Biden to appear on 'Parks and Recreation'

Vice President Biden is ready for his close-up.

Biden, re-elected Tuesday, makes a cameo appearance on the Nov. 15 episode of NBC's Parks and Recreation, a spot filmed back July.

Entertainment Weekly reports that Biden's scene "occurs at the beginning of the episode, in which former congressional campaign manager Ben Wyatt (Adam Scott) takes fiancee/city Councilwoman Leslie Knope (Amy Poehler) to the White House to meet America's No. 2, who has long been her No. 1 crush. (As Leslie once noted, her ideal man has 'the brains of George Clooney and the body of Joe Biden.')"

More from EW:

"Parks scored camera time with Biden in July when the show traveled to Washington, D.C. to film its season 5 premiere, which featured appearances by Senators Barbara Boxer, Olympia Snowe, and John McCain. How big of a casting coup was Biden for NBC's small-town government comedy?

"'Given that Eleanor Roosevelt and Bella Abzug are no longer with us, this is probably no. 1,' quips executive producer Michael Schur."
