The Office (USA)

[legend7]

Possibly controversial as I avoided watching this for years thinking the yanks could never replicate it as well.
However I reckon its actually much better and more engaging than our version. 7 series in as many weeks and still funny as fuck.

I'd agree can't stand Gervais the wanker. Office USA is class like

 

[Daffy]

Don’t be ridiculous

I don't like him but did love the office uk.
Never thought I'd like this as much, brings so many more characters into it

I loved the UK office but once you get past the first series the US one is a lot better I’d say.

Dwight Schrute is one of the best characters in any show

 

[Harry Angstrom]

Don’t be ridiculous

It is sublime tv. If you cannot see that, it is your loss.

I think that's the difference the UK was about him with a few extras the us one digs into every character

Finchy , Tim , Gareth & Keith are absolute legends . David Brent is untouchable
They wouldn’t get it over there
British humour at its best
USA can’t replicate it
Never will

I thought that. Have you watched it? Its honestly as cringeworthy and as clever. And Gervais etc are involved you know

Aey

That was enough

Each to their own I guess.
Love ours but thought they improved it immensely hence it probably got a lot more seasons and won so many awards

Behave.

 

[CollingwoodFTM]

Once it stops following the UK story lines it becomes much better. Very funny. I didn’t watch it for years as I thought it would be a poor copy. But it is very good. I quite fancy Pam like. And Jan.

I watched Extras over the weekend. I forgot how funny it was and refreshingly un-pc

the uk one could easily have had 7 seasons too but RG was right to want to move on to other things

 

[Some Random Guy]

Agree, the US version had a lot more time to do its thing though.

If you watched the 14 episodes of the UK then the first 14 episodes of the US ours pisses all over it.

 

[FootballFan]

UK version for me.
