In 2008, Daniels was honored with the Austin Film Festival's award for Outstanding Television Writer. The following year, he co-created Parks and Recreation, which premiered in 2009. Despite a modest start, the series gradually built a loyal fan base and critical recognition. From 2009 to 2013, Daniels divided his time between The Office and Parks and Recreation. After The Office concluded its nine-season run in 2013, he focused more fully on Parks and Recreation, which concluded in 2015 after seven seasons.
In 2011, Daniels entered into a production agreement with Universal Television to develop new content. One of his projects the following year was adapting the British comedy Friday Night Dinner for American audiences. In 2013, he also co-produced a TV movie titled Untitled Greg Daniels & Robert Padnick.
