Rashida Jones Reflects on 'Parks and Recreation' Journey

The beloved sitcom struggled with ratings and cancellation threats but found lasting success post-airing.

Jones revealed the cast felt they were 'holding on for dear life' due to constant cancellation threats.
The show never achieved high ratings during its original run from 2009 to 2015.
A turning point came during a cast reunion event five years ago, where the overwhelming fan reception was likened to 'Beatlemania.'
Despite early struggles, 'Parks and Recreation' is now considered an iconic comedy of its time.
The series continues to thrive through reruns and merchandise, gaining new viewers via streaming platforms.
