Jokes were funnier and hit more frequently characters worked better and/or were made better use of and the cast generally seemed to respond to the material with good delivery and timing. I'm not sure why, but moving into the second half of the season things started to get tighter. The show is funny but in the first half of the season it is sporadically funny and amusing for the rest of the time and some of the material felt a little forced or the characters unnatural. We retain the same characters and we have some of the same running plots even though we get more into a distinct story- per-week flow which suits the sitcom better.
The second season did feel like a massive jump away from that for the most part. When I watched the first season of Parks and Recreation it did not really wow me so much as show potential that it wasn't really fulfilling. The third and fourth seasons are in my opinion, the best seasons in the entire series, so if you thought season 2 was great, just wait until you see what's next. We have seen the show blossom into all this in just Season 2 alone, and things get even more funny and the show expands to even more heights in the next seasons. It has that perfect combination of funny and sweet, and takes place in a town that is almost like a character in its own right. Parks and Recreation is almost like a live-action version of The Simpsons. With that being said, I think the show really came into its own and has proven to be extremely original and fresh, unlike most other live-action sitcoms. I mean, when you have a season that is literally 18 episodes longer, it is bound to be an improvement. Also his gun-fire ring tone is amazing! Season 2 as a whole is a major improvement over Season 1. My favorite moments in all the "government shutting down debacle", are Ron' child-like glee over the entire situation. And conflict between Leslie and the new state auditors are reaching a boiling point as the Pawene government has temporarily been shut down. Tom's new relationship with Lucy is beginning to heat up. We see April and Andy's "will-they wont-they" storyline reach its conclusion. "Freddy Spaghetti" is a pretty funny episode in its own right, but what it does best is provide closure for a lot of on-going storylines that ran throughout the season. The writers used traits like how caring and hard-working she is in comedic ways.
Even though they made her more smart, she became funnier as a character. A good example is main protagonist, Leslie Knope, who acted very air-headed and foolish in the first season, but has become a much more intelligent and dedicated government employee. I think the biggest improvement is how the characters developed and some even changed drastically from how they were depicted in Season 1. They found the right tone, the writing became much stronger, and the characters really came into their own.

With Season 2, the writers were given the opportunity of having a full season to help build upon the much shorter Season 1. What a long, but entertaining journey it has been. So we have made it to the end of Season 2.
