Parks and Recreation: Camping / Season: 3 / Episode: 8 (2011)

Leslie consults her 'dream journal' in an attempt to find a great idea for the next project for the Parks Department. She reads an entry to Ann from the journal about a recent dream saying, "I married ALF and we're pretty happy."

Leslie has finally come up with some ideas for the next big Parks Department event. One of her ideas is a City-wide yard sale, which she says will be part auction, part 'Antiques Roadshow'.

Tom is relaxing in his luxurious tent, furnished by 'Sky Mall', when Ron enters the tent, asking how long he's been running power from his (Ron) car battery to the tent. Tom tells him 10 hours, just as the power goes out. Tom exclaims, "No! I was Tivo-ing 'Cupcake Wars'!".

Tom makes a sarcastic comment after Ben offers an idea for the Parks Department's next big project. Tom tells Ben, "Great idea! Thanks 'White Urkel'."

At the camp fire, Tom tells Leslie that rather than sit around coming up with new ideas for the Parks Department, he'd rather go to his tent and watch 'NCIS: Los Angeles'.

Ben tells Tom he wants to bounce ideas off of each other about the Parks Department's next big project. Tom's response is, "How 'bout I bounce over to my dog couch and watch Season 6 of 'Top Chef'?".

Tom refers to his luxury, electronics-filled tent "The Thunderdome" after the arena from this film.

After leaving the campground, the group ends up in a Bed & Breakfast, where Leslie is in her room, listening to 'Steal My Sunshine' and trying to come up with her next big idea for the Parks Department.

The owner of the B&B plays this song on the harpsichord at the end of the episode.
