Comedy Parks and Recreation - Part 2

The time jump will only make the show better and end on a high note.
 
Ron gets promoted to Director of the Internal Revenue Service.
 
Did they name the three kids yet? I am thinking of Hilary, Ron and Eddard.
They HAVE to let Ben get at least one geeky name in there, or at least do a talking-head where he mentions his top 3 choices that were shot down by Leslie
 
Holy ****.

:lmao:

Between that and HIMYM making The Mother's name Tracy, these writers are really doing some long-term callbacks.
 
In an interview with HitFix, Parks and Recreation co-creator Mike Schur talked about the episode's final minutes, which sees Leslie Knope and her friends three years into the future, after she's settled into her new job and her life with triplets. Of course, it's not just Pawnee that has jumped into the future; it's the whole world, and Season Seven will be set in 2017.

While Schur isn't planning to show any big technological changes, he does see some fun opportunities for acknowledging that the show is set in our future:

[HitFix:] Also, how much, if at all, are you planning to deal with the 2017 of it? Will everyone be wearing Google Glass and shiny jumpsuits?

Mike Schur: Rule number one for the writers when we committed to the jump was: no hoverboards. No one is allowed to pitch that everyone is on hoverboards. It's going to be very very gently sci-fi.

[HitFix:] Are you going to have to be vaguer about references to politics and pop culture next season, as a result of the jump? And, if so, will it be harder to write for Tom as a result?

Mike Schur: Yes, we will have to be vaguer, obviously, though it also seems fun to do some David Foster Wallace-style projecting into the near future. That's what I mean by "gently sci-fi" — there will be the opportunity, should we be so inclined, to make jokes and references to what we imagine the cultural and political landscape to be in 2017.

I can't wait to see what they come up with
 
Huh, he was quite the heartthrob wasn't he?
 
Eyebrows were a little Frida Kahlo, though. :o

Oh and Poehler is producing a pilot for USA starring Billy Eichner...

I'm honestly not sure if I find him annoying or hilarious, but I did enjoy that tweet.
 
Great, now I won't have to suffer through Parks and Rec anymore :D
 
And by that do you mean you aren't going to watch the next season? It did not get cancelled
 
With the time jump and only 13 episode order this will feel like season six was the last season and this upcoming season a Netflix reunion in 2017/2018.
 
At least we know it won't get bumped for "Yet another Crap Starring Sean Hayes" this time around.
