Even though Parks and Recreation came to an end in 2015, the wonderful cast and crew behind the NBC sitcom reunited for a one-time special on Thursday, April 30. The episode was part of a collaboration with State Farm and Subaru in order to help raise funds for Feeding America, a non-profit organization that helps people through hunger crisis, especially those who have been affected by COVID-19.

The series focuses on the idea that in the afterlife, there is a Good Place and a Bad Place, and when people die, their point-totals of good and bad actions determine where they are sent.

When confronted with the success of The Office, NBC looked to develop a show that built upon its comedic and stylistic foundations. Thus came Parks and Recreation, which emulated The Office in its mockumentary style; large cast; standalone, quotable cold opens; and general atmosphere and comedic feel.
