Heres why you can't score The Office a 10 From Cold Opens to Plot Lines, Continuation, Visuals , Dead Pan , Acting and down right funniness this tops The Office in every dept.
Where there had the one big star to start in with Steve Carell PAR has the wonderful Amy Poehler who is definitely a far more trained performer for this kind of work and even her production work shines through. But PAR also as deadpan Nick Offerman , Office trainee Rashida Jones who shines , zany Aziz Ansari , the delightful comedian Aubrey Plaza and thats just naming those who given main role in series one.
Im starting watching PAR again on Netflix after watching The Office for the first time, im glad i did it this way round . If i had done it the other way i think The Office would come over worse.
The Office is very good, But Parks and Rec is SNL funny. To translate funny to Britain so well is not easy . One of the funniest TV shows of the 21st by a mile.
