Top 10 Parks And Recreation Characters
Beta Series

Although I am late to jump on the Parks and Recreation bandwagon, I started watching it at the recommendation of my roommate and I love it. I started it less than a week ago and I've already seen five of the seven seasons. It's witty and definitely entertaining, something many sitcoms tend to lack. Anyone who has binge-watched a show knows you're always going to have favorite and least favorite characters, it's inevitable. While I don't really HATE any specific characters from Parks and Recreation, these are my personal favorites, ranked.

10. Jerry Gergich

Poor Jerry. I have nothing against him, he's just Jerry.


9. Ann Perkins

Ann is supposed to encompas the "perfect best friend" and while she does that, there's also times she kind of annoys me. She whines a lot. That grabbed her the number nine slot.


8. Donna Meagle

Donna and Tom's "treat yo self" episode was iconic, however, Donna really does lack some character development, so she couldn't really be much higher on the list.


7. Tom Haverford

Again, "treat yo self" is ICONIC. Tom is just a bit too much for me. He's always a good laugh, though.


6. Chris Traeger

I LOVE Chris Traeger. He is LITERALLY the most positive person I've ever seen, even though he isn't technically real. Bummer.


5. Andy Dwyer


We are all Andy Dwyer in one way or another. This GIF of Andy is my favorite. And if you don't like Andy, you may take a liking to Bert Macklin, FBI.


4. Ron Swanson

Ron is the bomb. Ron probably doesn't believe in lists, so his place at number four wouldn't affect him much.

3. April Ludgate

I personally identify with April Ludgate. Her dark humor and sarcasm is the freaking best. She has a lot of one liner's that, even if you haven't watched Parks and Rec, you probably know.

2. Leslie Knope

Leslie is the eccentric main character of the series. She's hilarious, relatable, and she cares for everyone around her. The only reason she didn't get the number one slot is because of...

1. Ben Wyatt

Ben is my absolute FAVORITE character in the whole freaking series. He is the most sarcastic and dramatic character in the series, but he's still the best. With a face like that, it would be hard for him to not have the number one slot.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
