Watch a sneak peek of the 'Parks and Recreation' star's new movie From the legalization of same-sex marriage in several states to the Sochi Olympics backlash to Michael Sam
publicly coming out ahead of the NFL Draft, the times are finally a changin’ when it comes to gay rights in America. Now, a new comedy from a few _Parks and Recreation _veterans seeks to
tastefully take advantage of the changing tides with a few laughs at the box office this winter. Nick Offerman and More of the 50 Funniest People Now _Date and Switch_ (in theaters today)
follows best friends Michael and Matty, two virgins who make a pact to help each other get laid before Senior Prom. But their mission takes an unexpected turn when Michael announces that
he’s gay. In the clip above, watch as he attempts to satisfy his curiosities on the internet, only to be interrupted by his mild-mannered father Terry (played with deadpan schtick by _Parks_
funnyman Nick Offerman). “Is there anything you’d like to talk to me about?” Offerman says, doing his very best to soothe a distressed boy. “There’s nothing wrong with what you’re doing
right now,” he continues in a neutral tone eerily reminiscent of his celebrated_ Parks and Rec _character Ron Swanson. “It’s a very natural urge at your age – a curiosity.” TRENDING STORIES

Carvell, _Parks _was put on hiatus last fall, much to the dismay of fans. And just last month, the show bid farewell to Rob Lowe and Rashida Jones, two beloved characters each with at least
75 episodes under their belts.
