12. Parks & Recreation

Think of it like The Andy Griffith Show, but for a new generation. Parks & Recreation was a sweet-hearted sitcom set in rural Indiana and starring a group of well-meaning bureaucrats led by the effervescent Leslie Knope (a.k.a. the awesome Amy Poehler). It was a little show that managed to skewer the larger points of American society, but always with a hope for the future of mankind. Okay, if that sounds really lofty, just imagine that there’s also plenty of fart jokes and tons of Chris Pratt.
