This is not usually my thing but i am really enjoying Blown Away on Netflix, Yes its a reality show but i am fascinated by glass blowing, and the things they can create in a few hours is amazing
Cheers. Have been smashing some heavier shows and saw your recommendation.

I think Kryal Castle was the first time I saw glass blowing and have always loved the art of it

And OMG Elliot looks like Gary Abblett jr
 
Stick with it. Season 2 is where it gets good and only got better as the seasons went by.
Garrett is keeping me engaged, and the whole Amy/Jonah thing is good enough for me to keep going. I do wonder when the divorce comes for Amy.

Can it be the poor man's version of something if it came first?
In this case I reckon it can be. It's literally the same show in which the creators said they learned from their previous mistakes and found ways to improve it (eg don't make it documentary style, make the occupation of the workplace more exciting, make the characters good at their jobs).

Watching both shows you notice they rehash lots of story lines/episode ideas in B99. Also lots of character parallels, most of which are improved / funnier in B99 IMO.

For me they are:

Jake - Leslie (A huge factor for whether people like or dislike B99 seem to hinge on their feelings towards Andy Samberg, I personally like him)
Captain Holt - Ron (both the dry delivery senior figures, I love Ron but Holt edges him for me)
Amy - Ben (both the nerdy significant others of the main protagonist).
Boyle - Tom
Rosa - April (Obvious character parallel and for me the only clear win to Parks and Rec, April way funnier).
Hitchcock and Scully - Jerry

I have more, but the links start getting more tenuous :p

Tom and Boyle are nothing alike, and Tom is a significantly better character
