Our Friends From Pawnee Are Reuniting for a PARKS AND RECREATION Special Next Thursday on NBC
We have some great news for all you fans of Parks and Recreation! The show is coming back for a special episode that was recorded from the homes of the stars of the series including Amy Poehler, Rashida Jones, Aziz Ansari, Nick Offerman, Aubrey Plaza, Chris Pratt, Adam Scott, Rob Lowe, Jim O’Heir, and Retta. The story will follow the current events going on today, with Leslie undoubtedly rocking this quarantine, being ultimately productive, but insanely stir-crazy and missing her friends, her work, and her favorite waffles. It is rumored that we may see some friends of the Pawnee universe as well.
Lisa Katz and Tracey Pakosta, Co-Presidents of Scripted Programming, NBC Entertainment, said in a statement:
“In such uncertain times, we can’t think of anyone better than Leslie Knope to unite our country with her unbridled enthusiasm and compassion. A huge thank you to Mike Schur and the cast of Parks and Recreation for putting this wonderful special together and bringing a smile to all our faces while raising money for such a worthwhile cause.”
This is so exciting! I will be watching, and I can’t wait to see the cast together again. Check out Amy Poehler’s clip below announcing the special, and tune in next Thursday, April 30th, at 9:00pm/ET, or catch it streaming the next day.
