details about new Amy Poehler NBC comedy
Details are slowly being revealed about Amy Poehler’s new sitcom on NBC – and while the show still doesn’t have a title, at least we know about her character and the backdrop.

Amy Poehler says the show is set in small-town government, with documentary cameras (a la The Office) following Leslie Knope (Poehler), who plays a Parks and Recreation Department bureaucrat in Pawnee, Indiana.

Co-star Rashida Jones plays local nurse Ann Logan who helps Amy’s character turn an abandoned construction pit into a community park. The bureaucratic process, neighbors, developers, etc. don’t make the process easy. Comedy ensues.

Co-stars include Aziz Ansari and Aubrey Plaza. Oh… and Amy Poehler’s character is doing all this while trying to move toward the ultimate goal: becoming president of the United States.
