As if we needed another reason to be excited for Parks and Recreation Season 6...

The Hollywood Reporter confirms that Henry Winkler will guest star on the opening episode of this NBC sitcom, coming on board in the perfect role of Jean-Ralphio's father. Like his son, played by Ben Schwartz, the character will have the potential to recur throughout the season.

Parks and Recreation will return on Thursday, September 28, with a double feature to kick off the new season.

Kristen Bell, meanwhile, has also been booked for at least one episode. She will appear as a rival Congresswoman to Leslie Knope.

Zach: It was nice meeting you.
Tom: No, Zach. I don't text her it was nice meeting you. I wait eight weeks and I text her, "what's crackin'?"

Ron: Who the hell is 'Fwarp'?
April: I don't know. I couldn't really hear him. It sounded like his name was Fwarp.
Ron: Get his number?
