"An homage to Parks and Recreation (2009-15) and an exploration of how the show evolved
as a traditional network sitcom in a post-network era. This deep dive into the series
highlights the new norm of digital fandom, where social media has become a means for
fans to engage with the series beyond its runtime. While the media landscape evolved,
so did American sociopolitical discourse; Holladay examines the series contained entirely
within Barack Obama's presidency as it reflects the role of politics in American life
on a micro scale. The series follows the career and personal life of Leslie Knope
(Amy Poehler), a self-possessed, midlevel bureaucrat whose initial ideology reflects
the optimistic tone of politics ushered in with Obama's campaign and early presidency.
Throughout its run, Parks and Recreation engaged with political debates simmering
in American culture, offering a humorous ripped-from-the-headlines take on issues
such as same-sex marriage, distrust of politicians, government shutdowns, and corporate
bailouts Through compelling analysis, Holladay untangles representations of women
and BIPOC in the series as they engage with contemporary discourse surrounding media
and identity politics"
