The Office

[jjhunter]

what do we think of the office? Personally, I think its the best show ever, and I love Andy.

 

[slowhand]

Well I never did like that show my self.

^The US version is not particularly funny, but then again I have nothing to compare it with :dunno:

I havent seen the UK version yet. A certain site that had it has been recently shutdown. Shame. I do happen to love the US version, though. I think every character is great and Pam is an absolute fox (see Blades of Glory if you have any doubts lol).

its alright and steve carrell is very good but it reminds me to much of a place i used to work.

I loved Ricky Gervais' version of 'The Office'...so cringe-worthy:anonymous

 

[squallumz]

oh this is a show? i thought it was about real offices and how lame they are. why would i want to watch a show about offices?

 

[jjhunter]

you should. its great and funny. thursdays at 9pm/8 central. watch it

"Michael, wow, I-I've underestimated you."
"Well, Jan, maybe next time you will estimate me."

 

[jjhunter]

yeah, it was wierd. Not enough humor, too much emotion. what was up with jan? she was...nice.

American "Office" is watchable. I kind of like it. I've never seen the UK version.

One of the things I'm most bitter about is Comedy Central used to show the BRITISH version of "Who's Line is it Anyways" and Drew Carey brought an "American" version onto ABC a couple of years ago.
I was embarrassed to be an American when that absolute piece of shit "translation" was broadcast. It was nothing but a dumbed down version of the UK. It was the same "games" in the same order with the same comics in the same roles..show after show after show....

Why do UK television producers have respect for their audience and WE don't have any respect for our audience?????

Easy it might have had at least one thing to laugh at in it. If it did then it would beat the UK version.


But then again I've never found Ricky Gervais funny either. Nothing he's ever been in, on, wrote, including him been a so called stand up comedian.

Titsrock: Same thing with junkyard wars (god I miss that show(british version)...)


campgrey: i meant jan was nice meaning kind

I've tried to watch the American version but it just didn't make any sense to me, the British version was very original at the time. Was a whole new style of sit-com... The American version is just like every other piece of trash you get on TV.

Personally I hate Ricky Gervais, very overated and out spoken. I do find that I can't help laughing sometimes.

He is a very clever guy though, on par with Jimmy Carr. Bit like Marmite these two, love em or hate em.

 

[member006]

I don't like it or that one "Scrubs". I just don't have that type humor in me. Now "Two and a Half Men" omg that's a riot, love that show.

 

[sterobbo01]

I can honestly say I have never watched a full show of the Office, thought it was funny the first time I saw his dance which he made up on the spot.

I prefer things like Father Ted. Hehe!

No offence to The Office fans out there!:thumbsup:

I believe that is called Scrapheap Challenge here. I might be wrong, just that I've never heard of Junkyard Wars.

 

[jjhunter]

it was on TLC a couple of years ago. about a month ago they aired some reruns.
tonights office=ok. second second life was funny.

 

[jjhunter]

stupid writers strike...no new office.
