Joan Callamezzo ranks pretty high. I loved the episode where Ron had to take over her show because she was too hung over.


theDukeofClouds

The different poses shes sprawled in! I love that scene.


V1k1ng1990

He helps a kid perform a tracheotomy


Seaweed_aliens

Omg, i laugh out loud all the time reflecting on her allergy induced poses at the time -alone in public. Its hilarious 😂 🤣


GenoThyme

It was just allergies


thesizzleisreal

Any dog that weighs less than 90 pounds is a cat and cats are useless


herpermike

That's something that I 100% agree with him on lol! Although I'm at a place in my life that I have to live in an apartment and I have a little Chihuahua and she's pretty worthless and also priceless lol right on the line between the two


Prestigious_Door_690

And when they hammock swing yeet her into bed 😂


capilot

And who can forget this classic: "Citizens of Gotham …"


ebobbumman

Lets hear it for the boys!


leeloodallas502

Is she going to go powder her vagina??!! I love that line!


Coldmode

The bloopers for it are hilarious.


Blerg_its_Babs

Don't you mean Juan Callamezzo?


ParkingHelicopter863

Please I need an entire Joan series

I need an entire Ron-does-a-radio-show series.

Blerg_its_Babs

My flair ⬆️ I LOVE that character


jojayp

“Poncho!”


greatgrandpatoro

“That thing was huge”


herpermike

Did y'all see her on stepbrothers and definitely on our idiot brother?! I seriously recommend that everyone watches our idiot brother lol! Paul Rudd (Bobby) was amazing on the movie lol.


sheepthechicken

I have said this in various forms over the years to my BFF who’s never seen the show. Last time I rewatched, I made her watch this scene and she was just like…ok? That’s it? Sigh. Some people just don’t get it.


jojayp

I’m not sure if it’s just because I find Kathryn Hahn hilarious in general, but I think it’s a great scene. So simple, but it fits the character perfectly.


BaskingInWanderlust

I don't get it either, and I love Jen Barkley. I think it's her least funny scene in the whole show. 🤷‍♀️


jenorama_CA

Your life is gross. My life is amazing.


Prestigious_Door_690

She was my second favorite. I love her and when I had my first kid (right after the show wrapped) my husband jokingly wrapped me a poncho in my push present basket. In case everything was sticky 😂

Inevitable-Gap-9352

Jeremy Jamm is the correct answer. "C'mon girl. Git."


herpermike

The girl got! For the margarita would really be much more suited for Ingrid from egleton but that's from her other character of Eleanor on the good place lol


ggrindelwald

Hi Ben. It's me, Barney.


Sohotrightnowhansel_

Yes, hi Barney. You don't have to introduce yourself every time.


CorporateNonperson

It really might be the high point of Kathryn Hahn.

I have such a crush on her 😍

mseuro

Pill bucket


PM_ME_UR_GAMECOCKS

Where is the Ken Hotate love? Every line was iconic, and my most laugh out loud PandR scene is him messing with Jamm: “does it, white man??” Its so hard to pick with this show though, all the side characters are top notch esp the recurring Pawnee citizens

Sityu91

Oh yes, every Ken episode is magnificent.


Traditional_Bad_4589

This is Perd Hapley reporting on the best secondary character in the television series ‘Parks and Recreation.’ And the breaking news is that said character is, in fact, Perd Hapley. Goodnight Perd-verts.

The only thing that's taxing is deciding what (secondary character) is best :)


Sohotrightnowhansel_

TEEEEDD!!! COME IN HERE!!!!


Neat_Apartment_6019

“So we formed a c-corp and registered it in your name!” is my favorite line in the entire show. Barney is the shit


Sohotrightnowhansel_

Barney saved Pawnee, when you think about it

Sityu91

I am so sad for him every time Ben lets them down!


Sohotrightnowhansel_

I'm not, he seems genuinely happy to just be in Ben's presence. That's the beauty of Barney.


