But it all still worked because the show handles sentiment delightfully. Likewise for Ann and Chris deciding to have a baby together. There wasn't much to their spur of the moment decision to get married - and then eventually marrying inside the Parks department - that wasn't lifted out of the sitcom playbook, but this show still finds a way to transcend cliches. You're lonely." I will admit that there's a part of me that's become less invested in Leslie's manic passion for government over the years, and sometimes her stories are retreads of past embarrassments (complete with Ron advice), but I did go all-in on her relationship with Ben. I do still think he should consider a new career as the host of "You're On With Ron" after taking over Pawnee Today from a sloshed Joan Callamezzo.

and referencing the movie "First Kid." Oh, and Ron having a little Swanson with Diane is also damn great. Plus, there was Ben's Star Trek TNG fan-fic, the Gergich breakfast song, a Leslie/Tammy II brawl, Tom dating Mona Lisa, Ron reminiscing about all the times he wanted to punch Jamm in the face, and Andy bumbling around D.C. And the "Jamm'd" shtick didn't become great until it had some time to morph into things like "Self Jammed'd!" and "Retro-Jamm'd!" On the upside though, we got some great stuff with Andy and April in Washington, D.C.an amazing "Fart Attack" from Jerry in "Halloween Surprise," the boys getting food poisoning while tasting wedding food, the "Wyld Stallyns!" stoners from "Animal Control," and Ron trying to force himself a banana. They hadn't quite found his ticks and peculiarities yet other than the fact that he was a jerk. But at the outset, he just wasn't that funny. The other lull in Season 5 came with the Councilman Jamm character, who I will admit has grown on me now. It's just what happens sometimes to bubble shows that don't necessarily have the luxury of doing long-term planning. After that though, the show was still good but it felt a little bit like "Season 5b." Kind of like when Chuck's third season got extended and they had to add 6 more episodes after "Chuck vs. Andy retired Burt Macklin, Leslie returned to Eagleton, Ron revealed his Duke Silver secret to Diane, Ben got betrayed by mini-calzones, Leslie beat Jamm and won her bid to turn the former pit into the Pawnee Commons and Andy even drunkenly played some Mouse Rat tunes after the wedding. A lot of the episodes leading up to the wonderful "Leslie and Ben" touched on Candyland cornerstones of Parks, giving them their due as if they might be the final time we saw them. The biggest hiccups this season had was the sort of "stop-start" the show felt after the original finale "Leslie and Ben," leading us into episodes which were created to merely extended the season along to a still-good-but-lesser finale. Yes, as always, some folks lend themselves better to comedic situations, but in any group dynamic there are standouts. That's right, one of Parks' strengths, and overall keys to longevity, is the fact that, smart or dumb, cheerful or grumpy, there's no one we'd kick out of the life raft. Parks and Recreation, in its fifth year, continues to be one of the smartest and sweetest comedies on TV, featuring a wildly entertaining ensemble cast of characters who we all actively root for. If someone is talking or asking about a game they haven't finished, then in that thread you should think about spoiler tags when replying to them.With the Season 5 finale, "Are You Better Off?," focusing on Leslie looking back at her first year on the Pawnee City Council, the easy question to ask with this review of Season 5 is: How was Leslie's first year on the City Council? The answer, naturally, is freakin' great.
