Ben Wyatt is making my standards for guys too damn high
You ain't knope
Good! Keep them! What's the point of a relationship with a guy you can't respect or a guy who is a jerk? Keep those standards. As long as you do your best to improve yourself as well, there's no reason why you can't expect to find a good guy someday.
@@shankardas6938 we're not Ben either.
Apply those standards to yourself and you'll end up with someone decent .. at least that's the way I'm attempting to look at it.
Ben Wyatt’s defining characteristic is that he simply respects enthusiastically ambitious-career women. You don’t have to have a lot of standards to get that. Hell, that mutual level of respect should even be the bare minimum of what you seek in a guy.
I like how leslie was nothing but mad and insulting to him in the beginning and ben was just like....u want to get a beer. Lol
Does that work?
@@emonbhuiyan4034 apparently yeah it does for ben
@@emonbhuiyan4034 Behave like a friendly and understandable person, instead than an a's, to someone that thinks you're an a's? Yeah, If It doesn't sound mocking or ironical, If It comes off as sincere, and the other person is even slightly interested in hearing you, It usually works when you try to smooth the relationship. It shouldn't be really a surprise, though. 🤣
She said she liked his shirt.
I think Ben said in one of the episodes that before he started working with Chris he'd get death threats... I guess he's used to people getting mad at him
I love that leslie was like "you are garbage" and ben's response was like "i am immediately attracted to you"
mr. darcy n Elizabeth bennet vibes
@@yourtrinketbox person of culture I see
he’s one of t h o s e
i think he already had a lot of guilt about how his whole job was going from city to city, avoiding human connection in order to fire people wherever he could. when he found someone who was really willing to stand up to him he connected in a weird self loathing kinda way. also just from seeing someone being passionate about helping people, like he originally was before icetown broke him. also he thought she was hot
And thus fans knew Ben is a sub
“Get out of here”
“Leslie, that was sooo professional” 😂😂😂
True friendship 😂
That’s a true friend right there lol
That scene always gets to me no matter how many times I watch it 😆😆😆
“You wanna get a beer?” The best way to begin a true love story.
No joke, that’s the first thing my dad ever said to my mom. Married for 28 years and still strong.
@@fireflyeclipse this feels like an AskReddit story
Beer...The equator of the universe
When Ben goes and offers Freddy Spaghetti more money to help Leslie, that’s when I knew he liked her
💯
Nah, he just wanted her to stop singing 🤣, but yes they're so cute!
Yes I agree that is the point everybody should realize this!!!
@@apollosunshine3375 I think that was his “excuse”. But he was fascinated by her by then for sure!
I knew like, moments after he showed up I think ? They Freddy Spaghetti thing was definitely painfully cute, I loved that
he fell for her so fast. that smile when she walked away from him at the concert was love
exactly 🥺
that was topnotch acting 😅🤣
I love the way they built this relationship up so much. Especially with the way Ben was introduced in the show, almost as an antagonist, only for us as the audience to grow to love him. At the same time, we get to watch Ben fall in love with how awesome Leslie Knope is. They both complement one another so well, understand each other's passions and are willing to make sacrifices to ensure each other's best interests, and ultimately they make each other a better person in being together. Honestly one of my favorite relationships depicted on TV.
Me too. I like them even better than Pam and Jim
@@IHavent82Day same
@@IHavent82Day totally
The only relationship that can level with this one is Amy and Jake from B99. Same producers though, which shows ❤ they write the most gorgeous love stories, the kind one really should aspire to
i feel like the wallflower mural moment was THE moment... ya feel?
Absolutely for Leslie.
YES.
Yes
Literally, the best.
For her. For him, I think it was Leslie's flu speech.
Ben watching Leslie at the meeting when she has the flu kills me every time 😭 the cutest tv couple ever!
Ben did the Jim Halpert face better than Jim Halpert.
