Parks and Recreation creators land show about struggling amusement park

The show was created by Mike Schur and Matt Hubbard - who have worked on the likes of 30 Rock and Brooklyn Nine-Nine

It feels like it's been a long while since we bid adieu to Parks and Recreation, one of the most fiercely beloved television comedies of recent years; it did give us Chris Pratt, after all.

NBC has inevitably been on the search for a follow-up hit, and it looks as if the same team may be the ones to deliver it; Variety reports the network has picked up a new comedy by Mike Schur and Matt Hubbard for a put pilot commitment.

Action Land will follow the grand misadventures of employees working at a struggling amusement park in Arizona; a set-up which seems to offer a similarly broad, mundane setting perfect for the kind of wild and clashing personalities that made Parks and Recreation such a hit.

Hubbard will write the single-cam, 30-minute pilot, as well as act as executive producer with Schur and David Miner; Hubbard, Schur, and Miner all worked together on Parks and Recreation, which Schur originally created. Hubbard was also a longtime writer/producer on 30 Rock, winning a writing Emmy for the show in 2009.

Schur and Hubbard had previously attempted to launch an interracial family comedy for NBC, which would have starred 30 Rock's Jack McBrayer, though the project never ended up going to series. Schur - who also created Fox's Brooklyn Nine-Nine - did, however, also land an NBC pilot commitment for his project Landlords.
