During its seven-season run, Parks and Recreation did something very few shows manage to: it kept getting better. It helped that the NBC comedy had everything going for it: an enormously talented cast with insane chemistry, hilariously dry humour that everyone enjoyed, and the ability to combine the mundane day-to-day of small-town bureaucracy with wacky personalities that resonated with viewers. Even if those qualities didn't get rightfully recognised during its run . . . ahem.
Though the show ended in 2015, fans of the series know you never let go of a good thing, especially when it's a gang as fantastic as the folks of the Parks and Recreation Department of Pawnee. In tribute to an amazing show that we're all better for having watched, check out some of the classic moments that made Parks and Recreation so outstanding.
And pro-tip: for a prime viewing experience, play this number on repeat. You're welcome.
