Mark Special Agent Burt Macklin down as an affirmative for the Parks and Recreation revival. (Or at least Andy Dwyer.)

Last month, Amy Poehler (aka Leslie Knope) and Nick Offerman (aka Ron Swanson) both said that they'd up for returning to Pawnee for another season of everyone's favourite small-town political sitcom.

It seemed like the major stumbling block would be Chris Pratt, since he's now a ginormous Hollywood movie star with Marvel and Jurassic World sequels lined up years in advance. But it turns out that even uber-busy Chris is up for a Parks and Rec revival!

"As long as I'm in town, yah, I'll do it," he told E! News this week. "It films like 10 minutes from my house so that would be dope. I miss Andy too. I would love it. I know I would do it."

Asked where Andy would be today, Pratt joked: "I think [Andy] becomes a weatherman. He would be a good weatherman. He would have no idea what he's even saying!"

As if the thought of a Parks and Rec revival isn't enough to get sitcom fans excited, Tina Fey recently pitched turning it into a crossover with her 30 Rock character Liz Lemon.

"Amy's willing to do a Parks and Rec reboot," she said. "Maybe we should just do a Liz Lemon, Leslie Knope spin-off."

Let's make this crossover happen, Amy and Tina! It's just too bad Lil' Sebastian won't be around to see it…
