Whatnot78 Posted February 7, 2019 Share Posted February 7, 2019 Tough one..but I'd give The Office a slight edge. Especially if you forget their last season. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's why Parks and Rec got the slight edge from me. It never really jumped the shark. 3 minutes ago, Johnny Hammersticks said: You are a thread starting machine!!

RaoulDuke79 Posted February 7, 2019 Share Posted February 7, 2019 I never watched Parks and Rec, so I'm going with the office. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jay_Fixit Posted February 7, 2019 Share Posted February 7, 2019 Both great, but The Office is much greater. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chuck Wagon Posted February 7, 2019 Share Posted February 7, 2019 Office certainly started out better but dragged and trailed off badly once Michael left. Parks & Rec had a terrible first season but I think was more consistently better for the duration of the show. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m not giving it a pass for the other years.  I’m just saying that the 1st 5 seasons of The Office were better than most of Parks & Rec, IMO.  Seasons after weren’t as good but like mentioned by another, it didn’t get bad until Michael left Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LSHMEAB Posted February 7, 2019 Share Posted February 7, 2019 The Office is in a league of it's own. The humor was never in your face which requires so much more thought.  I will say I've only seen a couple episodes of Parks and Rec, but it did NOTHING for me. I've always preferred more subtle humor because it doesn't rely on low hanging fruit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rico Posted February 7, 2019 Share Posted February 7, 2019 Office with Michael Scott > P&R  P&R > Office without Michael Scott  Pretty much anything halfway decent > Office with James Spader, he needs a punch in the face. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bad Things Posted February 7, 2019 Share Posted February 7, 2019 The Office, hands down.  Parks and Rec was a decent show, but really became annoying when Leslie got into the political thing. Then, it just became annoying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
