It took me several attempts to watch parks & rec. It ended up being one my favorite. I’ve tried The Office a couple times and couldn’t do it. Same with Sunny.
The office had to happen to open the door for the genre to the general public. So I say thanks to it, we got the more refined parks and rec. Watching the office back in the day was hilarious, but now it’s clear that it only walked so parks and rec could run.
I actually watched several episodes of the British original and thought it was fine. I didn’t go out and find the rest to watch or anything, but it was fine. That said, I think watching the original made it hard for me to watch the American version of the show. I have a lot of trouble watching a show if I’ve already read the book(s) for a similar reason.

It’s Always Sunny wasn’t worth watching until season 3, imho and even then it had a lot of dead rubber.
