While Parks and Rec won’t air this week, news is surfacing about Season 5. Megan Mullally, best known as Karen from Will and Grace, returns to Parks and Recreation season 5 to reprise her role as Ron’s second ex-wife Tammy. Only Mullally could be a worthy opponent of Ron Swanson’s new attraction: Diane, played by Lucy Lawless.
The Parks and Recreation season 5’s first guest star, Senator John McCain, and our favorite sullen lady, April Ludgate-Dwyer (Aubrey Plaza), were interviewed (separately) on the set of Season 5 in Washington DC. Check out both videos below, and get pumped for the season, which airs at 9:30 p.m. this Thursday.
