Asked to talk at length about whatever he wanted by the producers, Oswalt decided to rant about 'Star Wars Episode 7' and the results are bizarre and glorious as he spins off into 'The Avengers' and 'X-Men' and much much more.

Though still somewhat early in the Upfront seasons, several major broadcast networks have already gone ahead to grant early renewals to their strongest-performing series. Given NBC's troubled lineup over the past few months, however, no firm plans have been laid among even its strongest hits.

Say 'You're Awesomesauce' With These 'Parks and Rec' Valentines

What better way to tell somebody you love them than with the words of the great people of Pawnee? 'Parks and Rec' very generously shared these Valentine's Day greeting cards on their Pinterest, and we think they're swell. Tell somebody that you don't hate them, or even adore them, and if it gets weird just say "Hey, I'm sorry, I thought you LIKED that show." And then never talk to them again. Happy Valentine's Day!!

'Parks and Recreation' has had some great guest stars in its five years on the air, most recently with 'Breaking Bad' star Jonathan Banks, but can anything top the heavenly hotness of Christie Brinkley? Certainly not House Speaker Newt Gingrich, but you'd better believe he's going to try This Thursday's "Ron and Diane" will introduce Brinkley as Jerry Gergitch's long-discussed wife Gayle, as seen in the clip below, but what's this about Newt Gingrich scoring a surprise cameo?

'SNL's Andy Samberg Lands FOX Sitcom from 'Parks and Recreation' Producers

Kevin Fitzpatrick — Tue, 23 Oct 2012 13:30:00 +0000

Never fear, Andy Samberg fans. The timing of the unfortunate 'That's My Boy' with Andy Samberg's 'SNL' exit does not mean that the "D*ck in a Box" funnyman has abandoned TV for movies. In fact, we've just learned that Samberg has signed onto an untitled FOX comedy from the creators of 'Parks and Recreation,' but who will the new sitcom see Samberg playing? And what does it mean for the fate of 'Parks and Recreation?'

'Parks and Recreation' Season 5 Steals Julia Louis-Dreyfus's Husband for Mysterious New Role

We thought about making a joke about how 'Parks and Recreation's Amy Poehler stealing Julia Louis-Dreyfus' husband Brad Hall might have been what caused the split between her and Will Arnett, but then we just got sad. Then we tried to make it into a joke about Julia stealing Amy's Emmy for Outstanding Female Lead, but then we just got sad about her and Will Arnett again. But anyway, Brad Hall is going to be on 'Parks and Recreation,' or whatever.
