NBC has released a new video of the cast of Parks and Recreation celebrating their 100th episode. Naturally Perd Hapley is involved.
UPDATE: It looks like NBC has removed the Perd-tastic 19 minute 100th episode special for now. Until it comes back, check out the 1 minute version they provided below.
Now that Parks and Recreation has reached season 6, there is one mystery that needs to be solved: does the theme song have any lyrics? It turns out that it does, and they’re sung by Perd Hapley in his typical overly-literal fashion while surrounded by beautiful female dancers.
That one minute introduction would be enough to celebrate Parks and Recreation‘s 100th episode, but the show went ahead and added an additional 18 minutes of interviews with the cast, who share their favorite moments.
In case you’re in a rush and don’t feel like watching nearly a full episode’s length of Parks and Rec highlights, here is the full rundown of the cast’s favorite moments (there is some overlap).
- Amy Poehler – “Comeback Kid” moment where the cast walked across an ice rink. Leslie’s closing voiceover in the pilot. Ben’s proposal. Nick was really throwing Amy and Rashida around in the hunting episode. Chris Pratt’s pratfalls. The jump cuts of everyone drunk in “The Fight.”
- Adam Scott – He loved all the campaign bus stuff. Pratt improvising “the greatest line in comedy” (it sounds like you have network connectivity problems). Media Blitz – Ben has a real problem with stage fright. Amy’s speech to the park ranger.
- Rashida Jones – Lil Sebastian. She loves that you know how the characters are going to deal with each other, six seasons in.
- Chris Pratt – The Grand Canyon. Jean Ralphio is Pratt’s favorite character.
- Nick Offerman – Ron and Tammy 1. Chris Pratt’s pratfalls
- Aziz Ansari – Tom and Donna. Treat Yo Self. Snakehole Lounge with Detlef Schrempf. Perd Hapley is his favorite character in the universe. When Ben and Tom had lunch with Joan Calamezzo.
- Rob Lowe – “Stop. Pooping.” Chris’s first episode where he points and says everyone’s names.
- Retta – Chris Pratt in the possum episode. Favorite episode is the Halloween episode. She got to live-tweet it. Jerry’s fart attack.
- Aubrey Plaza – she insisted on being interviewed in a tree and refused to answer actual questions.
- Jim O’Heir – Getting hit in the face with a pie. Gave Jerry an amazing life outside of work. Camera gets out of focus.
Parks and Recreation‘s 100th episode airs this Thursday at 8:30 p.m. ET.
