Our favorite TV bureaucrats may be paying a visit to the nation's capital.
TVLine reports that, should things come together, parts of "Parks and Recreation"'s fifth season could be filmed in D.C.:
Sources confirm to TVLine exclusively that the NBC comedy is looking to shoot scenes on location in D.C. for the premiere and perhaps beyond.
Season 4 ended with one of the show's main characters, Ben Wyatt, played by Adam Scott, leaving Indiana (where the show is set) for a political job in the District.
Ben is the boyfriend of the show's lead character, Leslie Knope, played by Amy Poehler, who may also be coming East, according to TVLine:
Parks‘ leading lady Amy Poehler is also expected to make the trek, presumably so Leslie can help her beau get acclimated to his new city.
Where in D.C. do you think Ben Wyatt would live, if he weren't a fictional character? Sell him on a neighborhood in the comments, or tweet us your thoughts.
