I love the UK office, but it had 12 episodes. I would not consider it an all time great.

Da Ali G show fall under the same category for me.

Ye the Mona Lisa is like one foot by two feet and people call it a master piece what’s up with that? If a picture isn’t at least 6 by 10 it can’t make my list.
Booth shows you mention ran for two series. Id say two series of tightly written funny shows beats several series where the episodes are of variable quality.

Horrible analogy.
If you compared the 12 best episodes of the Simpsons, South Park, Seinfeld, etc. To The Office or Da Ali G Show most people would consider the first three to be better.

It is also a lot to easier to make 12 9's than 50 8.7's.
Just because the average episode of those shows might be better doesn't make the whole series better.