It was so adorable 🥲
He was so gone for her
The way he looked at her he really did fall in love with her right then and there
“Leslie that was so professional 🥺”
Me anytime my friends do something stupid and I still hype them up
People're saying that he liked her since flu episode but imo he liked her since she yelled at him the first time and you can't change my mind
Agree. Look at how he apologized for intruding after she kept railing at him.
*Our starship is in trouble...*
lol
So painful
I think all the interactions and moments he had with Leslie before the flu were him genuinely respecting her, admiring her, and being impressed with her all the while thinking she was cute, funny, and special. But when Leslie got the flu and Ben saw her amazing-ness in full force that day, that is when he completely and utterly fell in love with her ❤️
Wow Ben fell for her first .... and he fell hard 😍
theEmpress13 It was painful watching that cutie wait for her. I think he started to like her a lot when she had a flu
wahhhhhhhhhh
then they never stopped falling
I just noticed that
Most boys do
I love that Leslie seemed like a natural fit for Chris first.
It's a good misdirect. But Leslie and Chris are too similar to be together I think.
As someone who is very similar to Leslie, I can say my type has been much more of a “Ben” for a long time 😂
One of my favorite scenes in the entire show is at Anne's goodbye party and Anne and Ben are giving tips on taking care of each other's spouse.
Not gonna lie I thought her and Ron would get together at first O-O💧
@@jacobwheeler1348 Not at all. Chris seems like he cares, Leslie actually cares.
8:31 The actual moment leslie fell in love with him. Look at her.
And 5:06 was the moment he fell in love with her
YOU BOTH SENT ME TO ADS XDD
@@Mia.S13 me too 😂😭
Na before that
8:10 I think it was at the wallflower mural scene.
leslie: "SHUT UP ANN, I'M DOING ANYWAY!"
ann: "YAAAY!"
n o d o n t d o i t .
Noo..don't ..stop..
@@khemlata3695 was that a Willy wonka reference
@@CHRL-to2gx no..it's from park & recs only.
her face when he said about the sunflower mural...
That was the moment I knew they’d be together
That was my face too because we knew that was her favourite spot and I felt like melting because these two nerds were meant to be!
That feels like the moment she fell for him ❤️❤️❤️
How's Annie?
She became a sunflower mural
Him being so forceful about the soup and it being such an old recipe is the most platonic and yet 100% certain way to say, "I am hella into you and want you to one day be a part of my family" I have ever seen
5:22 I love the “that was Leslie knope”
I remember when I first watched I was like "Really? Leslie and Ben?" and now they're one of my favorite couples ever portrayed on the small screen.
When she was so mean to him at the beginning 😭
because he was trying to slash the city budget, leaving Leslie's projects less likely to come to fruition
I kinda love that she hated him so much in the beginning! 😂 The I hate him to I love him progression was so damn beautiful
@@pushon10 not his fault...
Chris: you deserve someone amazing
Camera: (cuts to leslie)
Chris: smart
Camera: (holds on leslie)
Chris: and beautiful
Camera: (cuts back to chris)
I just realized Chris is also a tall brunette
Ohmygod
I can't unsee this now 🤣😱😭
NOOOOO!!!!
ben never got his hints…
“that was leslie knope” my heart
I love how loyal Jerry is. When Leslie storms off he’s right behind her giving Ben the death stare 3:41
The chicken soup part gets me everytime 😂😍
same 🥺 but really, every part of their story gets me
ILL TAKE THE WAFFLES lolol
I feel bad about Ben's handmade chicken soup
She probably had it after all that sugar and processed food .... You need soup when you're sick for hydration and salt!!
Leslie: passion and energy
Ben: knowledge and focus
Power couple!
that fucking painting of leslie as a centaur gets me everytime
Ben Wyatt is my definition of the perfect man. Helps that he’s Adam Scott
I relate to bens awkwardness so much
Just noticed the monster sized tub of hand sanitiser on Chris’s desk. Great details
that would be worth a few thousand dollars in the current market
chris traeger would singlehandedly end the pandemic if he was real
Love how Leslie's persistent aura made Ben slowly care about giving instead of cutting. She made it realistic for him to hope again.
