ABOUT PARKS AND RECREATION
From Emmy Award-winning executive producers Greg Daniels (NBC’s “The Office,” “King of the Hill”) and Michael Schur (NBC’s “The Office,” “Saturday Night Live”), “Parks and Recreation” is a hilarious ensemble comedy that follows Leslie Knope (Emmy and Golden Globe nominee Amy Poehler, NBC’s “Saturday Night Live,” “Baby Mama”), a mid-level bureaucrat in the Parks and Recreation Department of Pawnee, Indiana, and her tireless efforts to make her quintessentially American town just a little bit more fun.

This is character development. Ron evolved from redacting his middle name from friends to saying his full name in front of strangers.
I THOUGHT THE SAME THING
Hey I'm Joel Miller
@@stan9912 oh no
It's not only that, but it shows that while he's still particular about a lot of his ideals, he's not a complete libertarian caricature in his ideology anymore.
He approves of the federal government conserving land, and treats those that work under him fairly and equally, rather than subjecting them to absolute anarchy as he would in previous seasons.
You have to love when you have just the right actor(s) and just the right writer(s), to be able to develop a character so well. Brooklyn 99 is another one with Captain Holts development over the series.
"Year 2022" sounds like someone knew the year 2020 and 2021 werent worth showing
"Despite recent financial crisis....."
Hmmmmmmmmmmm

THEY KNEW IT
Adithya Arya wait did they predict the future? What year was this episode made?
@@nighthawk4744 Every 8 years a republican president is elected and creates a new financial crisis, so the writers were just going off history.
They also predicted the Cubs winning a few years back.😄
“ I resign from chairman” -
“ care to explain why?”
“No”
I guess he was Dunn
"What just happened?"
Just remember that whenever that actor wants to sign his name NO is acceptable
@@mclukas808 dunn and done
>walks in
> says “I resign from Chairman”
>refuses to elaborate
>leaves
"I still know how to forge your signature" So much makes more sense right now about this show.
Also he refuses to right in cursive so you could just right “Ron Swanson” and people would believe it
@@chrisholmes4684 *W-R-I-T-E
His face when she says that is gold.
Funny how Leslie is all about doing the right thing yet forging someone's signature on a federal form is no big deal. Type of gal that likes it up the poopah.
@@DJ_Mooseknucks wtf 😂
This relationship was the back bone of the show
Definitely
Ron's love of food was, but this was a close second. Or at least in proximity.
Agreed. End of speech.
@xSah2 Money was not necessarily a measure of success that Ron or Leslie actually cared that much about. Leslie enjoyed doing work worth doing alongside people she loved, which was never about the money.
Jean ralphio and tax fraud
"Show up to work on time, speak honestly, and treat everyone with fairness" if only everyone could live with that kind of conviction.
@somethingsomethingDarkSide as much as possible... Or as I should say, As much as this life allows me to. Some times I run out of bacon whilst on a hike and then I hate everything😁
What's time?
Honesty never works, never.
I got 2 out of three
I like how how he said "treat everyone with fairness" instead of "treat everyone with respect". Respect shouldn't be given automatically but earned fairly
"We were workplace proximity acquaintances for many years." Perfect.
You're getting emotional
Ronald Dictionary definition for "Friend"
What is perfect is that Nick Offerman actually made the canoe beached at the park
@@ClickBeetleTV Yep! Turns out the woodshop that Ron uses is also Nick's, as he an avid woodworker. Offerman is such an interesting guy in general despite not sharing too many actual similarities with Ron personality-wise
Crying:
Acceptable at funerals and the Grand Canyon...
...and at this part of the episode.
And when a bus hits you when you were 8.
And little Sebastian‘s death
@@koppanykohary1217 wtf you’re embarrassing yourself
@@nesa1126And when reading poetry in Scotland near the Logavulin distillery.
Koppány Koháry it was when I was seven.
The fact that they came all the way to Scotland to film in front of the actual Lagavulin distillery is amazing dedication if you ask me; Most production companies would just throw up a mock set that looks like it
The show gave Lagavulin great press over the years, though. I could see them being enthusiastic about the concept.
