"The Office," but with more trees.




This past Thursday the producers of "The Office" released "Parks and Recreation." It's filmed in the same "mockumentary" style of "The Office." It stars Amy Poehler from "SNL" in a very Michael Scott type role, Rashida Jones (Karen, AKA Jim's ex from "The Office") and Aziz Ansari, a comedian who is from the very best episode of "Flight of the Conchords," where he played a very racist fruit salesman.
Take a look at the pilot for yourself, but my initial reaction is that there is definitely some potential. Let's hope so for NBC's and Amy Poehler's sake.
