The Office Or Parks And Recreation Quiz: Who Said It - Michael Scott Or Leslie Knope?

Which iconic boss said it - Scranton's fearless leader Michael or Pawnee's Proxy leader Leslie?

The Office Parks and Rec
NBC

NBC boasts an iconic lineup of sitcoms, and two workplace comedies that top the list are The Office and Parks and Recreation. Both shows come with a reality bite focusing on office workers' ordinary, mundane routines and driving dark humour out of those situations with highly relatable storylines and relationships.

Both shows share the same DNA, equipped with a perfect balance of emotions and dry sarcasm. The Office and Parks and Recreation have connected to fans on a deeper level than other shows, and the main credit boils down to an array of relatable ordinary characters.

The office workers of Scranton and Pawnee are entirely comparable. One contrast often debated among fans is between the fearless leader of Dunder Mifflin Scranton - Michael Scott, and the proxy leader of Pawnee - Leslie Knope.

Both characters can also be termed the world's greatest bosses with their unique management styles. And even though Leslie started as the Deputy Director, she was Pawnee's unsung leader and was just as vital to Parks and Recreation as Michael to The Office.

If these two characters ever met, they'd be the greatest managing duo of all time. But before we try to merge Scranton and Pawnee branches and put them in charge, here's a quiz to celebrate these two iconic TV characters. Can you tell Michael and Leslie apart from these quotes alone?