Well they did so many location shoots over the course of the show it’s really not all that surprising
They could've just shot the scene during their first trip.
@@lostalone9320 Also Nick did make a special edition lagavulin batch (called the offerman edition) so this could have been in conjunction with that.
Nick is actually a really big fan of the drink as well!

Ron first day as president
*Assembles cabinet*
Ron: I know more than you
*Leaves Room*
Ron hates the federal government he would never run for president
Nah, he would pull out a paper with "I can do whatever I want" writing on it.
That's exactly what the current president thinks...
Is it weird that the first time I read this, I thought you meant Ron literally assembles a cabinet
@@anthonyrichardson3253 Thank God for that.
Leslie is the kind of friend everyone needs.
Not everyone deserves a Leslie Knope.
Why not try to be a friend like Leslie Knope?... nah, that's a f**k ton of work
Be a Leslie for yourself, and be a Leslie to those you meet. You can still be a Ron when you need to be, but give everyone the chance to show their Leslie side.
@@---cv1dj I dig it 👏🏻👏🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Not if you’re Jerry
“I once made the mistake of not talking to you in such a moment.”
Ron’s best attempt at asking Leslie for a job his second time around. And by god it worked.
Ron's face after Leslie told him about forging his signature hhahaha
was not expecting a fellow Creatures fan here. I salute you
He bought 51% of Lagavulin hahaha
Ryder'sCove hahaha i know right.. 😆
Yes coz that makes him the guy who owns most of the company
Wjimenez923 basically he owns the company because he can make all the decisions by himself now
By just selling "some" of his gold. Lol
He's not sure how much money he has. Although, he does know how many pounds of money he has. Damn. That's baller.
Notice how in the beginning, no one knew Ron's middle name because he was super secretive about everything. But throughout the years Leslie has taught Ron about opening up himself to others. In the end, although he said he wasn't looking for new friends, he gladly gave his middle name.
Also note that he left the office company right before he refused to give a speech. Then right before he started the next one he gave a speech.
Al OOF I’m crying
And his middle name just makes him sound manlier, haha!
Nobody asked for your life story bud.
And also... Ron is always looking for more friends.
After this episode aired and the series ended I truly started to contemplate my life and as surprising as it is. I’m actually going into an internship at a National Park near where I live because of it. This episode truly inspired me. I know she isn’t real and I know I may not ever get to meet the actor who portrayed her in real life, but thank you Leslie Knope. Thanks for inspiring me to chase my dreams.
UPDATE: I wasn’t eaten by a bear! Don’t worry! But the internship went really well and I found that I actually fit quite well in working the landscape of the National Parks Service! I’m graduating this year and I’m going into college as a biology major!
That's amazing! Good luck to you!
Best of luck!
Don't get emotional, you're embarassing yourself
Amazing. Now you've inspired me!
Wow, that's some guy!
The closer this gets to the end of fiscal year 2022, the more impressive it is thinking that Ron's financial guidance got their company through it.
And Tom went broke after 2019, they predicted a bunch of things
I’m so ridiculously jealous of the future in Parks & Rec vs the present today
Ron canoeing in complete happiness to end the show makes me tear up every time. It's so great.
I wish that this part was in the video
@@Marksmal wishsx
He probably built the canoe in real life
@@wnerko7484 He actually did. That very canoe in the scene is Nick Offerman's (the guy who played Ron Swanson). Offerman is a very good (I don't want to say master as I don't know his training) woodsman, and has built several canoes before.
@@stefsmurfthats pretty cool👍
This has genuinely motivated me to pursue a career as a park ranger, & I can't believe I never considered it before
How hard is it
Good luck Dane!
Good luck, hope you don’t fail and end up fired with no plans
Like me
well, I hope you have friends who can shuffle things around so you get the job instead of someone else. As shown in the clip...
I guess that’s true
They cut off the last bit, with Ron in his canoe.
TheWackokid1974 that was the nicest bit too, with Willie in the background. So lovely
@@lovelyMissInna and those emotions and satisfaction in his eyes. Priceless.
Buddy.
