The mayor of Pawnee still hasn’t been cast – we’re holding out for you, Bill Murray – but we can tell you who’s playing the mayor of Partridge, Minn. (Ben’s hometown) on an upcoming episode of Parks and Rec: the great J.K. Simmons.

Rob Lowe and Rashida Jones are both leaving Parks and Rec.
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!! LITRALLY the worst news.
Awesome news: Jenny Slate (of SNL and Marcel the Shell fame) is going to guest star on Parks and Rec as Jean-Ralphio’s twin sister.
All this Community postage reminds us that NBC isn’t showing any new comedy tonight—instead, the network is running a mini-marathon of Office episodes. Ugh, streets behind.
So what are you going to do this evening—watch six straight Office eps? Get your Community/Parks and Rec/30 Rock fix from Netflix? Check out another network’s Thursday lineup, for a change? Or curl up in a corner, whimpering, until new must-see TV returns?
Included: Leslie’s new City Council office (complete with a surprise), Andy’s attempt at identifying D.C. landmarks, the Parks Department employee-appreciation BBQ, talk of old people with sexually transmitted diseases, “sparkle skin,” an assault on the eardrum of Ben, and much, much more. Is it Thursday yet?
Also The Office and Parks and Rec, but who even cares about them?
Awesome alert: Amy Poehler is campaigning to get Bill Murray to guest star on Parks and Rec. She wants him to play Pawnee’s much-discussed but never seen Mayor Gunderson.
Fantastic idea, or the best idea? Or do you see someone else stepping into the Mayor’s no doubt well-shined shoes?
Uh-oh: In Parks and Recreation’s upcoming season finale, April may have screwed up royally by deleting all of the department’s files. Can Andy help her out of this electronic jam and save the day? Let’s roll the tape and see what happens in our preview clip. (Hint: The answer to that question is probably “no.”)
We spoke with Parks and Rec’s awesome prop master about her favorite pieces of 2012 – including Leslie’s Unity Quilt, that Sweetums voting machine, and Groffle, the Awful Waffle. He cries syrup tears and has a butter nose!
