I have heard of this show ever since it first debuted and never gave it a second thought, that is, until the 3rd week of Feb 2016 and IFC had been showing a mini-marathon. I saw maybe 5 minutes of 1 episode and I've since been hooked crazy-obsessed-style. Portlandia has exponentially become my new "Comfort Show"! I absolutely LOVE it!

Some elements of the episode cadence, story-telling, and style are reminiscent of "Mr. Show with Bob and Dave", Despite this it's still fair to acknowledge, it is one of the most original shows on television. Not too mention undeniably and pesistently entertaining. Never saw an episode that wasn't either very interesting or very funny. The norm being both. It is high American humor, that works. With the exception of the aforementioned gem from Bob Odenkirk and David Cross, Portlandia is in a class all it's own.

Well met Portland. Carrie and Fred are an immaculate team. Im totally crushing on Carrie tho. What a creative comedy force these two are. Best Lorne Michaels produced show Ive watched in a long time. This series is definitely going to my Drop Box storage for good.
