12 Small Details You Only Notice Rewatching Parks & Recreation

3. Jean-Ralphio's Champagne

Parks and Rec
NBC

While most of the characters in Parks and Rec - even those who only show up for a couple of episodes - grow and develop into better people, Jean-Ralphio remains an eternal doofus. Tom's business partner across a whole bunch of ill-fated ventures, he's always been his own worst enemy, cosying up to his father in order to continue his flashy lifestyle and avoid all the responsibilities (and crimes) he's racked up.

However, during the flash-forward in the very final episode, it's revealed that the character (who was once technically hoooomeless) has finally put his name to something he can be proud of: his own champagne. It's difficult to make out, but the brand can be seen on the label of the bottle handed out to Craig and his husband.

Even better, this same Easter egg actually showed up in an entirely different show, with an advert for Jean-Ralphio's brand appearing in a magazine in The Good Place. Do the shows exist in the same universe? One can only hope.
