It's fascinating to see the show finding it's feet. Amy Poehler, Rashina Jones, Aubrey Plaza and Nick Offerman were all very strong - this season sees the blossoming of Chris Pratt and Aziz Ansari, both of whom have been made a lot more positive and active in their goals, whether it's to get Jones back (Pratt) or become a tycoon (Ansari). Paul Schneider's character is sidelined into a solely romantic plot with Jones and given minimal screen time; a harsh decision but the right one because in one or two eps he spills into wacky storylines and threatens to bring the whole mood down. He simply didn't fit.
there's cute romantic arcs with Justin Theroux and Louis C.K. Natalie Morales is cute but I feel the role of Ansari's long term girlfriend could have been really special. Some stunningly good guest characters. And at the end for the last two eps when Adam Scott and Rob Lowe join you go "yes, they've got the combination right".
