      Yeah. Parks and Rec is a great show but it isn’t as popular and doesn’t get as much recognition as other shows that Michael Schur has produced, such as the Office. I personally think Parks and Rec is better though because of this. The Office is so common everywhere that it feels overrated and overused, but parks and rec is different. People make memes on the internet using Parks and Rec templates but they don’t even know what the show is.

    Greg Daniels and Mike Schur (Mose!) have proved time and time again that they know what they're doing.
