    While she was hilarious on Parks & Rec, she's doing INCREDIBLE dramatic work on Good Girls! I'm so happy the show got picked up for a 3rd season.

    I think Retta is gorgeous, smart and hilarious! She owned every Parks and Rec scene she was in. Even the best outtakes on the DVD are her's. I need to binge her new show. It's probably awesome.
