  • Thesis from Parks to Presidents: Political
    THESIS FROM PARKS TO PRESIDENTS: POLITICAL SENSIBILITIES OF NARRATIVE POLITICAL FICTION Submitted by Seth J. Willden Department of Communication Studies In partial fulfillment of the requirements For the Degree of Master of Arts Fort Collins, Colorado Summer 2016 Master’s Committee Advisor: Nick Marx Karrin Vasby Anderson Doug Cloud Copyright by Seth J. Willden 2016 All Rights Reserved ABSTRACT FROM PARKS TO PRESIDENTS: POLITICAL SENSIBILITIES OF NARRATIVE POLITICAL FICTION This thesis examines the ways televised narrative political fiction can portray political sensibilities. Using the NBC program, Parks and Recreation (2009-2015), and the Netflix streaming service program, House of Cards (2013-2016), I explore how narrative television presents political philosophies to audiences, equipping them to discuss political discourse. ii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Before we begin discussing the political implications of narrative television, I must first provide a narrative of acknowledgement. The MA program in Communication Studies is only a two-year program, and this document marks the end of that two-year journey. But I have been at Colorado State for five years. In a way, the last chapter of this thesis will be the last literal chapter of my five-year career as a CSU student. I wish to first thank the professors that transformed my understanding of the world: Dr. Thomas Dunn, Dr. Scott Diffrient, and Dr. Eric Aoki. You were my first communication studies professors. Each in turn provided excellent education, guidance and support throughout my time as a scholar. I will never forget your pedagogical styles and hunger for understanding the communicative processes of our world. Next I want to thank my thesis committee: Dr.

A small town that serves as Everytown, USA, Pawnee has problems, from its obesity crisis to the raccoon infestation to the corrupt Sweetums Candy Company dominating the economy. But no problem is too big or small to be solved by Pawnee local government. This committee begins at season 6, right when the pretentious town of Eagleton goes bankrupt and the merger begins. Will Leslie be recalled as city councilwoman? What will happen with Rent-A-Swag? How will two towns that have lived as sworn enemies integrate? From Ron to Donna to Ben to Ann to Garry-Jerry-Larry-Terry, it's up to Pawnee's Department of Parks and Recreation to save the merger--and perhaps the town itself. 1 Letter from the Director ________________________________________ Delegates, Welcome! It is my privilege to welcome you to FCMUN as your crisis director. Last year, I was the crisis director for the Democratic National Committee and it was a blast, ending in Chance the Rapper being declared Emperor of my home city of Chicago, Bill De Blasio annihilating Trump Tower with the help of his assistant Kim Kardashian, and Bernie leading a secession movement for the northeast states. I can’t wait to see you all plot and solve more crazy crises.

JOURNAL OF ECONOMICS AND FINANCE EDUCATION • Volume 14 • Number 1 • Summer 2015 Swansonomics: Using “Parks and Recreation” to Teach Economics L. Brooke Conaway and Christopher Clark1 ABSTRACT Based on a first-year multidisciplinary course, Swansonomics is a class where students examine the libertarian beliefs espoused by the character Ron Swanson from the television series Parks and Recreation. The show provides great examples of rent seeking, fiscal policy issues, social policy issues, and bureaucratic incentive structures. These Parks and Recreation video clips can be used in any class to cover a variety of issues. Examples of topics include the expected economic consequences of specific political or economic philosophies, unintended consequences of policies, various systems of taxation, public and private incentive structures, and varying degrees of capitalism and government intervention. Introduction This paper is based on a first-year multidisciplinary course taught at a liberal arts university. The course covers a variety of topics, with particular emphasis on different economic systems, varying degrees of capitalism, government intervention, and public choice issues.

What are you doing? JOE I’m sorry. There’s just something about your scent that invigorates me. LESLIE Well, congratulations. That’s one of the creepiest things a guy has ever said to me. (beat, embarrassed) At this water cooler. JOE (sincerely) Thank you. But even though you send out these vibes that attract me to you like a raccoon in heat, I didn’t come here only to seduce you. I came to give your poor Parks Department a fair warning. LESLIE A fair warning for what? JOE Looks like you won the unlucky slot of playing us again at this year’s picnic. LESLIE What!? We’re playing you guys!? Again!? "The Softball Game" 2.

  • Parks and Recreation Special Guests: Rob Lowe, Adam Scott, and Michael Schur
    The West Wing Weekly 0.07: Parks and Recreation Special Guests: Rob Lowe, Adam Scott, and Michael Schur HRISHI: You’re listening to a special episode of The West Wing Weekly. Today, we’re talking about all the ways in which The West Wing helped influence another show about idealistic people in government: Parks and Recreation. JOSH: Parks and Rec aired on NBC from 2009 to 2015, was nominated for loads of Emmys and a couple of Golden Globes, including a win for its star Amy Poehler in the role of Leslie Knope who, frankly, would have done very well in the Bartlet administration. HRISHI: If you haven’t seen Parks and Rec: one, get on it because you’re missing out, and two if you want a quick crash course before you keep listening to this episode, press pause here and then we recommend you watch, at a bare minimum, the last two episodes of Season 2, plus the “Live Ammo” episode which is Season 4, Episode 19. JOSH: This is an amazing show and if you can’t be bothered to watch all of it, well God, Jed, I don’t even wanna know you. HRISHI: There are two parts to our conversation today. We spoke with the co-creator of the show, Michael Schur, who is also responsible for creating or co-creating a bunch of great TV shows: the American version of The Office and then Parks and Rec, followed by Brooklyn 99, and then most recently, The Good Place. Some of the best TV around.
