One of my favorite regular articles was my sitcom face-off’s where I paired two sitcoms together to see which was better. I haven’t done one of these in ages. Why? Because I ran out of shows. I had a rule of doing one show one time, and I simply ran out of shows and/or matches. However, one show I love that I never did was The Big Bang Theory. I was waiting for it to end, and am still kinda waiting. Until May 16th anyway. But i think the time has come to finally give this show some attention. But what to match it to? I have argued it could be a “Friends” rip off but haven’t I talked enough about that show? I needed another good show which matched up enough to compare them. It took awhile, seriously, but I finally remembered a great ensemble show which does kind of match. So let’s have a face off with :



VS



It’s no secret which one I liked more than the other here, but I promise to be fair with this analysis. As always, this is just opinion and for fun. The office premiered in 2005 and was on until 2013. The Big Bang Theory premiered in 2007 and is wrapping up this year. These shows have pro’s, and some major con’s, but which is better?

I could watch a few minutes of Big Bang but I never found The Office funny

My personal preference is The Office. I love the Michael Scott character. I'm okay with Big Bang Theory but I haven't watched it since the end of the fourth season. Now that it's over, I may binge-watch the whole series. I don't know.

Big Bang easily.

Big Bang- no contest. I never could stand The Office. That mock-serious-awkward style of humor doesn't work for me.
