From the creators of The Office, Parks and Recreation is a ‘mocumentary’ style comedy series that brings viewers into the exhilarating domain of local government. Leslie Knope (Amy Poehler) is a government employee in Pawnee, Indiana and Ann Perkins (Rashida Jones) is a resident nurse. Leslie is given the task of helping Ann to convert an abandoned site into a new recreational park. Leslie’s job is developing into something much more complicated, as she fights her way through difficult bureaucrats, developers, and delinquent neighbours, with a camera crew following her around and documenting her every move. The project seems to be taking forever to get off of the ground, and her co-workers, despite trying to be helpful, have issues of their own. Are they really helping, or impeding her progress every step of the way?
