11 Reasons Jerry Gergich From 'Parks And Rec' Is A Wonderful Human, Don't @ Me

YouTube

Everyone always rips on Jerry Gergich, the infamous character from "Parks and Rec." Or is it Gary Gergich? Jarry Gergich? It doesn't really matter. But, he's actually one of the best characters if you really think about it. He's just a happy person (he might be a little too happy) but he's happy and cares about all his coworkers, even when they aren't the nicest to him.

He always tries his best.

You can trust him with anything.

He's hard working and reliable, which is all anyone really wants.

Not everyone knows how wonderful Larry is.
