Parks & Recreation

The untitled Amy Poehler and Rashida Jones project I mentioned a while ago has a name: Parks & Recreation. And it looks pretty funny. It also stars Aziz Ansari and Aubrey Plaza.

Parks & Recreation is a new mockumentary that looks at the exciting world of local government. The new half-hour comedy will examine the mundane but necessary ways that people interact with their government, and ask why it's frequently so complicated -- as everyone knows from standing in line at the DMV, applying for home construction permits, or trying to get the city to fix a pothole.

If all goes well the cast could be up for some Golden Globe nominations.
