I am a huge fan of the office. I keep hearing a lot about parks and rec. Thinking of starting it on Netflix. Input? Thanks

At this point yea. But compare the first 4 seasons I give office the edge.

If you're a fan of the first four seasons of The Office, you won't be disappointed with Parks and Rec. It isn't even close to being as awkward but it's just as funny, IMO.

Parks and Rec IS The Office. Let's be honest here.

At its best, The Office was better. Parks and Rec is better now.

The Office has better highs and worse lows.

Parks and Rec s more consistent all the way through.

Parks and Rec also has stronger characters all the way through.

But the Office has Creed.

To each his own, but both are quite good.

Wife and I are huge Office fans and tried several episodes. We just didn't find it funny and couldn't get into it. Didn't find any of the characters interesting, either. And I happen to think Rashida Jones is hot.

Both shows have had good and bad seasons. The Office has definitely gone down hill, but is still pretty funny for the most part. Parks and Rec was pretty shitty for the first season, but since then it has been money. The character dynamics have been developed pretty well. Overall I'll give the nod to The Office, but it's getting closer.

I agree with what pretty much everyone is saying. Definitely give it a try, and don't give up if/when the first season doesn't hook you. The second season on is where it's at. I still watch both shows, but I find that I look forward to Parks and Rec more.
