In an era, when there are more media out of ever, new arbitrators have emerged to lead our more disoriented collective taste. Although throwing confusing events, such as the claim that it John Connery's only "perfect" movie is "Darby O'Gil and Little People", "Rothed Tomatoes" It appeared as such a guide through the weak and inflated media landscape, made by the rise of the Internet and streaming platforms. Also, IMDB, with its dedicated user base, is looking forward to registering its films and TV shows, provided another way to decipher modern media.

The web site that put "ransom of Joashank" at the top of its Best movies of all time, imdb It is probably not the best source of leadership, but at least it brings a certain sense of order to things. We now have the 250 best TV shows on the site of all time, for example, which provides a fun way to test your own flavors against the masses (or at least people who vote for IMDB).

Within that huge list, there are certainly a multitude of genres and in terms of sitcom, one show proved to be more popular than anyone else. Thanks to Metacritic, we know that Seth McFarlane made the worst sitcom of all timeBut the best? According to IMDB, this is the American version of the "Office".

The Office made the number 11 on the movie list the best sitcoms of all timeBut our own list has set more traditional sitcoms before, such as the undeniable classics "I love Lucy" and "Seinfeld". The Imdb However, the crowd voted the "office" to the number 27 of the greatest shows of all time, with a rating of 9.0 based on 758,000 votes. ("Rick and Morti", which can also be considered a sitcom, is higher in number 17, but since it is an animated series, we will not consider it a traditional sitcom for the purposes of this conversation.)

That said, there are no difficult and quick rules here. After all, it is debatable that the "office" is sitcom. Yes, it is a comedy situation in the most basic sense. But it feels so removed from the type of multi-cameramen sitkoms we are used to it, it seems unfair to compare, say, "friends" or "phrasier", and both give the feeling of seeing a little 25-minute Phase Game. The Office, on the other hand, is noticeable to use the style of ridicule and determine it as a standard for so many stories during the time that followed her footsteps. It is a sistle in the basic sense, but it's also nothing like the typical examples of the genre.

However, if we are fair to IMDB users who voted the show to 27, it is the highest ranking show that you can reasonably call Sitkom and, whatever it is already well established as one of the biggest TV shows of the modern age. The best episodes of "Office" are among some of the best episodes of TV ever made, so if IMDB wants to celebrate it as the best sitcom, why not?

It is interesting, Metacrytic lists the best sitcom of all time As an original British Office, which on the IMDB TV list is on number 221 with a rating of 8.5 based on 127,000 votes. It provides an interesting point for comparison, because the British equivalent feels as far away from the comedy of Cheers or Cosby Show as much as possible, and as such illustrates the wide bay between what we can usually think about as a sitcom. And the unusual space occupied by the US Office.

However, both British and American versions of the show are technically considered sitcoms and whether you prefer one another, both clearly influential. In the case of the American series, its ranking on the IMDB list is certainly an achievement of a variety. But it is worth noting that, such as spoiled tomatoes or any of these pages that apply metrics and percent of creative production, such lists should be taken with grain salt.

Aside from the fact that the IMDB was infamously subject to the bomber review, it is also just a great argument for consensus. That is to say that the best movie of all time is at the top of that specific list because enough people say it's good. Of course, consensus is almost everything we need to continue when it comes to trying to get a certain objective sense of the media landscape, and it is certainly useful at a time when there is too many things to see. But it is also just a reminder that your own taste is extremely everything that really matters - something to keep in mind the next time the page as it is Rotten Tomates claims to have only two "perfect" movies by Alfred Hitchcock.
