Parks and Recreation was (thank god) renewed for a sixth season, and NBC mentioned a juicy little tidbit in the fall schedule announcement: our favorite Pawneeans are going to London.
The season six premiere will be an hour long and set in merry old England, followed by two episodes of Michael J. Fox's new show. Leslie Knope (Amy Poehler) routinely travels to Indianapolis and even got to visit Washington D.C. (she kissed Joe Biden), but we're not sure she's ever left her beloved U.S. of A.
The real question is, who will accompany her? Surely April (Aubrey Plaza) will hate everything, Jerry (Jim O'Heir) will get left at the airport, and Tom (Aziz Ansari) will commission a bespoke suit on Savile Row. Now, Ron Swanson (Nick Offerman) doesn't hate England as much as he hates France, but we'd love to see him bring his patriotic isolationism to the Motherland.
He's often espoused delightfully grumpy bon mots like "America: the only country that matters," "Capitalism is the only way," and of course, "Capitalism: it makes America great, England okay, and France terrible." We can't wait.
Season six of Parks and Recreation premieres on NBC September 28 at 8 p.m.
