When I say "stealing" I meant the majority of plot lines/jokes/etc. were copied directly from the UK version of the show. When they started branching out and doing their own thing in Season 2, the show got much better.
I know what you meant, that's why I was saying it was Ricky Gervais writing the same stuff to introduce the US to the comedy since most of the US hadn't seen the UK version.
I do agree, after the first season the show really hit its stride. While it wasn't as good later on as it once was, I still enjoyed it and they had some funny parts up through the last episode. It was a very well written and clever show. Luckily, there is still Parks and Rec to watch.
