Things We Saw Today: The Cast of Parks and Recreation is Down for a Reunion

This week in Please Goddess Make This Happen: Amy Poehler and Nick Offerman appeared on The Ellen DeGeneres Show to promote their crafting competition series Making It, when Ellen asked them about a possible Parks and Recreation reunion. Both stars were immediately up for it, with Offerman joking “We said that if Beyoncé will play the mayor, we’ll bring the show back.” Poehler responded by saying, “Oh my God, I’ll speak for everybody and say we would all do it. I think we’d all do it someday. It would be amazing.” Their co-stars took to social media to discuss how much they loved working on the show:

Chelsea Steiner

Chelsea was born and raised in New Orleans, which explains her affinity for cheesy grits and Britney Spears. An pop culture journalist since 2012, her work has appeared on Autostraddle, AfterEllen, and more. Her beats include queer popular culture, film, television, republican clownery, and the unwavering belief that 'The Long Kiss Goodnight' is the greatest movie ever made. She currently resides in sunny Los Angeles, with her husband, 2 sons, and one poorly behaved rescue dog. She is a former roller derby girl and a black belt in Judo, so she is not to be trifled with. She loves the word “Jewess” and wishes more people used it to describe her.
