My pick is The Good Place, so creative with a great mix of philosophy, one liners, etc. I really respect The Office as well and its then brand new style of comedy, making humor about deep narcissism and other mental illnesses, the romance, etc.

Drop off after that. Parks and Rec doesn’t quite work for me, I like the idea of adult Lisa Simpson in Springfield, but it’s just a little too saccharine in my opinion. And I got tired after half a season of B99 when I realized every character has one joke they just go back to again and again.

The Good Place is the best single cam comedy of all times and it's not even freaking close

The Office by a tiny tiny bit over Good Place. Mainly because it really got me to connect with so many characters.

This is indeed a difficult choice. I love Parks and recreation, B99, The office didn't connect with me, The Good Place is a masterpiece but I don't know if I'll remember it as fondly as Parks and recreation. For now on quality basis I'll go with The Good Place.

Yea it’s my other favourite single cam ever with Community, the first three seasons are perfect and the best romcom of the 2010s over any movie in my opinion, the Hulu seasons drop off a little but are still good

Mexico doesn't get Hulu, all we have is Netflix if it isn't in Netflix is have to watch it illegally which fine yeah, but sometimes quality ain't that good, lol

Good Place
Parks
The Office
B99 (have only seen like 2 seasons)

Good Place is overall the best, though they had a much looser story structure that allowed it. If The Office had ended after Jim and Pam get together we'd probably have fonder memories, but it got kinda dull, though still watchable, after that. Parks never hit the highs of Office season 2 and 3, but was overall more consistent and the supporting cast was a lot more fun.

30 Rock, Seinfeld, Arrested Development - the best comedies in TV history. Community was on pace through first three seasons but the Harmonless season 4, the Gloverless season 5 and the budgetless season 6 definitely brought it down.