Maybe that's the one he built for proposing to Diane
IDK why but that scene made me cry a bit
Perfect example of how people of different beliefs can and should treat each other. Sure, it’s scripted, but I find it inspiring nonetheless.
inflameslp311 Don't get emotional, you will make an idiot of yourself.. Ron Swanson
*sheepishly nods in agreement and sits down*
Exactly
inflameslp311 you would be amazed at how many Republicans are like him. And I have plenty of liberal friends. I hope they feel I’m a decent fellow even if they might compare my politics to those of the Dark Lord Vader himself. The important thing is to humanize them. Have a conversation. Not an argument :)
I think Ron was more of a libertarian than a republican, but I haven't really watched the show back to front.
2022: "despite the recent financial crisis, [...]" uh oh i guess parks and recs just knew
Every ten years there's a "recent financial crisis". People don't learn and you can expected the unexpected to happen
@@elonwhatever in general yes but different factors make it take longer or shorter.
@@elonwhatever Black Swans are normal...sadly.
"But not too fine as I am not looking to make any new friends"
end of speech
He knows what he's about son
Had to give you 1k likes
“As far as your qualifications, you’re Ron Swanson”
That’s fair
I've always hoped Leslie would have said "You're Ron f*cking Swanson" a call back to his hernia episode.
@@coffeefan841 don't forget about the episode when tammy 1 appeared and when he told her "I'm Ron Swanson and You're leslie Fu*king Knope".
1:20 don’t get emotional Vaughn you’re embarrassing yourself”. That face is considered emotional in the Swanson family😂
Only in funerals and the Grand Canyon.
Fon*
I really love how Ron is such a good step-father. Being so proud of all his kids
On Ron’s resume:
Under qualifications it just says “Ron Swanson”
In one episode, he had a permit saying something like I am parks and recs manager, I can do what ever I want on a paper and handing to some officer
Ron doesn't repeat himself. Resume already has his name on it, under qualifications it, probably, just says "I know more than you".
And, is there a problem? I believe that is perfect qualifications.
mustafa karabiyik iwas y
Better yet: "I am Ron Swanson."
I'm not a rich man, but investing in a Scotch distillery? If I had the money, I'd do it in a heartbeat.
Lagavulin is the best whisky in the world. Is not just a brand is a passion and he bought it.
That's because you are a wise fellow.
He has some money in the gold industry
Never had whiskey
@@robfab5204 you are missing out. A good whiskey is a pleasure that anyone can enjoy.
Ron's flash forward was the best part of the finale, and the most emotional one. It would have packed more of a punch in this clip if they included the end when Ron paddles in his canoe, smiling happily while "Buddy" played. His relationship with Leslie is the best part of the show and the ending reflects their absolute trust, devotion and understanding of each other. It was the perfect end for Ron, all because he reached out to his "workplace proximity acquaintance." The perfect moment to a perfect series finale.
Leslie Knope and Ron Swanson are my most favorite characters set in a fictional workplace proximity of all time!
Thank you for this.
maria cecilia jardeleza Ron Swanson was just a name given to Nick Offerman for the show. All he did was be himself.
Steven Duering I know right, it would be so cool to just play yourself on a tv show
Mine was the 300th like, please and thank you
michael scott and pam beesley would be proud
Hi.
I just realized that's Nick's actual family on the other side of the table at the board meeting lmao! Great touch
bo cephus you can see his father in the back lol I never noticed that is a great touch
Gotta love how Ron went from running the Pawnee rangers, the almost Boy Scout-esque troop back in Season 4 to running the Pawnee National Park Rangers at the end here. Talk about an arc.
Then his disembodied head becomes immortalized energy, and ends up running the Power Rangers.
I feel deprived of the Swanson family. Highly underused characters
you have to dose so much awesomeness to the audience. To much Swanson charme can cause extreme pain to normal people
Benjamin Midthun scene 1(family dinner): a very quiet intense dinner with ron and diane sitting on both heads of rons hand made dinning room table. The girls sitting next to each other and john sitting in on the other side of a self constructed wooden chair as he carves his steak.
