The fifth season of NBC’s comedy series Parks & Recreation will receive its UK premiere on UKTV’s Dave channel on Monday October 12th at 8pm with a double-bill, it has been announced.
Created by Greg Daniels and Michael Schur, Parks & Recreation follows Leslie Knope, the deputy director of the Parks and Recreation as she tries her best to deliver for the local community despite the best efforts of her boss, Ron Swanson, who is opposed to government and does his best to undermine government work at every turn. The comedy series stars Amy Poehler, Rashida Jones, Aziz Ansari, Nick Offerman, Aubrey Plaza, Paul Schneider, Chris Pratt, Adam Scott, Rob Lowe, Jim O’Heir and Retta.
In the opening episode of the show’s fifth season, titled Ms Knope Goes To Washington, Leslie and Andy visit Ben and April at their new jobs in Washington D.C., and Leslie feels overwhelmed by the city — especially after meeting two of her idols (Senator Barbara Boxer and Senator Olympia Snowe). Meanwhile, Ron throws a “thank you” barbeque for the entire Parks and Recreation staff.
