30 Rock was more consistently good. Community had a few great seasons then kept going after losing cast members.

From that list, Community. If it was the original Office, then that would have been a clear winner but the US version was just weird and sad.

These shows tend to draw the best haters online.

I suppose all comedies are that way. Big Bang Theory is one of the most commercially successful comedy shows in the last decade, but it's so dang polarizing to talk about.

Damn! Tough choice...

Office is an all time favorite.
Community is just straight up hilarious.
I'm finally giving Parks and Recs a chance (only in the 4th season on Netflix) and I enjoy it so far.
30 Rock? It has its moments.

So if I have to rank it right now it's Office > Community > Parks and Rec > 30 Rock

There's a chance Parks and Rec gets ranked higher once I finish it but we'll see.

Arrested Development, Its Always Sunny, Brooklyn Nine-Nine, How I Met Your Mother, etc. are all better than those imo.

Although I've never really watched Parks & Recreation.
I enjoyed Community, but never really got into The Office. I think I watched a few seasons of it before dropping it...

Parks and Rec gets better and better as it goes along, so it'll be interesting to see how it stacks up for you.

The Office for sure. Ive seen it all the way through about four times. One of my favorite shows ever. 30 was skippable, and P&R starts great but goes way downhill after season 3 (really season 2 though).

Never seen Community

I guess if you find them all unlikable there's no way you'll enjoy the show, that's for sure. I'll admit, sometimes Michael Scott is unlikable for me as well. But he makes up for it more often than not so I can let it slide. (I'm one of the few though that probably thought the show was better AFTER he left.)

As for the UK Office.. ugh, that show bored me to tears. But at least I know I gave it a shot and I know British comedy isn't for me.

I agree with Its always sunny being better then all. Also with arrested development seasons 1-3. HIMYM had a few good seasons, but man I've never seen a show nose dive so hard and so fast.

Brooklyn 99 is equal to big bang theory for me. Unwatchable.

I think Community nose dived harder than HIMYM.

I respect your option on Brooklynn 99, even if I disagree.
I do agree that Big Bang Theory is awful though.

Parks has my favorite cast and gives me such a warm and fuzzy feeling. Probably one of the best sitcoms ever.

The Office is a close second and I appreciate how it was one of the first mockumentary style sitcoms to make it big but some of the later seasons were really weak and I felt like it kind of overstayed its welcome a bit compared to Parks which ended at a great point. The cast is great though and it's fun to see so many of them grow as people over the series.

Community has a great ensemble cast but it's a much more hit/miss show for me than the above two. First three seasons are overall very good but seasons 4-6 this really starts to become the case. Losing so many main cast members hurt too. Pierce was one thing, but losing Troy was kind of the nail in the coffin for me.

Never seen 30 rock so no opinion on that

Lol this might be the most backwards opinion I've ever seen. I mean I can see not liking the later seasons of Parks, but to say season 1 and 2 are the best seasons of the show is mind boggling.

I thought the first season was really great, except for the Leslie love plot. The second season changed a few characters but ultimately for the better. Losing Brandonowitz and replacing them with Ben and Chris was awful though. They mightve been okay for a season but their permanent inclusion was a bad choice.

I'm almost done with Season 4 of Parks and Rec. So far, while it's a good show and most characters are likable (except Tom Haverford and Chris Traeger), I have yet to have laughed until I cried. So unless that happens down the line, I think it's looking like The Office takes the crown.

Agreed. The UK Office is better, but I would still rather watch The Royle Family as far as British shows go.

You actually bring up a good point. Many of these votes are probably people voting based on one (or maybe two, possibly three) of these shows that they've actually seen.

I highly doubt many of us have fully watched all 4 of these series through in their entirety, so it can be hard to be fully objective. I mean, if you've only seen one of them, then of COURSE that's going to be the "best one" to you. It's the ONLY one to you.
