#PARKS AND REC CHARACTERS BOB SERIES#
That fact encouraged Schur and Daniels to have Leslie’s pledge in the series premiere to turn the pit into a park not become a reality until the final episode. When Schur talked to urban planners in Claremont, California while doing research, he discovered that it took the Claremont government 18 years to break ground on a new park. THE PIT WAS INITIALLY NOT GOING TO BECOME A PARK UNTIL THE SERIES FINALE. Chris Pratt said that the writers of the songs were “aiming for something that sounds something like Hootie and The Blowfish mixed with…well, any other band that sounds like Hootie and The Blowfish.” 8. On the episode “Rock Show,” Andy claims that his band Mouse Rat née Scarecrow Boat sounds like “Matchbox 20 meets The Fray,” but their “aren’t that great, but they’ve got a hook to it” sound was actually influenced by one artist, who was left conspicuously absent from Ben Wyatt’s nineties-filled mix tape. MOUSE RAT WAS MEANT TO SOUND LIKE HOOTIE AND THE BLOWFISH.
#PARKS AND REC CHARACTERS BOB MOVIE#
Philbin-Regis and Joy Philbin’s daughter-r ecommended Pratt for the role of Andy Dwyer to her husband, and the future movie star ended up ad-libbing Schur’s favorite improvised line of the entire series.ħ. Pratt played an activist named Winchester "Ché" Cook on The O.C., a primetime teen drama that Michael Schur’s wife, J.J. CHRIS PRATT WAS CAST BECAUSE OF HIS WORK ON THE O.C. Due to what has only been described as "legal reasons," the poster was removed, replaced for the remainder of the series with a picture of a dark-haired woman eating breakfast food, a result of the show’s production team going through an image library’s results of typing in other things Ron Swanson would like. RON SWANSON’S BOBBY KNIGHT POSTER WAS TAKEN DOWN FOR LEGAL REASONS.Ī large poster of the legendary former college basketball coach was visible in Ron’s office throughout the six-episode first season, with Swanson speaking glowingly of the outspoken coach in the end of the pilot episode. Schur said that the unidentified government official was aware of the irony. She said she could relate because she didn’t “really believe in the mission” of her government job herself. While Daniels and Schur were doing research, the two brought up the potential humor in Leslie Knope’s boss being anti-government to a libertarian official in Burbank, California. RON SWANSON WAS LOOSELY BASED ON A REAL LIFE GOVERNMENT OFFICIAL. Aziz Ansari and Rashida Jones did not make Schur uneasy, but they were also cast before they or the writers knew who they would be playing. At the sit-down, Plaza made Schur " really uncomfortable for like an hour," and he decided to employ her. APRIL LUDGATE WAS WRITTEN JUST FOR AUBREY PLAZA.Ĭasting director Allison Jones informed Schur, who became Parks’ showrunner, that she had just met “the weirdest girl," and that a meeting between Plaza and Schur had to happen. Silverman said the title was changed because the network and/or the show’s producers didn’t want to “make fun of public service.” 3.
A little over two months before its series premiere, NBC announced in a Super Bowl commercial that they went with the title Parks and Recreation. Public Service was seriously considered as the name of the show, which got its start as The Untitled Amy Poehler Sitcom. THE SHOW WAS ORIGINALLY TITLED PUBLIC SERVICE. Despite the originality of that idea, Daniels and Schur decided to create a show of their own, while using The Office’s mockumentary format and one of the show’s actors, Rashida Jones. Along with Office writer Michael Schur, the two considered some concepts, including one where a broken copy machine from Scranton would break down in an episode of The Office and then end up in Pawnee, making the office equipment the spun-off character. NBC co-chairman Ben Silverman asked Greg Daniels, the man in charge of the American version of The Office, for a spin-off of the popular comedy.
THE SHOW WAS INITIALLY CONCEIVED AS A SPIN-OFF OF THE OFFICE. Read on to find out more about the show set in a town whose residents still use AltaVista. Since 2009, Parks and Recreation has taught us that there are many different first names you can call a very clumsy co-worker, even more ways to tell your best friend she is beautiful, and that sometimes you should take a day off and treat yourself.
