Krysta Rodriguez (Ana from Smash) looks so much like Aubrey Plaza (April from Parks and Recreation) and I thought I was super later to the party on pointing this out but no one seems as passionately concerned as I do.
Here are pictures of each of them folded into themselves for proof.
Roughing It
On Duck Dynasty: Duck launched its third season with “Duck Season Eve,” where the men carry on their tradition of camping the night before. This means becoming one with nature for most of the Robertson men, but for Willie, it involves a tricked-out RV with all the comforts of home. The other guys are angry, yet slightly tantalized by the sound of gourmet pasta and comfortable sleeping quarters.
On Parks and Recreation: ”Camping” also features the Pawnee gang embracing the great outdoors, except Tom Haverford does it in the comfort of an enormous tent filled with everything the SkyMall catalogue has to offer. DJ Roomba brings the party, but Ron Swanson is not amused.

Crash and Burn
On Duck Dynasty: ”Duck Be a Lady” also has a plotline where the coffee maker in the warehouse broke, and so the guys decide to try out a fancy coffee shop. They were reluctant at first, but eventually got hyped up on caffeine and crashed hard.
On Parks and Recreation: There are all kinds of weird establishments in Pawnee, but the confusion that the coffee place gives Jase and Jep was not unlike Leslie and Andy’s reaction to the Video Dome in “Bailout”, or Ron’s fascination of the hippies in “Soulmates” or disgust of Tom’s bachelor party locale in “Two Parties.” The Parks crew also has a habit of overdoing it; like Leslie binging on Nutri-Yum bars in “Telethon” and everyone after drinking Snake Juice in “The Fight.”