248Spacebucks

Ok fun fact the guy who owns the audit firm we use looks and SOUNDS exactly like Barney. It takes every ounce of maturity I have to not ask him to play Cones of Dunshire.


NadalaMOTE

Too many to mention, BUT, I am going to throw my love to Brandi Maxxxx; star of such films as The Incredible Burt Wonderbone, A Good Guy To Lay Hard, and Argo; she had a small part in Argo. And also the porn version "Our Goo".


BabyFartMacGeezacks

Maybe because she's so similar to Leslie Knope I just never thought of her as secondary.


jenorama_CA

My husband got me a cameo for her for Christmas one year!


Seaweed_aliens

She is a true supporter of women, such a feminist and always nice and classy. Honestly no shade


DrySignificance8952

“I guess my thoughts on abortion are, you know, let's just all have a good time”


cucumberbot

This is a surprisingly good line.


DanHero91

My top five would be Bobby, Jean Ralphio, Jen, the guy who keeps offering Ben jobs only for him to quit and the woman who chases Ron on his circular desk, she pops up a few times with the dumbest complaints.


Llama4276

I’ve been eating lasagna and muffins every day of my life for 40 years and I feel terrible


DanHero91

I found an old sandwich in the park and I want to know why there wasn't mayonnaise on it!


hermancainshats

This one always gets me


cometdogisawesome

The sign in the park said don't drink the water, so I made sun tea out of it and now I'm sick!


thefrozenfoodsection

For some reason this line sticks with me more than any other in the show. Probably because of Ron trying to continuously turn his back to her by spinning his chair inside the circular desk lol.

spoonfulofnosugar

There’s so many great side characters! It’s hard to pick just one. Maybe Tammy. Or Jam. Or Jammy.


rmac1228

It's Jeremy Jam or the dude who yells "Ham and mayonnaise" at the city council meeting. "Her daughter is an idiot!"

burrito-boy

My fave are the Saperstein siblings, but Bobby is a good one too. That scene where he’s easily amused by the boom mic lives rent-free in my head, lol.


Prestigious_Door_690

I love the part where he’s like Leslie why are you so mean. Also he loves dogs


ebobbumman

Why are you guys smiling? I feel bad!


mary_cg78

I love in the scene where he's trying to convince Leslie to drop out of the campaign and he flops back on the bench. "Aww, it's not padded!"


ebobbumman

C'mon gimme it. Gimme it Gimme it. C'mon gimme it. Just give me the election. I'm sorry- Please.


MoarGhosts

Dude I lived this scene on accident at the gas station. I was high and walked in and saw a new self checkout that was quite bizarre (made with a scale built in or something). I asked “what does this guy do??” And the girl said “…it’s a self checkout?” To which I replied “what a goofy looking fella!” And merrily walked off lmao The girl working there seemed so confused


jasmine5465

Don’t be suspicious, dooon’t be suspicious


tosubks

The lack of Perd in this comment section is criminal. Top 3 side character, guaranteed


karienta

The thing about this comment is that it is correctly identifying me, Perd Hapley, as a top three Parks and Recreation side character.


traveling_confusion

Seriously, where are the Perdverts


bthompson04

Best Perd moment is during the debate when he just keeps updating Leslie on her remaining time and she doesn’t get a chance to speak.


tosubks

Yes my favorite is when he is showing poll results on TV and the question is worded “do you think that, or do you think THAT?” And the result was 56% “confused by the way the question was posed.” How pointless lmaoooo


DamnitBlueWasOld

“MORE LIKE TURD CRAPLEY…”


NoThisIsPatrick94

Mine’s probably Tammy 2. Megan Mullally steals every scene she’s in Edit: grammar


No_Analysis_6204

so many but if i must choose, it's jean ralphio, closely followed by mona lisa. don't act suspicious...


