Parks and Recreation — американский политический сатирический телевизионный ситком, созданный Грегом Дэниелсом и Майклом Шуром. Сериал транслировался на NBC с 9 апреля 2009 года по 24 февраля 2015 года, включает  125 эпизодов, в течение семи сезонов. В сериале Эми Полер играет Лесли Ноуп, веселый бюрократ среднего уровня в Департаменте парков Пауни, вымышленном городе в Индиане. Так же в сериале играют такие актеры как Рашида Джонс в роли Энн Перкинс, пол Шнайдер в роли Марка Бренданавича, Азиз Ансари в роли Тома Хаверфорда, Ник Офферман в роли Рона Свенсона, Обри Плаза в роли Эйприл Ладгейт, Крис Пратт в роли Энди Дуайера, Адам Скотт в роли Бена Уайатта, Роб Лоу в роли Криса Трэгера, Джим О’Хейр в роли Джерри Гергича, Ретта в роли Донны Мигл и Билли Эйхнер в роли Крейга Миддлбрукса.

Авторы исследовали местную калифорнийскую политику для сериала, и консультировались с городскими планировщиками и выборными должностными лицами. Персонаж Полера, Лесли Ноуп, претерпел серьезные изменения после первого сезона, в ответ на отзывы зрителей о том, что она казалась неразумной и «головокружительной». Авторы статьи включили текущие события в эпизоды, такие как закрытие правительства в Пауни, вдохновленное реальным глобальным финансовым кризисом одов. У реальных политиков есть роли в более поздних эпизодах, таких как сенатор Джон Маккейн, вице-президент Джо Байден и первая леди Мишель Обама.

Парки и зоны отдыха был частью программы NBC «Comedy Night Done Right» во время его прайм-тайма в четверг вечером. Сериал получил смешанные отзывы в течение  первого сезона, но, после повторного подхода к своему тону и формату, второй и последующие сезоны получили широкое признание. За все время своего существования «Парки и зоны отдыха» получили несколько наград и номинаций, в том числе четырнадцать номинаций на премию «Эмми» в Primetime (две за выдающийся комедийный сериал), награду «Золотой глобус» за выступление Полера и номинацию на премию «Золотой глобус» за лучший телесериал — мюзикл или комедия. В выпуске списков на конец 2012 года в журнале TIME «Парки и зоны отдыха» был назван телевизионным сериалом номер один в этом году.  В 2013 году, получив четыре номинации подряд в этой категории, «Парки и зоны отдыха» получили награду Ассоциации телевизионных критиков за выдающиеся достижения в комедии.
