Parks and Recreation: The Complete Series DVD Box Set

Leslie Knope (Amy Poehler), a midlevel bureaucrat in an Indiana Parks and Recreation Department, hopes to beautify her town (and boost her own career) by helping local nurse Ann Perkins (Rashida Jones) turn an abandoned construction site into a community park, but what should be a fairly simple project is stymied at every turn by oafish bureaucrats, selfish neighbours, governmental red tape and a myriad of other challenges. Leslie's colleague Tom Haverford (Aziz Ansari), who delights in exploiting his position for personal gain, is as likely to undermine her efforts as to help her, while her boss, Ron Swanson (Nick Offerman), is adamantly opposed to government in any form, even though he's a bureaucrat himself.
