About
As of 2026, it's 17 years old.
Parks and Recreation started a little shaky and then grew into one of the most beloved, big-hearted comedies on television, powered by Amy Poehler's relentlessly optimistic government employee Leslie Knope and her quest to improve a small Indiana town that mostly didn't want improving.
Its lovable ensemble (a libertarian who loves breakfast meat, an aggressively chill Tom, the deadpan April) and genuine sweetness made it a comfort-watch institution. Treat yo' self.
Sunny, witty, and impossibly endearing, Parks and Recreation is the comedy that found endless heart and laughs inside the world's least glamorous government department.
