![]() “Leslie and Ben” is just a damn adorable half hour of television and I will not apologize for its warming of my heart. So, in the words of Perd Hapley: This, the “Top 50 Parks and Recreation Episodes, Ranked,” is a ranking of the top 50 episodes of Parks and Recreation. It's a strong legacy the show leaves behind-along with hours and hours of pitch-perfect comedy. Supporting players like Jenny Slate, Ben Schwartz, and many others have also seen their profiles rise. Offerman has straddled indie work and establishing his brand as a carpentry-and-whiskey-loving personality. Before (temporarily) walking away from projects, Ansari gave us two seasons of the thoughtful Master of None and Ben Wyatt actor Adam Scott has branched out with performances in prestige television projects such as Big Little Liesand Severance. Small-screen turns on Legion and Criminal Minds have been hailed as well. Plaza has successfully established herself as an indie-film star through titles such as Black Bear, Ingrid Goes West, An Evening with Beverly Luff Linn, and Emily the Criminal. On top of that, he's assembled a lucrative-if not always well-regarded-filmography of actioners, including The Forever War, The Terminal List, and Zero Dark Thirty. Pratt is the clear front-runner here, having appeared in five MCU films (and counting!) as Peter "Star-Lord" Quill of the Guardians of the Galaxy. What's more, a few of the key players in Pawnee have gone on to become stars outside of Parks & Rec. Donna Meagle ( Retta) came to live for more than a Mercedes, and Tom Haverford ( Aziz Ansari)- real-life unpleasantness notwithstanding-journeyed from man-child to child-sized man. The mustachioed curmudgeon in the corner office ( Nick Offerman) learned to care about more than meat. The deadpan loner ( Aubrey Plaza) and the hapless oaf ( Chris Pratt) fell in love at the shoe-shine stand. Led by living ball of scrapbooked positivity Leslie Knope ( Amy Poehler), this crew transformed from workplace comedy clichés into something at once relatable and unbelievable. ![]() She’s too bored to be manic, too over-it to be depressed.And at the center was the Parks Department, a group of workplace associates turned friends turned family. She has no patience for corporate ideals or social niceties. April can say the most off-beat things without even the hint of a smile. Even worse, he’s probably still in love with Ann. Still, her feelings for Andy are real, but the age gap between them may be too wide to traverse. It pains her when something is beyond hating or making fun of. ![]() April is open about her dislike of social situations, work, and positivity in general. Somehow his obliviousness made him even more attractive to her.Ĭhallenge… dealing with people. She thought that would be enough to win him over, but he was too thick to put two and two together. It was a convenient crush since she already hated his ex, Ann, and was eager to help Andy make Ann jealous. While that was going on, she started developing feelings for Andy. Her last boyfriend, Derek, was openly gay and dating a man at the same time she was with him. Relationship Status… single, but pining for Andy Dwyer. But not just any music – mainly “German death reggae, Halloween sound effects from the 1950s, and Bette Midler.” Her loves include: “games that turn people against each other,” alcohol because “it’s fun and delicious,” and music. Interests… April has no pretensions when it comes to her interests. The less that gets done, the better. April’s incredible apathy and rudeness are the twin bulwarks that protect Ron from having to run a functional government. Ron is more than happy to have her nap on the job. April started as a college intern with little to no interest in the gig, and eventually became a permanent hire with no interest in the gig. April is a perfect professional match for Ron, who likes his workers to do as little as possible because of his belief that government should essentially wither and die. Profession… assistant to Ron Swanson, the libertarian director of Pawnee’s Parks and Recreation Department. Once she brought him back to Pawnee, he became great friends with Andy, her ex. She should’ve stayed in Venezuela with him. When the town government shut down, she took a three-month trip to Venezuela, where she met a boyfriend named Eduardo. Living… in Pawnee, Ind., as long as the government’s open for business.