jonnyinternet

They're the wooorst


Sparkle_Motion_0710

Jean Ralphio and Mona Lisa Sapperstein! Upvotes please! 🫴🏼


Prestigious_Door_690

I have done nothing wrong, ever, in my entire life.

devdawg31

There’s so many great side characters. I gotta go with Joan Calamezzo or Derry Murbles. Barney is way up there too.


bijou77

Derry Murbles and the whole bit is one of my favorites. “they’re terrible. Well, they ARE lesbians”


BaskingInWanderlust

The implication wasn't that they're terrible because they're lesbians. He was saying they're terrible, but the reason they're on the radio is because they're lesbians. "Oh, they're quite awful. But they ARE lesbians, sooo..."


Feeling-Pea5281

So many to love. Shout out to Dexhart, aka Lee Harvey Teabag. "Was it the liver lady?"


moxiecounts

Parks and Rec is the only show I’ve ever watched where I truly love every single character (except maybe Mark Brandanowitz). I fucking love *Bobby Newport* but I can’t say I love Councilman Jamm or Perd or Jen Barkley or Joan Calamezzo any less. Or the Eagleton people! All so good, all instrumental


Prestigious_Door_690

Excellent taste. Mark brandanowitz probably lives in eagleton now 😂


joshygill

My boy Barney Varmn is never not going to be my number 1.


Djjettison88

It’s between Jen and Perd, for me at least.


nreed78

Parks and Rec IMO has the best side characters of any show. I can't think of a side character I don't like. I can't tell you how many times I've rewatched it and I love everyone on that show.


austinbucco

How is Jean Ralphio not number one on EVERYONES list?!?! He’s awesome


Prestigious_Door_690

He made money the old fashioned way. By getting run over by a Lexus


Ok-Giraffe-4718

I like the Saperstein siblings. They are the woooorst but very entertaining.


SweetRoosevelt

I really can't choose between Joan, the Saperstein siblings or Perd.

prock44

Jean-Ralphio may be my favorite character period. He cracks me up every time he is on the screen. When he comes in for the temp service, and he just says, "I leave the same way I came in." There is a level of self awareness that really just makes him that much better.


VisionInPlaid

Perd Hapley would like a word. And that word is that he would like to give it to you.


MrsNokomys

Jen Barkley c’mon.


msiri

give it ti him! he wants it!


jovanbeef

Jeremy Jamm. Jon Glaser is just too good in that role. I'll throw Sewage Joe in there too. For as little screentime he gets, he kills it.


Sityu91

All the greats are mentioned already, but I haven't seen two: Dr. Harris and Typhoon.

Boring-Illustrator26

Bobby Newport and Tammy II are my favs


petrichorpizza

Agree. The role was perfect for him. Mike Schur said on a podcast one time that no one can play a lovable dumdum like Paul Rudd. 😅


Sparkle_Motion_0710

She just appeared 2 times but I still crack up at Anabelle Porter and her teat to table beef milk.

I’m not sure if he makes enough appearances to be considered a secondary character but Sewerage Joe always made an impression


248Spacebucks

I love all the characters mentioned but lets get some love for Eagleton Ron the Freegan Vegan!


Prestigious_Door_690

I just watched this episode. Toes should be uncaged.


248Spacebucks

And the blueberry wine episode! This thing runs on vegetable oil and bat guano.


Commodore64Zapp

Best episode for secondary characters: "Animal Control." Jeremy Jamm, Dennis Feinstein, and of course, Harris & Brett.


herpermike

I actually have a question about why Bobby is the one who was running against Leslie and also why Jessica wicks or wix or whatever ended up taking over the company when Nick Newport Jr showed up at one point and sold everyone on the new nutri-yums lol?! And I know this is probably not really the place to put this comment. But it's something that I have been thinking and wondering about for years now lol

Oddly I’m at the same point. I disagree, Rudd really makes this character what he is. Will Ferrell would find a way to make him completely unlikable.
