After watching Amy Poehler co-host the Golden Globes with Tina Fey, fans of Poehler will be treated to even more of the funny lady with the premiere of season seven of Parks and Recreation. The final season will debut on January 13, 2015 at 8pm ET/PT with back-to-back episodes. The last season of the half-hour comedy will then air back-to-back episodes on Tuesday nights leading up to the hour-long finale on February 24th.
Season six averaged 3.8 million viewers.
“Mike Schur and Amy Poehler, along with their incredible producers, cast, and crew, have given us one of the great television comedies of all time, and we’re inordinately proud of Parks and Recreation,” said NBC Entertainment Chairman Robert Greenblatt. “In an effort to give it the send-off it deserves, we wanted to ‘eventize’ the final season to maximize the impact of these episodes, which really do take the show to a new level. The highly-anticipated one-hour finale will air behind The Voice in order to lead the largest audience possible into what promises to be a very special hour of television.”
“Critics, viewers and all of us at NBC fell in love with this endearing, funny, heartfelt show and its authentic cast of characters,” stated Jennifer Salke, President, NBC Entertainment. “After seven amazing seasons, saying goodbye to the folks of Pawnee will be bittersweet, so we want to give the show and its fans the most impactful final season possible.”
Parks and Recreation’s cast is led by Poehler and features Chris Pratt, Aziz Ansari, Nick Offerman, Aubrey Plaza, Adam Scott, Jim O’Heir and Retta.
