COULD RAISE MONEY

In a statement, Executive producer Michael Schur said that they were searching for ways to help. He added that they felt bringing the casts of "Parks and Recreation" back for a night could raise some cash.

It's been no mystery that the show's casts have been open to the possibility of a reboot or some likeness thereof.

THE CAST WAS EXCITED

According to Michael, everybody in the cast was eager to participate in the project. He sent them an email, and they all got back to him right away.

Ever since the series finale, a lot of fans have been waiting to see the fictional residents of Pawnee, Indiana, come back to their screens. It's been no mystery that the show's casts have been open to the possibility of a reboot or some likeness thereof.

A year ago, Amy said in an interview with Entertainment Weekly that she was prepared to put on her Leslie Knope suit at any moment. She explained that "if there was an actual thing happening, you'd probably be able to pry it out of me pretty fast."

Amy and Nick also told Ellen DeGeneres last year that they would jump at the opportunity for a reboot, but only if Beyoncé joined the cast, according to PEOPLE.

"Parks and Recreation" ran for seven seasons. The series followed the regular lives of government laborers in the small American town of Pawnee, Indiana, as reported by Metro.
