Shows Like "Ted Lasso": "Parks and Recreation"

A goody two shoes with a can-do personality takes over a team that has a much less sunny outlook and is spectacularly unsuccessful, then transforms their lives. Are we talking about "Parks and Recreation" or "Ted Lasso?" Both! Leslie Knope and Ted Lasso are clearly cut from the same cloth with positive attitudes, determination, and unstoppable optimism that can't help but improve the lives of everyone they meet — even if things sometimes get worse before they get better. They're also both surrounded by wonderful supporting casts full of quirky characters who perfectly balance out their sunny optimism with wit, realism, and a bit of vinegary cynicism.
