Reasons why Parks and Rec deserved an Emmy
- Set in small-town Indiana, still manages to have 40% of itâs ensemble cast be POC, and not one of them is a token either
- 40% of the cast are women. ž are POC. All of them are badasses.Â
- Every single fucking episode is funny. Seriously.Â
- Perd fucking Hapley. I canât even explain, you just have to watchÂ
- Pawnee citizens holy hellÂ
- The flawless political commentary behind the Langmanâs and the Male MenÂ
- The scene in Comeback Kid where Get On Your Feet is playing and theyâre all struggling to walk on iceÂ
- Chris Traeger and his mental illness. They worked it in so that it was comedic, but if it glorified anything, it was asking for help and accepting it.Â
- Okay just Chris in generalÂ
- Gary Jerry Larry Terry Gary Gergich Gengurch GergichÂ
- Donna, the character who is exactly who she needs to be throughout her life. She acknowledges the need to change her behavior occasionally, but it doesnât dent her confidence one bit.Â
- Ann Meredith Perkins, you beautiful sun-ray nurse. The best friend everyone needs. Quirky and grounded and intelligent.Â
- THE FUCKING SAPERSTEINSÂ
- ESPECIALLY JEAN-RALPHIOÂ
- Everything Tom Haverford has ever saidÂ
- Ben fucking Wyatt. I canât even elaborate without crying and combusting. Much better nerd than any weasel from The Big Bang Theory. Feminist. Best Husband Ever.Â
- ANYTIME BEN OR LESLIE ARE DRUNK HOLY SHITÂ
- Cones of Dunshire and Requiem for a TuesdayÂ
- Aprilâs character development *heart eyes*Â
- Andy and Aprilâs loveÂ
- Mouse Rat and hits like The Pit, Catch Your Dream, and - 5000 CANDLES IN THE WINDÂ
- Johnny and Johnathan KarateÂ
- Andy Dwyer, secret geniusÂ
- Ron Swanson, the manliest man to ever man, owner of the worldâs best character development, hater of Canada and vegans, beautiful beautiful manÂ
- I dig your groovy tunes man
- Ben and Leslieâs healthy, realistic, and beautiful relationshipÂ
- Benâs triplets freakoutÂ
- Amy Poehler plays the most amazing woman to ever grace any screen. Leslie Knope, a socially inept but selfless woman who dedicates her life to public service, her family, and her friends. Deeply flawed main character that wasnât made lovable by her unfortunate but relatable love of sugar and hatred of vegetables, but instead by her love for others and thoughtfulness and work ethic and optimism. Food habits aside, her character flaws were acknowledged by the writers, her loved ones, and her. No one is an enabler for Leslie Knopeâs bad behavior. When she does something shitty, she gets called on it and apologizes. But at the end of the day, hard work and positivity make a difference, and she achieves her dreams.Â
- Positivity. The people on this show like each other. They believe in and support each other. They apologize when theyâre wrong. They forgive when theyâve been wronged. They go out of their way to make lives better. And it is still funny.
