Break out the Bobby Bars,TV Fanatics!

Entertainment Weekly has confirmed that Paul Rudd has booked a two-episode appearance on Parks and Recreation Season 7.

He will reprise his role on the beloved sitcom of Bobby Newport, the spoiled son of a candy magnate who was defeated by Leslie Knope in the show’s recent City Council election storyline.

According to EW, Ben will bring Bobby in to possibly fill a position in the government.

“He’s the world’s nicest human being—and the funniest,” says Parks executive producer Michael Schur of Rudd. “We made a list of all the people that we wanted to have back and he was high on the list, so we managed to snag him.”

Parks and Recreation jumped ahead three years on the Season 6 finale and is gearing up for its final 13 episodes.

Other familiar faces set to return include: Rob Lowe, Rashida Jones, Jon Hamm, Megan Mullally, and Natalie Morales.
