Over seven hilarious seasons, Parks and Recreation (aka Parks and Rec) followed the misadventures of Leslie Knope (Amy Poehler), a perky and ambitious mid-level bureaucrat in the parks department of Pawnee, Indiana. While her dreams may be bigger than her political talents, Leslie never gives up hope, even when she probably should. Created by Greg Daniels (The Office, King of the Hill) and Michael Shur (The Office, SNL), and featuring a stellar cast of comedy greats including Rashida Jones, Aziz Ansari, Nick Offerman, Aubrey Plaza, Paul Schneider, Chris Pratt, Adam Scott, Rob Lowe, Jim O’Heir, Retta, and Billy Eichner, the award-winning Parks and Recreation is a genuinely funny comedy classic that stays funny no matter how much you watch it!
