Will Arnett, the man who played one of the funniest characters of all time in G.O.B. Bluth, is going to join NBC’s not-quite-a-hit-yet sitcom ‘Parks and Rec’ according to the network. (Via Warming Glow)

An NBC spokesperson confirms that Arnett will guest star opposite real-life wife, Amy Poehler, on her creatively-resurgent comedy in early 2010. He’ll play a possible suitor for Poehler’s character, Leslie.

Incidentally, Arnett appears in the same episode that marks the arrival of Justin Theroux, who also happens to be playing a love interest for Leslie. You know what I’m smelling now?

Whores? Cocaine? MAAAAAAAGIC? (Correct answer: humor, apparently.) Also, I think it’s safe to say that we can sniff out a ratings bump for the secretly hilarious P&R. I believe it to be a secret anyway, since I don’t discuss the funny nature of the show with many people; it’s been a hell of a lot better in the second season and has definitely shown enough promise to lock in a spot on my DVR.

Although that’s not really saying anything.
