It’s been two years since Parks and Recreation ended but fans still can’t get enough of the hilarious show, written by Amy Poehler herself.

It’s been two years since Parks and Recreation ended but fans still can’t get enough of the hilarious show, written by Amy Poehler herself. The most likeable thing about the show however was the relationship between the lead character Leslie Knope (played by Poehler) and her boss Ron Swanson (played by Nick Offerman.)

Turns out, the two actors are getting together to do a game show. Deadline reports that NBC has created The Handmade Project, an unscripted reality show that will star Poehler and Offerman as the hosts of the show. According to Harper’s Bazaar, the competition show will be a six-episode series, with Poehler and Offerman serving as judges that will analyze handmade crafts and artisanship of eight different contestants.

“I’m thrilled to be celebrating artists who make things by hand, and I’m looking forward to finally conquering my fear of paper mache,” Poehler said in a statement. Offerman was excited about working with Poehler again: “People who make things are my favorite kind of folk. Practical, clever and terrific in a pinch. That makes me tickled pink to have a front row seat at this prodigious display of talent, and admiring and cheering on an amazing crop of American makers. Plus, Amy and I have a strong tradition of tomfoolery so let’s see if we don’t have some good fun.”