I loved Leslie talking to herself through Ann.
I have never watched the show and I already love them with every part of my being my heart is bursting
Then you should watch it, you'll love them even more trust me
What are you waiting for?? :v
Also haven’t watched the show, is it on Netflix?
@@niyazhassan3324 I think is on Amazon Prime...
Watch it! Download the peacock app, it’s free to watch. You have to watch a few 60 second commercials, but worth it.
“All the good ones are taken huh”
“Yeah”
Shows Ron
8:25 - by far my favorite moment from the start of their relationship. Just the look on her face when he likes and is drawn to that obscure thing that she loves and was shouting at Ann about earlier.
"That was...Leslie Knope".
And the rest was history!!
My initial reaction to this video notification and thumbnail was awwwwwww. I need a Ben to my Leslie I'm here
I remember when I watched Parks and Rec, I was totally on Ben's side the whole time. Sure, him implementing the budget cuts wasn't pleasant, but he was performing a completely necessary function and wasn't exactly being nasty about it either, just to the point. And then you have Chris who just said nice things and left Ben to be 'bad cop'. Because of that, I really didn't like Chris at first because he basically dumped everything on Ben and pretended eveything was sunshine and rainbows.
Chris was actually the bad guy in season 3. But he wasn't being fake Chris is just a very happy person. He explains why on his first date with Ann. He was supposed to die as a child but never did. So that's why he is always positive. It's when Chris's ideals are challenged when he starts to spiral.
They said that Ben was always that way though so I think they just didn't grow past him being harsh
I legit don't like Chris. His character is hella funny, but I would hate knowing him. He's toxically positive, his relationship with Ann actively makes her a more insecure and anxious person, and despite the intensive therapy he underwent, Chris never changes for the better. I don't even understand why Ann decided to have a baby with him at the end, like he tells her early on that he has a blood disorder that very well could be passed down to their children. Chris sucks so much as a person, which is a real shame considering Rob Lowe is a lovely actor and does very well portraying him.
Fortunately they later explained that that was just their method, which they both agreed upon. Chris doesn't want to be mean, and Ben enjoyed larping as the bad cop.
@@unknown_limes nah i don't think Chris sucked. He became a lot less obsessive over time, and he was very sweet with Ann when they were planning for the baby. He reassured her that she'd be a great parent because she wants what's best for the kid despite their different parenting styles. Sure he never completely drops his extreme optimism and health obsession, but it gets better and he learns to listen to other people.
oh my gosh i had such a huge crush on ben wyatt gOOShHS
We need a best of Orin
Noted down!
Parks and Recreation i love you whoever runs this channel
Sam Bryant me too
Yay best of Orin posted
@@parksandrecreation6607 Other CZcams Channels should learn from this one
I think my favorite was when Leslie said "a real goddess" smirks and walks away, and the way Ben looks at her is *chef's kiss*
I adore her reaction at 8:30.
Their relationship is my all time fav TV show - it wasn't too cheesy but was cute, based on lots of chemistry and they were a great team. Kudos to the writers for not having them constantly break up either
9:07 “A real goddess.” Haha love it!
🌻 the wallflower mural 🌻
I wish they kept the part when the wamapoke chief blew dirt into Bens face to lift the curse haha
"two people obsessed with each other in different ways" is my favorite
01:09 I'm lowkey rob lowe every time someone having an awkward conversation
My all time fave loveline❤ Ben is the ultimate lover goals😍
I'm genuinely crying because I just finished Parks and Recreation and I know it's cheesy but I love how everything worked out for everyone and I literally screamed when I saw Ann in the last episode ‼️😭
Hands down my favourite show because of Leslie Knope 😭😭
And now I'm watching all the happy times on CZcams because what else?!!
i just finished season 7 and i dont know what to do with my life anymore😭
Thank you for blessing me with this content today! I really needed it!
I like your username :D
"That was leslie knope" is the most wholesome line
4:52, I'm calling it. That's when little Benji Wyatt started to get a crush on Leslie. 5:20 is when he fell for her. They are so damned cute together!
