TV’s warmest sitcom ends with a look toward a bright future. Review by Brandon Wolfe Like many of the great sitcoms, Parks and Recreation had an inauspicious start. Debuting as the new project from the creators of NBC’s The Office , Parks and Rec utilized that series’ mockumentary format in service of examining another collection of kooks in a workplace environment, this time state government rather than a paper company.

Anyone else having a problem seeing that? Still, Steve, doused in Eau to Humility, had this to say about the attention he's receiving for his exit: "I didn't see it as a huge thing and I certainly didn't anticipate any sort of hubbub over it.
