"Parks And Recreation" Season 7 release date should be somewhere early in 2015. Fans are suffering from a bittersweet excitment, anticipating the new season, but sad it will be the last. Here is the roundup of everything currently going on in the show. 

Today the cast and crew was spotted around Chicago. According to the Illinois Film Office. Several cast members made the most out of their visit with a few scheduled appearances, with Chris Pratt throwing out the first pitch at Wednesday's Cubs game against the Milwaukee Brewers and Aziz Ansari performing a pop-up show at the Vic.

If you were wondering why Tom wasn't show in the three year time jump at the end of season 6, executive producer Michael Schur came right out and admitted to Entertainment Weekly back in April that he specifically didn't want Tom shown in the jump forward.

"When we were discussing who should be in that scene, Tom was pretty quickly ruled out, I'll say that. For various reasons, we thought we should not see Tom in that scene."

The series announced back in August that Natalie Morales will reprise her role as Lucy, Tom's bartending girlfriend from Season 2. So maybe those two will get back together.

In other news, Cones of Dunshire, the overly complex board game featured in "Parks and Recreation" has become a real life game from the same company that made Settlers of Catan (the game Cones of Dunshire was parodying)

Mayfair Games created a loose concept for the game, as Vulture reported last year. While a commercial version of the game isn't headed to stores, Mayfair did flesh out the concept and debut it at gaming convention GenCon, where 33 people paid $100 to participate.

"I don't think that there was a plan to produce an actual game, and whatever cohesiveness there was to the content was almost an afterthought," Alex Yeager of Mayfair told Nuvo, Indianapolis' alt-weekly. "As we've moved forward with our planning for this charity event, we've come to regret that a little bit!"Scott and Aziz Ansari, who plays Tom Haverford on the NBC comedy, even made an introductory video for the event.

"Parks and Recreation" season 7 will consist of only 13 episodes, so NBC is holding the show for a midseason premiere. While the network has yet to announce an exact release date, season 7 is expected sometime in early 2015. Production for the final season began earlier this month. 

In an interview with TV Line, the show's executive producer Michael Schur commented on a Season 6 plotline that never came to be, in which Ron and Diane scheme to hook Councilman Jamm and Tammy II up.

The premiere episde is titled "2017" , and the second episode is titled "Ron & Jammy" , so expect Megan Mullally will be reprising her role as Tammy 2.  Rachel Dratch (30 Rock, SNL) will guest star on at least one episode. And Chris Pratt's Andy Dwyer will probably be scarce as Chris Pratt is suddenly incredibly busy. Most interestingly the season will stop using  the mockumentary format.
