have multiple brothers working at Very Good? I loved the confuzzled look on Ben's face.
The Wyatt triplets being absolute monsters seems perfect. Poncho!!!
Loved the various activist groups criticizing Leslie, especially the Men's Rights guy. "Men have had a rough time since just recently!" Hah! And as always Brandi Maxxxx is there to support Leslie, thereby making the situation much worse.
My favourite moment of episode 2 was Madeleine Albright lamenting the loss of her waffle to Leslie. I just realised in this episode that Leslie's aggressive friendliness reminds me of Taylor Swift. Her eagerness to love you into submission is sweet, but also terrifying.

This show is great at running jokes.
I like the way they have incorporated the kids. You know they have them and they're seen once in a while, but they haven't taken over the show.

Slowing starting to wrap up the show. Makes me sad.

And Bill Murray as the mayor! I can't believe next week is the series finale. I am going to miss this show so much.

The finale was a bit of a mess. I couldn't keep track of 2017, 2022, 2023...
They should have just picked one date in the future and showed where everybody wound up and where they were going from there.
I liked that they showed Leslie becoming so accomplished. I was kind of expecting that they were going to make her the first woman President. It’s possible they did and I missed it.
Andy and April gave their son the same name Chris Pratt gave his son. That was nice.
Harris Wittels, who just died from a heroin overdose, really was a major part of that show. His name is on every episode and I saw a rerun the other day where he had a bit part. The little memorial message they tacked on at the end was perfunctory, but I guess he didn’t really give them much time to do something elaborate. The ending was abrupt anyway – it felt like NBC didn’t give them enough time.

I thought the finale was a lovely way to end the series. Not as funny as previous season enders, but it was funny enough and successfully let viewers know that these characters would all be ok in a way that felt pretty true to each character.
Again, not a gut buster of an episode, but there were still bits that I found delightful. I didn't really need a Craig flash forward, but I loved that Ron was Typhoon's best man. And Winds of Tremorrah was a great detail. ("Excuse me, it's ninth highest-selling multi-player figurine-based strategy fantasy sequel game in history.") And Tom needing to recalibrate his quiz. I was happy to see final appearances from Kyle and Shawna Malwae-Tweep. If only they could have squeezed Pikitis and Sewage Joe in there this season.
I already miss it. I haven't ever watched the first five episodes of season one, so I might do a rewatch starting from the beginning.

I miss it as well, it was one of those rare quirky shows that comes along every now and then.

I finally watched season 1 and it wasn't as bad as I remembered. I think at the time I thought it was trying too hard to be The Office. I think I needed The Office to be over for awhile before I could enjoy this.
