I think a big part of the reason for moving it to 10 was so they could get away with more; they even made a joke about it during the first 10pm episode. Either way, I guess I'm too desensitized because I don't notice it being all that much edgier.

As for the P&R vs Community debate - I think when Community is on its game in full on self-aware, pop culture-referential mode it can be one of the funniest/smartest shows on TV. But for week to week consistency I have to give the edge to Parks & Rec. The characters are just becoming so well-rounded and funny without seeming to be too stereotypical of a normal sitcom.
Plus, it doesn't hurt that Ron Swanson is now my official life coach. Just look at the signature I've been using for the last few weeks...

I really liked it too. It's almost like a mystery novel. There were a few plot holes here and there and I hope they create some more tension but overall I think it has a really good tone and story (then again there was a massive thunder storm outside as I was watching last night so that probably helped).

AMC is really bringing it with their shows!

I DVR'd The Killing and The Borgias. Looking forward to catching both

Loving Parks & Rec...DJ Roomba!!!!!

I know I was watching it my basement with my surrond sound took me a bit to realize it was not the show but outside making the thunder.

The show remind me of Heavy Rain the video game. I seriously could have kept watching it for another few hours if it when on.

Yeah it sucks Mad Men won't be back until 2012, but starting this summer you can stream old episodes on NetFlix!

Yeah cool, I'm planning on diving in once it's available. It's one of those shows I missed out on but definitely want to see.

Not to take anything away from AMC, especially after watching The Killing (twice), but this is why you need HBO in 10 days time:

Game of Thrones

I guess you didn't hear but they did get a deal worked out with Matthew Weiner and AMC worked out a new deal. The show is going to run for three more seasons and he'll be the showrunner for at least the next two with an option for the third. The only thing that sucks is that because it took so long to work everything out season 5 won't air until March 2012.
