Jean-Ralphio is in the house!

Ben Schwartz, who currently stars on Showtime's House of Lies, will reprise his role as the self-proclaimed ladies' man on the upcoming season of Parks and Recreation, TVGuide.com has learned.

Details on Jean-Ralphio's return are being kept under wraps, but based on what Aziz Ansari told us about Tom starting a new business, we're hoping the duo is teaming up for Entertainment 720 2.0. "That one will go a little bit better because he learned so much from the mistakes that he made with Entertainment 720, of which there were many," Ansari says of the new business.

Schwartz, whose Parks character last made a brief appearance in the Season 4 finale, will return for at least one Season 5 episode, tentatively scheduled to air Thursday, Nov. 1.

Parks and Recreation returns Thursday, Sept. 20 at 9:30/8:30c on NBC.
