25 Times Parks and Recreation Perfectly Described What’s Happening Right Now

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at UVA chapter.

Hey Hoos, it’s day 37 since The Email™ and if there is ONE thing keeping me sane right now, it’s Parks and Recreation. One of the greatest things about the show was that it always stayed relevant to current events. Despite ending in 2015, P&R somehow remains insanely relevant in 2020 in the best and worst ways. Most importantly, it’s on Netflix, so happy binging!
