Live from Pawnee: A Parks and Recreation Fan Rewatch Podcast

Pawnee Spotlight: Cooper Thornton

Episode Summary

Talk about a fascinating guy who's been in a TON of stuff! You can see his efforts in movies such as Sully, Fracture, and Flightplan, as well as some of our favorite shows such as NCIS, Weeds, Justified, My Name Is Earl, Curb Your Enthusiasm, The Office, House, Arrested Development, Scrubs, and of course Parks and Recreation as the delightfully curmudgeony Dr. Harris! Join us this week for a very special, LONG OVERDUE Pawnee Spotlight episode featuring Cooper Thornton! (NOTE: Constantine and Harvey ... you know what you did. You'll both be parking in Lot F for the foreseeable future.)

Episode Notes

Mark and Allen were fortunate enough to grab some talk time with Cooper in the fall of 2022, and wow - this guy has done some amazing stuff. Funny, interesting to talk to, and very humble, this interview was a delight.

 Join us as the guys as they talk with Cooper about his various experience in Hollywood television and movies, his early career, and , of course, his experience with all but one of the main Parks and Recreation cast (can you guess which one?), the post-COVID casting process, and the special career advice he received from the one and only Clint Eastwood. This was a super fun, LONG overdue Pawnee Spotlight from one of our favorite guests. We hope you all like it as much as we did! Enjoy.
