Confession Time

Out of all the addictions I've ever had, binge watching shows has always been one of my worst. There was, however, one show that takes the cake on having me hooked more than any other show. That for sure is "Parks and Recreation". For those who don't know, it was created by Greg Daniels, who also co-created the well known show "The Office". The style of comedy in "Parks and Rec", as it's called by fans, is very similar to "The Office", mostly dry with ridiculous situations. I originally started watching the show because a girl I was talking to recommended it. Although her and I didn't work out, it was okay, because I was pretty much in a full time relationship with the show once I started watching it. For anyone who likes amazing character development that will keep you laughing until the very last episode (because at the end, it turns from laughter to tears), it's easily addicting. I remember I would literally think about the show all the time and compare it to everything I was doing. While it was a super addiction at the time, I was able to kick it because eventually, you can only watch a show so many times. Even when I flip through Netflix now, if I pass the show there's a big part of me that wants to watch it. It's not that I want to watch the entire show, but there are those episodes that never get old that always get you sucked back in. One day, probably a rainy day when there's nothing to do but watch your favorite shows on Netflix in your favorite comfy clothes, I will watch this show all the way through again. I also plan on using this show to decide if I've found my soulmate or not, because if she doesn't, it's not meant to be, that is for sure.
