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.

If I have learned one thing in my lifetime, it is that friends are a privilege. No one is required to give you their company and yet there is some sort of shared connection that keeps you together. And from that friendship, you may even find yourself lucky enough to have a few more friends, thus forming a group. Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.

College is a great place to meet people, especially through Greek life. If you look closely at sororities, you'll quickly see there are many different types of girls you will meet.

1. The Legacy.

Her sister was a member, her mom was a member, all of her aunts were members, and her grandma was a member. She has been waiting her whole life to wear these letters and cried hysterically on bid day. Although she can act entitled at times, you can bet she is one of the most enthusiastic sisters.

Every kid in college and/or high school dreams of summer the moment they walk through the door on the first day back in September. It becomes harder and harder to focus in classes and while doing assignments as the days get closer. The winter has been lagging, the days are short and dark, and no one is quite themselves due to lack of energy and sunlight. Let's face it: life is ten times better in the summertime.
