The season six premiere of Parks and Rec picked up where season five left off. The hour long episode answered some very important questions while also creating some new ones.

The question of Ron’s fatherhood is answered. Yay! Audiences are also introduced to Tom’s “Rent A Swag” competition, conveniently named “Tommy’s Closet”–they have free pizza. Of course, no self-respecting Parks episode can exist without the always charming Jean Ralfio and Mona Lisa, who make a rather denim-full appearance, proving yet again that they are the worst.

The big adventure of the episode revolves around the gang’s trip to London. Ron, although hesitant, finds a part of Europe that he can tolerate. Andy is given a long term offer. And Leslie, of course, winds up in a bind during what should be a celebration and acceptance of an award.

Season six is off to a promising start. It’s safe to say the rest of the season will involve tying up loose ends while also creating new ones. But Leslie, although facing some troublesome waters, should be able to hold her ground, and her job. Here’s to hoping that the rest of the season can keep up and keep audiences entertained without falling victim to the plight of many other sitcoms: recycling jokes and losing the stories of the characters.
