I will never forgive the omission of Ben Wyatt and Leslie Knope from Parks and Recreation
Sorry, we like Janet Snakehole and Bert Macklin April and Andy more.

Anyone else want to skip work/school today and just watch this episode over and over and over?

When I was young, I had a TV show idea called Let’s Get Outta Here! I thought it would be a great MTV show, which is just a bunch of attractive people running place to place. They all meet up in a park and look at each other and they’re like, ‘Let’s get outta here!’ And they just run to the next place. Maybe when they run from place to place, one of them gets in a fight, and two of them become a couple—it doesn’t matter. The point is: They have to get somewhere, and then they have to get the hell outta there.

Amy Poehler: World’s most quotable woman?

More Amy and Adam, because we just can’t help ourselves.

We spoke with Parks and Rec’s awesome prop master about her favorite pieces of 2012 — including Leslie’s Unity Quilt, that Sweetums voting machine, and Groffle, the Awful Waffle. He cries syrup tears and has a butter nose!

As Leslie Knope once told us, “Joe Biden is on my celebrity sex list — well, he is my celebrity sex list.” So she must be pretty pumped that the once and future vice president is going to guest star on Parks and Recreation.

We’re EW, and we approve this message.

‘Parks and Rec’ exec producer teases Season 5 storylines, guess who-style

But which names go where?

1. “—– has a personal breakthrough thanks to a cowboy hat, and some tough love from —–.”

2. “Champion the three-legged dog may be the only thing that can cheer up —– when he has an emotional breakdown.”

3. “Will —– actually win an award for something?  And more importantly, will he care?”

4. “Halloween pranks aren’t always harmless, as —– and —– will learn the hard way.”

5. “—– finds himself contemplating a big career move on the deck of a yacht.”

6. “Why in the world would —– possibly try to destroy a project idea from —–?”

7. “Episode 8 might just be the last we hear from —–.”

8. “—– grabs —–’s wrist so hard, he’ll think twice about food tray etiquette in the future.”

9. “Can —– read all of “50 Shades of Gray” in one afternoon?”

10. “Of all the people to have thrown a well-attended party, who’d have guessed it’d be —–?

11. “Was —– texting when he got into a minor car accident?  How dare you, sir! He was tweeting.”

(Answers? We got your answers right here.)

All we really want in this life is to go to a party thrown by Leslie Knope.

Getting a gift from her would also be pretty awesome.

Another exclusive clip from Parks and Recreation — but this time, the action’s focused on Washington, where Leslie gets up close and personal with real-life U.S. senators Barbara Boxer and Olympia Snowe.

Naturally, things don’t go exactly the way Councilwoman Knope would like them to.
