The Office (New Sitcom, not the other one)

which one?

Although, the series did have a bad start, this season is going very swell.

This show has improved so much from the previous season, I'm being forced to bump this. It really does deserve more attention.

sorry, but I have to agree with Deano. After seeing both versions of "The Office" the US version just doesn't cut it. The script is almost identical verbatim and the jokes simply aren't delivered with the same dry English sense of humour and timing. It might as well be stamped "Made in Taiwan"!

Friend loaned me season 2 on DVD so I watched it and I really like the show.

Before watching season 2 I wasnt familiar with the show so I dont really know the schedule, just wondering what season and episode its on now and when they air.

If anyone follows this show and can give me some information it would be much appreciated.

It started as a BBC series before it became an American show. I believe it's on it's 3rd season and it's part of NBC's Thursday lineup. I've had some co-workers that say it's really funny but personally I'm not a fan.

why they didn't just stop at 2 seasons in the US i dont know...comedy usually loses its appeal by then...hence the superior UK office stopped at 2 seasons...as did phoenix nights

trigger happy tv season 3...shit
bo selecta season 3....shit
league of gentlemen season 3...shit

erm...the few episodes i saw of the office (american version) i really liked...

steve carrell cracks me up...

Series 3 of Bo wasnt THAT bad
it gave us ELIJAH WOOD and the SPIDERMAN spoof

Did the U.S ever get BO SELECTA?

The Office is aweful.

i liked what i saw of it also...the episode when they get the guy to hide in the box and he takes ages to get out....brilliant

i just think it's hard for comedy series to stay good after more than a couple of seasons....

the brit version will always reign.

i just cannot liken to the US version.

For sure, the BBC Office is classic.

i just hate remakes. its like britain trying to remake the simpsons. leave the american classic alone.

i think the directors are insulting the american public.
