'Parks and Recreation' Cast Sings Farewell With 'Bye, Bye Little Sebastian' on 'Late Night' (Video)

What better way to say goodbye to NBC comedy “Parks and Recreation” than with a big musical tribute to Pawnee’s favorite miniature horse?

Chris Pratt and an acoustic guitar led the entire cast in a rousing live performance of “Bye, Bye Little Sebastian” Tuesday on Seth Meyers‘ late-night talk show. The hysterically-funny-though-low-rated sitcom took its final bow on the same broadcast channel hours before the “Late Night” tribute aired.

Everyone was there and singing with cigarette lighters up in the air — though two cast members, Aubrey Plaza and the much older Jim O’Heir, were busy grossly making out most of the time. O’Heir even appears to undo Plaza’s blouse — such is her offbeat humor.

Their castmates loved it, as did the Studio 8G audience, which was treated to some “Parks” finale spoilers whether they liked it or not during the afternoon taping.

'Parks and Recreation' Finale: A Look at Leslie Knope's Political Record (Photos)

Leslie Knope got her start in politics as the deputy director of the Pawnee Parks & Recreation Department, serving under the vehemently anti-government Ron Swanson.
NBC
Her first major undertaking was trying to fill a dangerous hole in Pawnee, Indiana, after Andy Dwyer (Chris Pratt) had fallen into the pit and broke his legs.
NBC
She was always trying to do good in her community. In Season 3, for instance, she brought a famous (for Pawnee) miniature horse to the Harvest Festival, hoping it would help her raise money for the town.
NBC
Knope eventually ran for city councilor, running on a pro-government platform, as she believes her function as a government employee is to serve the people.
NBC
She was elected city councilor on Season 4 by 21 votes, and her new mission was to make Pawnee healthier.
NBC
Among her proposals was a soda tax, which she thought would help lower her town's obesity rate.
NBC
Despite her own feelings toward her hometown's arch-rival, Leslie saved Eagleton from bankruptcy by merging the two towns together.
NBC
She was also was a big fan of being prepared, as exhibited when she led her town through an emergency preparedness drill (launched, of course, by her arch-rival Jeremy Jamm).
NBC
Throughout, she of course always stayed committed to cleaning up the parks.
NBC
But the citizens didn't like her changes and in Season 5 she was voted out of office in a recall election. She would then rejoin her old friends in the Parks Department.
NBC
But Knope was recruited by the federal government to serve a greater purpose -- to become deputy director of the Midwestern branch of the National Parks Service.
NBC
Knope then set her mind on a new goal: to bring a national park to her beloved town of Pawnee, Indiana.
NBC
But what's next for the hopelessly optomistic politician? How will it all end? She did always hope to become the first female president of the United States.
