It’s hard to say whether or not it’s a good thing that the title Parks and Recreation has become an increasingly inaccurate description of the show.

Last season was primarily about Leslie’s election, and her success means a huge change for the parks department. Not only that, but Ben, whose place in Pawnee has always been a bit uncertain, left the city to work on a congressional election... read more
