Aziz Ansari is one of the break-out stars of "Parks and Recreation," which returns for a third season Thursday night. He's in Playboy this month for the magazine's 20Q feature. Among the revelations: despite the addition of Robe Lowe and Adam Scott as cast members this season, Ansari is still the best looking. 

"Do Rob Lowe or Adam Scott have nice, well-trimmed beards? F--- no! Of course I'm still the most handsome guy on "Parks."

Critics have been pretty supportive of Ansari and he tells Playboy that he isn't afraid of any backlash. "You can't let what other people think about you get into your head too much," he said. "If it's good, I'll know it. I read some review of the 2010 MTV Movie Awards that said my monologue didn't go over well. And I thought, I was there. I got an applause break after every joke I did. That is the definition of doing well for a comedian."
