ben wyatt charming the accountants for 9 minutes 48 seconds | Parks and Recreation | Comedy Bites

[@matanorland1]

One of the real heroes here is Frank. Once he saw Ben was actually good he completely changed his mind about him. Zero ego. What a trooper.

[@zackspiker_]

That’s a great point.

[@venukrithish007]

Yeah even during the calzone party his face lit up

[@Robert-hz9bj]

Makes sense though. Ben wasn't just regular "good." He was "solve a problem in 24 hours that stumped an entire team for months" good.

[@telanis9]

@@Robert-hz9bj The thing about ego is that it doesn't make sense. Pride and confidence, sure, but ego is inherently illogical. Being shown up THAT badly would be far worse to someone with a big ego, not better.

[@nijnij3988]

@telanis9 Great point, having a big ego is rarely helpful actually

[@djescobar805]

I always felt bad for the accountants whenever Ben quit

[@fishybrickfilms]

It literally broke my heart every time

[@goodegggreg8189]

@@fishybrickfilmsyeah of course, Barney is such a kind dude.

[@ShinRyojin]

I loved that Ben quickly went along with the lightbulb bit. This was one of the most wholesome arcs in the show.

[@TheSuperSpud]

He’s such a sweetie

[@yervandcherkezyan]

The fact that Barney went ahead and copyrighted the board game under Ben's name says everything about his character as a human being.

The amount of delight Barney gets from Ben’s jokes is rather wholesome.😊 I feel so bad for Barney and the firm that Ben quits all the time.😔

[@thesourpatchkidd579]

You know there's nothing more attractive than seeing a guy being confident and in his element, I'm sure Leslie couldn't keep her hands off Ben when he was an accountant 😂😂man was dripping rizz

[@iamsmarterthanme]

Thank you lol

[@FoolishMortal6121]

Ted, get in here! There's a video about the accountants!

[@Asian-Hawaiian-Orian]

Ben is easily one of the best written characters ever. On top of that, he wasn’t even an original character but was so perfect that we all liked him immediately.

[@thomaskiser3886]

He wasn’t original? There wasn’t t a parks and recreation before though….

[@Asian-Hawaiian-Orian]

@@thomaskiser3886 Sorry I should clarify. He didn't start off with the show in season 1. So he was a late addition, but was still great

Poor Barney. A life with so many ups and downs seems a little stressful. His incredible attitude is amazing though.

tbf ben is like the MC to accountants. i mean a young, good-looking guy who's a genius at the job but is also funny( to them). i read mangas with that exact plot

[@fredoran]

I would happily watch a show about accounting with Ben and barney

[@DelTorres]

And Ted

[@MikeMJPMUNCH]

Seeing these scenes all put together makes me feel so sad for Barney

[@Clown_Wizard]

“Life’s too short, why be an accountant?” I am an accountant. This quote is 💯 🔥 🔥🔥

[@heli0s101]

I studied accounting and finance and did everything I could to not go into accounting. I've never met one happy with their choice of career, and I could never shake the feeling that I wasn't building anything or succeeding at anything - I was just measuring other people's success. Different if you have your own firm or practice, though.

[@Quage8143]

As someone who now works at an accounting firm after finishing law school, I completely agree ​@@heli0s101

[@chriss2122]

​@@heli0s101I get that. I'm an accountant and didn't really feel satisfied until I went and set up my own practice.

[@eenix]

I'm an auditor. It hurts so deep

[@PS-vt2ex]

I don't work in this field, but everyone plays a part in someway in making a company they are in some way a part of successful so in that sense everyone working in a field like accounts helps build something​ so don't feel bad. That said if you hearts not in it, do something you really want to do @@eenix

[@WJen8]

I still feel so bad for Barney, also I want to see Ted once 😂

[@Bazookatone1]

Ted's a skeleton in swivel chair a la psycho.

[@Solkard]

If you turned dogs into people, taught them math, and then how to start a business, it would be that accounting firm.

[@crott195]

If Ben was as confident around cops as he is accountants, he would be unstoppable…

[@tb7667]

🎶 Saturday, at the firm with Ben 🎶 😁

[@krissdev]

I love Barney, so much life energy 🎉

[@StargateMaker]

No small parts only small actors. This guy is an excellent case in point. I think he’s my favorite character on the show. Certainly the most likable.

[@gamerman782]

He's like an excited child around Ben

5:33 I love this scene. Really underrated

andy’s reaction is always the cherry on top of that scene.

[@Yamayamauchiman]

If only every day at work started with "you're late! Pshht just kidding you can do whatever you want :3"

[@vullord666]

5:36 *"I'm just kidding. You can do what you want."* This kills me every time. These guys loved Ben so much and really appreciated having him on 😢.

[@derekbroekhoven5498]

Barney is the best. Always felt bad for him, he deserved so much better

[@AlexLopez-ph8dd]

Just imagine how incredible the firm would have grown if Ben stayed.

Pay, healthcare, calzone parties. Honestly, that accountancy firm seems a good place to work.

[@TheMelloyMan]

It’s so funny being the awkward guy everywhere else but you find a group of people even more awkward and it somehow makes you the most charismatic person in the room

[@edmonkeys3]

Ben is an absolute monster for teasing these guys so many times

[@flala2261]

🤣

[@srinivasangopalan7769]

The best part was April rejecting the potential opportunity at Barney's firm after Ben had done it multiple times all through the previous seasons. Epic writing!

Barney's actor is AMAZING 😂

[@feichenyang6543]

I'm a "value-pack" version of Ben in my real life. I get emotional everytime I see the calzone party and the batman suit scene.

The calzone party was so wholesome... they really appreciated Ted those guys are the best.

[@matthewcs490]

Barney is a little strange and has an imaginary friend named Ted, but he means well and it almost seems like he worships Ben. I love those guys!

[@taescrito9113]

6:52 that was so funny

[@june2420111]

Lol we have a shortage of accountants and I came here to see how they're portrayed in the media.

[@siphillis]

Jokes aside, there's a good argument you should pursue a company that clearly values you like the accounting firm. You may not absolutely love your 9-to-5, but it supports your passions financially and it's clear they would move heaven and earth to accommodate his personal life

[@listens2lennon]

Do we -- do we ever meet Ted??

[@Sumguyinavan_]

These would have been his people if he hadn't met the Parks team. They were written to be perfect for him, his own personal sirens. More stable, productive, happy, accepted, encouraged. Thriving with people who built him up and challenged him with what they couldn't figure out. Would he stagnate or become resentful, or be even happier?

[@nancybunnun]

Barney is one of my fav recurring characters next to the guys from animal control and John Ralphio and his sister Mona Lisa who is the "worst..."
