    The April Ludgate Show

    I dont enjoy these episodes where they force April into an "appealing" role. She's juvenile and petty, and obviously attention hungry, but yet they write these episodes where she seems to be the best of the bunch and everyone is so awed by her. Its unnatural and it always takes me out of the show.

    • Trivia
      For his character's filibuster, Patton Oswalt improvised an eight-minute monologue linking Disney's Star Wars and Marvel movie franchises as well as Greek mythology. The entire uncut take appears as an extra on the Season 5 DVD set.
    • Goofs
      When Donna is talking to Ann about Game of Thrones (2011), she says that Tyrion Lannister is the Lord of Casterly Rock. That is false; Tywin Lannister never made Tyrion his heir and Casterly Rock does not currently have a lord.
    • Quotes

      Leslie Knope: Today is Ted Party Day, where we commemorate the great Pawnee tea dump of 1817. Historical fun fact: When the founding fathers wrote the charter, their old-timey script made one of the As look like a D. So 'Tea' became 'Ted'. It's just one of those little things that reminds us of Pawnee's rich and vibrant past. Plus, we get to go find a guy named Ted and throw him in the lake.
