Give me all the Ron Swanson clips you have. Wait. I worry what you heard was "Give me a lot of Ron Swanson clips". What I said was "Give me all the Ron Swanson clips you have." Do you understand?
My absolute favourite thing about Parks and Rec, is the fact that Ron managed to keep Duke Silver secret in such a small place, for so long when really Duke Silver is just Ron in a hat.
You have to remember that Ron goes to three places most of the time: His job, his house and Food n Stuff. Occasionally the barber, but I'm sure very little people see Ron Swanson (courtesy of April). Makes sense to me
I have cried twice in my life. Once when I was seven and hit by a school bus, and again when I found out there was a full hour of pure Ron Swanson clips.
when i was 14 i saw a friend get run over in the school parking lot. yeah turns out there's a reason they tell us not to walk in front of the parked busses.
Ron and April is unequivocally the best of any relationship on the entire show and I'll die on that hill. Their father/daughter dynamic is just perfect
is that because in modern america all content is reruns that get progressively worse and you've given up hope of having something better so you've settled?
@@drunkenmmamaster419 His range of facial expressions when he does it is what makes the scene. He's like "This still seems disgusting but eh, it'll do"
Diane is very lovable. She's a salt of the Earth (self possessed) woman at the top of her field. Which is scientifically the most magnetically attractive thing possible.
Ron: 23:18 “ I don’t know what happened. I declined his invitation, he started laughing and the next thing I knew we were at lunch. Did he drug me?” 😂😂😂
It's the best but I'm a firm believer that Ron would learn to respect cats if he had one. A silent, tiny hunter that demands you respect its boundaries and only shows affection on its terms. Cats are great.
@@citrusbitten8449when you put it that way, that makes a lot of sense. I totally see him silently warming up to cats if say, Diane and the girls had one. He'd respect that the cat doesn't care if he respects it or not.
The lady running around the circle desk...most underrated side character on the show. "Sir, Sir?! Are you aware there is waste in your water system?"😂😂😂
What killed me about that lady is that she admits there's a sign that says "do not drink sprinkler water, so I made Sun tea with it and now I have an infection". The sarcasm is through the roof with this show.
@@jonny-b4954 I'm pretty sure it's Sun Tea, it was a big trend a while ago (I think around when this was getting filmed) and then there were people saying it's dangerous because it can grow bacteria. So her saying she made Sun Tea with poop water is even funnier.
i watched so many highlights of ron swanson, when i finally started watching park and recreation i was shocked that leslie is the main character with the most screentime xD
The kid that used to work for me would always get everyone on every job site calling me Ron Swanson, but I had never watched this show until recently, so I never understood why. I would have to be the bearded version of Ron. Same diet, pretty much the same skill sets, mostly similar beliefs, just maybe not quite as strict as Ron, and that would definitely be my dream job at the end. I guess I understand now.
It's honestly a huge compliment. Ron is a character with many qualities, from being a great human being to a great friend. He has his flaws like anyone else, but he is a loyal and sincere person.
37:50 Love the dichotomy. Leslie is disgusted like normal. Andy is amused and amazed like a clueless child, and April is borderline turned on and/or fascinated.
Ron's government lesson was one of the best, most accurate practical lessons I've ever seen. Not sure about his land mine gift at the end there, but his request for an autograph is an absolute legend. I love that man. hahaha
Forgive my emotional comment but P & R is quite possibly the most wonderful comedy I've ever been privileged in my 60 years to experience. A true gem of writing and casting. Thank you for what you created.
It's worth watching the show in its entirely. It's well written and super funny. All the characters and side characters are funny and interplay together.
@@owenmills3517 I think the first season is a little hard to get through, but it's helpful to watch in order to understand basic details about the characters. Get through that, and seasons 2 through the end will easily snag you for life.
When I had never seen this show, my oldest son told me, "Hey Dad, you would love Ron Swanson and Parks and Recreation." It's good for one to remember some of the best compliments they've gotten.
His adaptation going from a whipped mamma's boy, to a man who sacrifices his beliefs for the woman he loves in hopes of living longer and being happier, is my favorite point of growth for Ron. Xena was the best thing to happen to him.
22:46 okay but this actually flew over my head the first time I watched it 😂 the transition was so seamless, the way they continue Chris's laugh into the restaurant scene (which distracts us from the change in background noise) and starting close up on Ron's face so we don't notice the environment until the camera pulls out. Chris goes "we should order" and most people would be like "hm? order? weren't they at the government building?" but then they have Chris continue on about his order and we as an immersed audience try to focus on the details of the order instead of the transition. and it's not until Ron gives the play by play that people go "oh what?" and replay the scene, realizing what just happened (it still took me watching this compilation to figure it out 😭) what an incredible gag, I wanna know who came up with it
Ron paddled Pawnee Lake every day until his death at the age of 97. On his death bed, he ate the entirety of a 48 oz porterhouse and a bottle of Logavoulin 150 year old, barrel age, single malt. His final words were, "End of life." He took one last shot and leaned back in his bed. Tammy 1 then closes his eyes. The camera pans to Tammy 1 and reveals she hasn't aged a day. 😲
So after the US Office I was looking for a new light hearted show. I passed on P&R for a long time. Then one day I gave it a shot and was mesmerised by the cast, the witty writing, the heartfelt moments. All of it. Just a wonderful show. And of course, Ron Swanson, the best straight man ever to grace a US sit com.
Ron in this, Dwight in Office, Dina in Superstore, captain holt and Gina were perfect example of characters who took over the show even they were side character
Man that birthday celebration looks amazing. Steak, whiskey, a comfortable chair, solitude, the guarantee of no interruption, a good and treasured film, all provided by people who know you and care enough to make it happen for you. You couldn't ask for a better birthday than that.
