Just likeFriendsandThe Office, Parks and Recreationis a show that we keep going back to. One rewatch is never enough now, is it? While the first season received mixed reviews from critics and was often compared toThe Office,the series had a brilliant comeback starting from the second season. The show stars Adam Scott, Chris Pratt, Amy Poehler, Nick Offerman, and more.
The show ended in 2015 but the cast reunited for a special reunion episode in 2020 before closing the chapter for good. But that doesn’t mean fans cannot keep holding on to that thread of hope of seeing their favorite characters return, right? In a recent interview, Adam Scott gets candid about the possibility of gathering the cast for an actualParks and Recreationreboot.
Adam Scott Talks aboutParks and RecreationGetting a Reboot
Adam Scottstarred in the 2009 sitcomParty Downwhich was cancelled just after two seasons. However, the cast did reunite for a special six-episode revival season after it was announced in 2021. The limited series was released in February 2023. Needless to say, bringing back a show that ended in 2010 gaveParks and Recreationthe hope that there was still a chance that a reboot would happen.

Discussing the possibility of the reboot withThe Hollywood Reporter, Scott stated thatParty DownandParks and Recare two completely different things and the latter’s reboot depends on the decision of many, includingAmy Poehler.
“Party Down was super fun, and I got to have a hand in sort of one of the five or six of us who kind of got to push that boulder up the hill and it was just such a blast. Parks and Rec is a completely [different thing] with Mike [Schur] and Amy [Poehler] and Greg [Daniels] and all of those wonderful people’s decision, and if they would ever be interested in doing something like that, it would be up to them.”
He then added that he is so fond of his ex-co-stars that he doesn’t think a reboot is the only thing that can bring them together once again. He’ll just be happy to grab a snack with them. As for reviving the show, Scott believes thatParks and Recreation hasalready got its perfect ending.
“But I mean, I would go get a sandwich with all of those people. I wouldn’t have to be shooting the show. I just love all of ’em so much. I mean, the show itself sort of had a real ending.”

While Scott absolutely adores hisParks and Recco-stars, he is unsure if a reboot will be happening anytime soon or ever, for that matter.

Scott then talked about the special episode they reunited for that was broadcast on June 29, 2025. The episode was created as a fundraiser for Feeding America’s COVID-19 Response Fund. Everyone from Poehler andNick Offerman toChris PrattandAziz Ansarireturned for the small reunion to give fans a glimpse of what happened to their characters.
While that was a great treat to the sitcom’s fans, theSeveranceactor is not sure if they would be doing something like this ever again.
“We did do something over the pandemic where we all got back together and made an episode [to raise money for Feeding America]. I don’t know if there would ever be any more, but I mean, I really don’t know.”

He then spent a moment to show his love and appreciation for his fellow cast members who he misses dearly. Scott even stated that it is difficult for him to rewatch the series as it makes him quite emotional.
“I love the show and love all the people. It’s always fun seeing any of them. I haven’t seen the show in a long time just because I miss it and I feel like it would be sad to watch it, but it’s just such a lovely show and lovely group of people.”
While we as fans would love nothing more than to see everyone reunite for a reboot, we can all agree that ‘One Last Ride’ was the perfect ending toParks and Recreationas we got to bid farewell to both the characters as well as the city of Pawnee.
