Amy Poehler has confirmed that she is ready to do more Parks and Recreation “anytime”.

“I am technically available,” she told Variety on Monday at a Smart Girls’ 10th-anniversary dinner. “I have like six of Leslie’s blazers in my closet, so anytime.”

The only thing holding back a new season or some kind of one-off special is the huge success of The Good Place for Parks and Rec co-creator Mike Schur.

“Our king is busy doing his highly successful show, The Good Place,” Poehler continued. “We really can’t jump without Mike. So when Mike is good and ready, I’m sure we’ll show up like good soldiers.”

With Poehler on board, the chances of new Parks and Rec look pretty good. The same can’t be said for another beloved sitcom, The Office, as its lead actor (Steve Carell) remains unconvinced that a reunion is a good idea, though other cast members have expressed interest in a return.

Parks and Recreation ran from 2009 to 2015 on NBC, earning Poehler a Golden Globe in 2014.

Nick Offerman, Rashida Jones, Adam Scott, Aziz Ansari, Rob Lowe, Retta, Jim O’Heir and Chris Pratt all co-starred, with guest stars including Jon Hamm, Christie Brinkley, New Jersey Sen. Cory Booker, Michelle Obama, and Joe Biden.
