Parks and Recreation getting reunion special!

While many networks are working on revivals of fan-favorite series to recapture their original waves of success, the ensemble cast of NBC’s Emmy-nominated comedy Parks and Recreation are reuniting for a 30-minute charity reunion special!

A Parks and Recreation Special will see the return of all of our favorite citizens of Pawnee, Ind., including Amy Poehler’s Leslie Knope, Rashida Jones’ Ann Perkins, Aziz Ansari’s Tom Haverford, Nick Offerman’s Ron Swanson, Aubrey Plaza’s April Ludgate, Chris Pratt’s Andy Dwyer, Adam Scott’s Ben Wyatt, Rob Lowe’s Chris Traeger, Retta’s Donna Meagle and Jim O’Heir’s Gary “Jerry Larry” Gergich, as well as guest appearances from some recurring stars.

The 30-minute special, filmed from each of the stars’ homes, will center on Leslie as she is determined to stay connected to her friends in a time of social distancing while also looking to raise funds for Feeding America’s COVID-19 Response Fund, enabling food banks to secure the resources they need to serve the most vulnerable memories of the community.

So this is taking place April 30th.

I never really got into this show, but of the few episodes I've watched with friends it was pretty hilarious (I feel this way about most sitcoms I haven't got around to watching). But good for the fans, I'm sure they'll love this.

I have a feeling it's going to be a bit like wrestling with no fans. Cool that they are doing it, but you know it will probably not live up to the hype. Although I thought I heard people saying that recent SNL was pretty good.

Here's the special, I'm not sure if this link will work outside of America.
