The Office on NBC

Post by See You Next Wednesday »

I love this show. So many great characters. Funny as hell. I couldn't really get into the British version of the show, but I am digging the US version.

Big fan.

My office is closer to a Dilbert strip but NBC's show has its moments of similarity.

Very underrated cartoon show...Dilbert. I like it when Comedy Central shows episodes from time to time. They've gone away from showing stuff like Dilbert and The Critic. I seem to see it mostly on Sunday mornings between 7 and 9. They'll usually run a 2-hour block of old show they don't show much of anymore.

I've never seen the NBC version. The BBC original is classic - give it another shot.

Funniest part was when Michael gets into his hockey gear and starts crosschecking everyone.

:lol:

He appeared to be a (both sides of the blades) decent skater.

And here's to the movie, Office Space.
One of my all time fav re-watchable movies.

Both shows suck.

Rack. I tried to get the NBC version but I can only stomach so much :?'s during a 30 minute period.

Gervais's current show on HBO, Extras, is high up on the funny charts also.

You obviously haven't seen My Name Is Earl.

That, I can relate to.


I just don't get the humour in The Office.

Nothing compares to Seinfeld, you must be the Anti-Christ.
