Working had potential in the beginning but they never took themselves seriously enough-- & at the start of season 2 they're was no explanation of the significant cast changes except by showing the hand of an NBC exec shaking a snowglobe.

I like them both but "Working" is my choice.

I prefer "The Drew Carey Show." Just because the show took a recent downfall, people don't actually acknowledge that at one point this sitcom was amazingly great. In fact, I don't think the newer episodes are half-bad- the are just "decent."

I blame part of the ratings problems on ABC. They moved the show too much.

I choose Drew Carey. Working was good sometimes, but it wasn't great. Drew, however, had some great episodes at it's height. It also had some ideas that were good at first, like the musical/dance segments. Could you imagine Friends doing multiple musical/dance segments?
