Amy Poehler’s popular sitcom Parks and Recreation will come to an end after its upcoming seventh successful season.
Bosses at America’s NBC network officially announced on Sunday, May 11 that the series about small-town politics will be coming to its close.
After debuting in 2009, the show has landed several awards and nominations, including Poehler’s first Golden Globes win for Best Actress in a Musical or Comedy.
Executives at the network also announced that the Lauren Graham and Peter Krause-led drama, Parenthood, will come to an end after its sixth season.
Parks and Creation is an American comedy series on the NBC television network, starring Amy Poehler as Leslie Knope, a mid-level bureaucrat in the parks department of Pawnee, a fictional town in Indiana.
It was conceived by Greg Daniels and Michael Schur. The show debuted in 2009 and completed airing its sixth season in April 2014. NBC confirmed in March 2014 that the show was picked up for a seventh, and its final season.
It uses a single-camera, mockumentary filming style, with the implication being that a documentary crew is filming everyone.
In Time’s 2012 year-end lists issue, it was named the number one television show. In 2013, after receiving four consecutive nominations in the category, it won the Television Critics Association Award for Outstanding Achievement in Comedy.
