Parks & Recreation’s executive producer Mike Schur has revealed that he expects April and Andy to remain happy for the time being.
The duo, played by Aubrey Plaza and Chris Platt, got married in the third season.
Aubrey Plaza has previously described the relationship between the pair as “really cool”.
Schur has now revealed that the duo will still be in their “honeymoon phase” when the show returns in September.
“I don’t feel the need to put them through the wringer,” he told TV Guide. “Stories require conflict, and I’m sure at some point we’re going to [delve] into their conflict.
“But so far the kind of stories we’ve been pitching for them are along the lines of goofing off and having a good time. We have a lot of fun stories for them.”
The fourth season of Parks & Recreation will premiere on September 22 on NBC.
NBC has just announced their fall line-up and the season 4 premiere episode of “Parks and Recreation” will be airing on Thursday, September 22 at 8:30 p.m.!
Video Service Corp. (VSC) have given us the heads-up that they’ve acquired the rights to release Portlandia on home video in the United States (where it already has aired on IFC) and Canada (where it will be broadcasting soon). The funny show is being planned for both DVD and high-def Blu-ray Disc, and right now is being projected for release on December 6th. In case you’re not familiar with the program, here’s a description of it taken from IFC’s website:
The 6-part IFC Original short-based comedy series PORTLANDIA – created, written by and starring Fred Armisen (SNL) and Carrie Brownstein (vocalist/guitarist, WILD FLAG, Sleater-Kinney) – premiered on IFC Friday, January 21, 2011. Each episode’s character-based shorts draw viewers into “Portlandia,” the creators’ dreamy and absurd rendering of Portland, Oregon.
“I love Portlandia. It really represents so much of what I love culturally, musically and in so many other ways,” said Fred Armisen. “This started as just a fun summer activity for Carrie and me. We’d be hanging out in Portland and shooting whatever made us laugh, and that evolved into Portlandia.”
PORTLANDIA’s inhabitants include but are not limited to: the owners of a feminist book store; a militant bike messenger; an artsy couple who attach cut-outs of birds to everything (“put a bird on it!”); an organic farmer who turns out to be a cult leader; an adult hide and seek league; and a punk rock couple negotiating a “safe word” to help govern their love life. The first episode depicts Armisen and Brownstein meeting with the Mayor of Portland (Kyle MacLachlan) who solicits the duo to write a new theme song for the city. This segment features a cameo from the real mayor of Portland (Sam Adams) playing the assistant to MacLachlan’s “mayor.” Much of the series’ original music is written and performed by Armisen and Brownstein.
An assortment of guest stars inhabit PORTLANDIA, including Kyle MacLachlan (Twin Peaks, Sex & The City), Aubrey Plaza (Parks and Recreation), Selma Blair (Legally Blonde, Hellboy), Heather Graham (The Hangover), Edie McClurg (Ferris Bueller’s Day Off), Kumail Nanjiani (Michael & Michael Have Issues), Jason Sudeikis (SNL, The Cleveland Show), and Gus Van Sant (Milk). Singer/songwriter Aimee Mann also guest stars, alongside James Mercer (The Shins), and local Portland musicians Jenny Conlee and Colin Meloy (The Decemberists) and Corin Tucker (Sleater-Kinney).
