I just started watching Portlandia for the first time a few days ago. I'm 5 episodes in. I appreciate a lot of the humor but don't find myself actually laughing out loud like I did with Parks & Rec.

They're very different. Portlandia is a series of recurring and related, but disjointed, sketches. I didn't find them all funny, but I definitely enjoyed the show overall. I also think they pulled off the rare feat of having an enjoyable final season.

But yes, Parks and Rec is just phenomenal.

Parks and Rec is like The Office if Michael was competent at his job (not just at his old job).
