With "Parks and Recreations" winding down, fans are pouring their hearts out over the love-drenched fifth season. With the series' coveted relationships between Ben and Leslie, April and Andy, and Chris and Ann going strong, we can only sit and wonder what's next on the menu for the lovebirds. Recent rumors have indicated that April might be leaving the Parks Department, so what does that mean for her lovable buffoon husband Andy?
"April is about to get some crazy news," said Aubrey Plaza of E! "I think that's coming up really soon. I can't tell you what it is, but it's crazy news and she's very surprised by it." Could the news pull her away from the Parks Department? Or perhaps could we be seeing the April and Andy baby that we've been praying for ever since the couple got hitched?
Unfortunately, there's one little snare in the plan. "Also, April summons the devil and the devil destroys the town of Pawnee," Plaza added. Well that sounds a bit aggressive. Regardless, why give up on a good thing? April and Andy's relationship is one of the most entertaining on the show, so it wouldn't make sense to have April leave. But then who does? Other "Parks and Rec" rumors indicate that there just may be a new job opening up in the Parks Department.
Later in the season, fans will have to say goodbye to the chubby, lovable klutz, Jerry. That's right, he's retiring. Perhaps he's retiring to live out his later years with his earned pension, or perhaps he's finally had enough of his colleagues' relentless teasing. Either way, it will be sad to watch him go.
There's not that much left of season five, and with Ben and Leslie already married, the only intrigue pulling fans along is Ann's hopes of becoming pregnant, and similarly the fans' hope of April getting pregnant. Something else has to shake things up a bit.
"Parks and Recreation" airs Thursday nights on NBC at 9 p.m.