Lol Chris doing pullups in the background at 1:39 XD
I love how Chris is just doing pull ups in the background
Wall flower mural gets me every time
Hi we need the 2nd part asap
I NEED IT NOW
"plus i just talked to everybody in this bar and nobody wants you here"
he’s so babygirl
epitome of couple goals
They’re just the cutest
"Half naked Leslie, glued to a horse " will always be one of my favorite lines in thus awesome show
my personal ranking of couple from the office, parks and rec and b99:
1- leslie and ben
2- jake and amy
3- jim and pam
4- michael and holly
5- april and andy
6- holt and kevin
7- dwight and angela
8- chris and ann
April and Andy and Micheal and Holly should switch, but other than that agreed.
I was looking for Eleanor and Chidi for a solid couple of minutes before realising that wasn’t one of the shows
@@jjaster hahaha yeah if it were they'd be pretty high on the list for me though
Sorry by Elenor and Chidi are coming for the crown.
@@Stella-iW123 yeah
Ben and Leslie > Jim and Pam
Jim and Pam are terrible people
hell yeah!
THANK YOU
@@MrAshiq844 Everyone in the office are pretty dysfunctional
@@edwardheaney3641 Jim and Pam are the worst though, they constantly bullt Dwight and the one time he fought back Jim acted like a bitch and not to mention the circumstance where they hooked up was when she was engaged. nothing redeeming about them
9:06 that was smooth af
8:32 can literally pinpoint the moment she fell in love
It's funny how Leslie's speech was the only time Ben made sports metaphor. The Ben whom we ended the show with would probably make a metaphor about Leslie being like Batman, Captain Picard or someone from Game of Thrones
I love when he asks her about the wallflower mural and she nods "Mmm hmm", it's such a warm interested expression on her face
I always forget how during the Freddie spaghetti episode, Ben wanted to cut Leslie's job and Ron was doing everything he could to save it. I wonder if they ever talked about that later on...
Now that’s development
"That was Leslie Knope", That's where he fell in love with her
Chris’s “LESLIE!” at the end was timed so well I died
I love Ben and how he absolutely adores and admires Leslie
Ben is like Leslie's mr darcy
Ben's outfits attracts me for some reason 😆
They are my favorite couple of all time. This video doesn't show it but, "I love you and I like you" just wrecks me every time.
“Your job is on the line!”
“Shut up, Ann!!!”
The way Chris says, "NoandIdidn'task" so fast at 8:08 makes me only think he did in fact ask and just realised he almost outted Ben to his crush
He's so adorable.
I think he fell in love when she got the flu, and she fell in love when he talked about the mural 😭😍😭😍
This is stunning, getting to see everything again and relive it. Thank you! 💕
She was so rude to him and yet he fell for her
3:01- the moment he started falling
I love how at 6:50 , after he says all the good ones are taken they zoom into Ron, too. LMAO
omggg 💀 i didn’t even realize that 😂
thats literally hilarious 🤣
Ben and Leslie were my favorite couple. Chris was my favorite guy, Leslie and Donna are my favorite ladies on the show. Ron was my favorite Ron on the show.
When Ben asked her if she wanted to run for office, it helped her fall in love with him
The BEST P&R couple fight me
With what? Ben and Calzones?
“I don’t appreciate your callous attitude” should’ve been “I don’t appreciate your calzone attitude”
missed out on some of my personally favourite moments: ben seeing the painting (💀), the entire road trip/date and the aggressive hitting on each other at the club lol
“This building has feelings?” He sounded genuinely curious 😂
You are burning up.......whuat?
Amy delivered that line so well
I love them ❤ thank you for sharing this with us!
I love them so much together! Their love story is amazing! 😍 Can’t wait for part 2! 😍
“all the good ones are taken huh”
“nah”
*zooms in on ron*
THE- THE FACT THAT- THAT ITS THE WALLFLOWER MURAL UGHHH
When, he asked her to get a beer at 10:30 in the morning! LOL! I knew, they were going to end up together!
