Tough one..but I'd give The Office a slight edge.  Especially if you forget their last season.

That's why Parks and Rec got the slight edge from me. It never really jumped the shark.

Can't tell if this is a complaint or compliment.

The first 5 seasons of The Office give it the edge IMO.

 

Although Jean-Ralphio’s character was grossly underused in Parks and Rec

Respectfully, you can't just give a show a pass on 44.4% of its existence.

 

...maybe you can, but you shouldn't.

 

Parks and Rec for me.

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

I loved the office, but there was a sameness about that got trying on me, even in the early years.  Years 2-4 were the best.

 

P&R could be overly goofy at times, but (and I stand by this) and times was just plain funnier than the office.  Additionally there was growth along the way that didn't involve just the main characters.

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.
