Parks and Recreation continues to be one of the most beloved sitcoms of the 2010's. Lucky for fans, the series can be watched on syndication and streaming services like Netflix (until October) and Peacock (which you can watch for free.) With over 120 episodes, there are many hilarious moments. We visited Internet Movie Database to see which episodes of the series are the highest rated. Here are the top five:
5. Win, Lose, or Draw - Season 4
This episode was the season four finale and gives fans a satisfying ending to Leslie's campaign run for city council. It was nice to see Leslie fulfill a dream she has wanted since childhood. Though it would have been interesting to see Brandi Maxxxx win. Ben is also contemplating taking a job in Washington and April tries to retrieve files she lost with the help of lovable Andy.
4. Leslie and Ben - Season 5
Leslie and Ben are finally getting married! However, Jamm wants to ruin her day and lets off several stink bombs during the ceremony. We then get to see Ron defend his best friend and punch Jamm in the face. The couple do get their happy ending when they are wed back at the Parks Department with all their close friends in attendance.
3. Moving Up Part Two - Season 6
The Unity concert is underway and is a huge success. There is a tribute to Lil'Sebastian and a special appearance by Ginuwine. Leslie has accepted a new prestigious job in Chicago and wants some of her old team to make the move with her. This perfectly sets up the flash forward the occurs in the seventh and final season.
2. One Last Ride - Season 7
Usually, series finales are rated pretty high by fans if done correctly. And Parks and Rec had an amazing send off for the characters we grew to love over the seven seasons. Each character is shown ten years in the future to show their success. And it looks like Leslie Knope finally becomes our President!
1. Leslie and Ron - Season 7
By far, my favorite episode of the series. It was nice to see I was not alone as Parks and Rec fans have rated this as the best episode. Ron and Leslie are in a longterm fight, so their friends lock them in the Parks Department overnight in order to hash things out. Luckily the two make up and continue to be one of the most treasured friendships on TV (sorry, Ann!)
