'Parks and Recreation' set-visit scoop: sex, drugs, threesomes, and more!

Filed under: Scoop and tagged: , , ,

And they say nothing ever happens in Pawnee. During a recent visit to the Indiana burb at the center of NBC’s Parks and Recreation, I heard tales of vehicular sexcapades, on-camera three-ways, rampant drug use, and out-of-control egos. On a far less scandalous note, Amy Poehler and her castmates also reacted to NBC’s unpopular decision to bench the show until early 2011, previewed the first six episodes of the upcoming third season, and handicapped their Emmy chances. All told, it was a busy afternoon — so busy that the following episode of Ausiello TV is brought to you in three parts, each more compelling than the last. No, really.

    WHAT???? Not till 2011?!?! Does NBC have more reality crap to shove down our throats??!!

    • LOL

      Best show on NBC!

    • nope, NBC has a ton of new scripted shows and why does a show being reality automatically make it crap? is, say, that lame kelsey grammar sitcom from this year inherently better than the amazing race, for example, just because its scripted? i think not…

      • Jen E.

        Yes. It does automatically make it crap. “Reality” has scripts. Bad scripts. “Reality” has actors. Bad actors. “Reality” has viewers. Stupid viewers.

        Jen E is right! The majority of reality shows suck. Amazing Race is probably the only really good one, because they actually have to succeed, whereas the other shows depend on viewer votes or moronic judges. Even Survivor falls short becuz the other contestants vote. And while Biggest Loser may have ‘success’, I don’t really care to watch grossly overweight people sweat and cry and bitch & moan.
        Sure, scripted shows may be bad, but when you get a good one (Friends, Cheers, Frasier, ER, L&O) the viewer wins!

      NBC is actually helping them out beleive it or not. They’re just waiting for the Community to fall against TBBT and then they will put PE on their place.

      NBC, first you end the season with a cliff hanger and now we have to wait until 2011 for new episodes? I’m not a happy puppy.

    Extremely stupid NBC. Parks had a mediocre first season and I almost didn’t watch the second… but it has become the funniest show on television.

    Oh my god. I love Aubrey Plaza.
    This was fantastical. I’m so heartbroken about having to wait.

      Love Love Love Aubrey Plaza/April. The show wouldnt be the same without her. In fact I can’t think of any character who I could do without (except maybe Ann). I will be lamenting the loss of Mark Brendanawicz. At least Tom Haverford isnt going anywhere