Scene 2: john sits on his self made rocking chair staring intensely at the camera as he pours a himself a glass of orange juice without losing contact. He then sips the juice as a baby wolf sits below his feat.
kspot legends beautiful
Don't get emotional Ben you're embarrassing yourself...
@@yew2oob954 It's 'Vaughn'. As in Ron, Don, Lon, and Vaughn.
It really shows personal growth for Ron that he actually gives a speech, and encourages his workers to "speak honestly" rather than not speak at all.
I already love this scene for so many reasons that most people here have pointed out, but 3:09 Leslie's delivery of "you'd work outside, you'd talk to bears, next argument" is just so cute to my ears.
"Dont get too emotional Von, you're embarrassing yourself" 😂😂😂
Just realized that Ron told his new staff his full name, without batting an eye.
Anyone notice how Leslie said "She convinced the current head to transfer" and "shuffled some things around" to get him the job. Dayum Leslie you came far.
the scene with Ron in the kayak is honestly such a beautiful piece of film. Brings tears to an American's eyes everytime
Anand Avirmed thats a canoe.
and to the eyes of an Englishwoman
The old american kayak
I almost shed a tear at the end, but I felt my inner Swanson's disappointment...... So I went to go cut wood for an hour to burn later
Well, crying IS acceptable at funerals in the Swanson way of life, and this episode is kind of a funeral for the series, so i guess it would have been ok. ;-)
No wonder he's not looking for new friends. His old ones can bring the mountains to him and forge his signature on Federal paperwork.
This was one of my favorite ending scenes (although I wish we'd seen more of Diana). Thanks for posting!
We saw enough of 'Diana' in the Spartacus tv show. LOL.
Diane
Stephi Cham I know the last we saw of Diane was like when they got married (I think)
This scene made me cry for 5 minutes.
Love the detail that Dianne’s girls smile for the photo while her future son with Ron is frowning like father like son 😂
I love how they ended Ron’s career. He deserved to walk the lands clean. This was one of the best series’s finale’s ever.
Ron Swanson as the Superintendent of a national park just fits so perfectly I think I'm gunna cry
Fun fact: the guy sitting next to Ron is Nick Offerman’s real brother 0:56
I see the resemblance
I love how Ron always finishes speeches with “end of speech”. 😂🤣
I love how Ron's brother's face immediately says "I guess I'm in charge now." 1:04
So weird seeing a heartfelt conversation on that bench in Washington. Normally it's political espionage meetings held there
2:58 workplace proximity acquaintances...classic Ron
A true man, net a good being. Give all, expect nothing, and give it away without regret. To have no emotional tie to possessions, loveit.
0:53 notice how they perfectly predicted this year's financial crisis
Yes, it's called a lucky guess and had it been wrong no one would have noticed that it was. It's easy to recognize lucky guess than it is incorrect ones.
@@845835 you must be fun at parties
@@Karynthian The life of them
Hard to imagine any two friends that love and respect each other more than these two. Both so fundamentally different but manage to only see the best in each other. To me, this is the heartbeat of the show.
them holding hands at the park was my favorite ever platonic friendship moment ever.
they need to make a show about rons new job kind of like parks and rec and the office
Buddy boi Hehe memes Ron Sawnson ROCKS!
It's called Brickleberry lmao
H
they did. It's called Yogi Bear.
They actually made a movie about that team of park rangers one year after Ron Swanson's leadership. That movie is called The Avengers.
Name: Ron Swanson
Qualifications: Ron Swanson
Hands down, the Leslie-Ron relationship is the best platonic friendship ever depicted on TV. It’s precious and special and so very aspirational.
I was so excited to find out that Lagavulin isn't a fictional liquor. It's actually a very nice bottle of scotch that runs for about $100 here in TN.....
Andrew Glass A true man's glass.
Worth every penny, believe me.
Wait what
I call it campfire whisky. So much smoke. Reminds me of campfires man. Such a nice whisky!
When I moved back to the Philippines from India, I bought myself a bottle of Lagavulin 16 for about $82 and some change. Haven't had it yet. Saving it for a special occasion.
I just shed a tear because I realized something after all these years...the scene where he's introducing himself to his new Park Rangers circles back to when he used to be the troop leader for the Pawnee Rangers. God i love this show
God, I love her. Her character is too good to be true but still inspirational.
