TV Junkie: Anticipation of Thursday's 'Parks and Recreation'

NBC's "Parks and Recreation" premieres on Thursday @ 8:30pm
We know it's a couple days away but we couldn't help talk up this Thursday night's NBC lineup: "The Office" will be back with 2 brand new episodes at 8pm and 9pm with the series premiere of Amy Poehler's highly anticipated "Parks and Recreation" sandwiched in between the two at 8:30pm. Check out the website of Pawnee, Indiana, the location of "Parks and Recreation" and of course the video snippets.

We can't wait because there haven't been many options for programming this week.

News from Renewaland: TV Land orders 3rd season of "High School Reunion" with a Las Vegas high school as its target.

Also in news: Boston NBC WHDH has officially bowed under pressure to run Jay Leno's new show. Seems like kind of a shame in our book.

Yay for Fringe and Yay for Parks & Rec, even if it will be Tivo'd cause it's, well, Seder that night.

I promise not to spoil it Zach

Calling all Reaper fans! Our show needs our help. The creators are leaving, and while this doesn't look good for our show, you can still let the CW know you want Reaper to continue even without them.

Domestic and International fans, use email:

feedback@CWTV.com

http://www.cwtv.com/feedback/comments

Please don't stay silent. They'll never know how much you'd like Reaper to stay if you never tell them. Executive Producer Tom Spezialy's still around, and lots of shows do just fine even after a change in the guards.

Domestic fans: since snail mail campaigns work best, here's the address for Dawn Ostroff at the CW:

Reaper
Attn: Dawn Ostroff
CW Network
3300 W. Olive Avenue
Burbank, CA 91505


Please consider taking a moment to send in a letter or postcard. Even as simple a line as "please renew Reaper" helps. And spread the word!