It just hit me that in all the times I have binged watched this show (6 times and counting), I have subconsciously left the final episode unwatched. And to be honest, I believe I may forever leave it unwatched that way it continues on in my sleep-deprived mind.
I have done the same thing with scrubs. Rewatches the series multiple times but never watched the last episode of season 8. I just dont want it to end.
Community is too emotional for me. I always get to season six and when I reach the end, I don't want it to.
Everything about these 5 minutes of P&R is absolute perfection.
"I still remember how to forge your signature" The expression on Ron's face is priceless
i like that Ron's son isn't smiling like his step sisters, very swanson like
Half sisters....just sisters...Diane and Ron were married for more than 10 years at this point
@@letimoore the kids will all feel like there's no sibling distinction, but the point was just highlighting how the swanson genetics makes his son a lot like his dad.
His mustache is due any day now
Only Ron could carry a new company through a pandemic.
Every episode of season 7 makes me cry. I can't help it. The friendships written in this show are so touching, and it's a beautiful journey seeing the way these characters have come to care for each other. This show makes me feel better about the world and more optimistic for the future.
I love the way Leslie just says "You wanna run it?". It just feels like the perfectly fitting period to Ron's story.
" i still know how to forge your signature" lol
The final episode is one of those series finale gems that fit the show perfectly.
1:32 Ron’s son has such a huge smile I’m not sure if he’s a Swanson or not
Such a beautiful send off to one of the greatest characters to ever appear on television. It’s just a shame this clip cuts off the end with him in his canoe.
Makes me cry every time.
Christopher Thiry Don't get emotional it will make you look like an idiot.. Ron Swanson
The best "end" for Ron that could have happened...loved, love, and will always love this show!
I think this is the most human segment of anything I’ve watched. Make all the money you want,accomplish everything you want but at the end the only way to find true happiness is having peace
this finale was honestly one of the best series finales of all time. nothing frustrating about it.
This just reminds me of how much I miss seeing these actors every week.
We were lucky to have them perform for us.
They left the best part out, I love it when he gets on the canoe and smiles as he paddles away
this little story line at the end of parks and rec is just the best... its the very fitting and peaceful, fullfilling ending to the character arc of such a unique guy.
it somewhat makes me teary-eyed
Sent this to my friend who manages people. She said they’re being incompetent. Every boss should essentially say this little speech. Everyone should have it as part of their life goals.
One of the best examples of friendship and just being plain nice on TV ever.
Ron was a fantastically written character. Loved his happy ending.
I always come to this clip on youtube when tears are due and my heart just needs a push over the edge to cry it out.
Right in the feels, no matter how many times I watch it
Ronald Ulysses Swanson hahaha 😂😂
End of speach....just awesome like this guy plays Ron sooo good no other actor could do it
I think he has always been my fav just off how funny his demeanor was. Recently i come to appreciate how smart his lifestyle was. That and a few other things have encouraged my goals to change from owning a house to owning land.
I’m so happy everything worked out perfectly for Ron
"as for qualifications, you're Ron Swanson." that actually is a great line for some reason
Their friendship is one of the rarest. Weird. But still pure ❤😭
Michael shur just makes perfect final episodes.
When you watch the end of a michael shur's show, you just feel fullfilled and perfectly at piece with the story.
Waiting to watch brooklyn 99's finale next year.
"Cause I'm not looking for any new friends"....because he has his best friend right next to him!
Ron’s brother was so emotional
he really came unglued didn't he?
That speech, that speech brought tears to my eyes.
I've never watched Parks and Rec, but I am totally smitten with Ron Swanson and can't stop watching clips of him.
" though, hopefully not too fine as i'm not looking for any new friends " ahh love the detail.
character development of saying his full name, having full trust in Leslie but still the same ol' Ron don't get chummy Swanson
Yo. How did they know there would be a fiscal crisis in 2022?
Probably the most touching bit of the whole show in my humble opinion.
This show is a rare example of perfection. I love every character and have a deep connection with all of them.. end of comment.
