Default Anyone watching "The Office" TV show?
Must say that I've gotten hooked on the NBC show, "The Office." I really like this one. Love the quirkiness of it all and the characters are all people you may have worked with, but multiplied by a factor of 100! Love the tension between Pam and Jim as well.

I don't know, maybe it's just nice watching a show without a canned laugh/audience track. Anyone else watching this? Thoughts?

OMG-addicted to the maxxx! SALMA, schwiiing!

Bernie, I think it's the American remake you referring to. That one I haven't seen but here we had the original and it was one of the only series I have watched and enjoyed. Reality Tv by actors and a great pastiche. Excellent!

I see said the blind man... So there was a European version of The Office then? Interesting.

The US version is not a reality show, but very well done. I believe the boss in the US version is actually a Canadian actor if that means anything.

The Office was a huge success in the UK & has made its star/writer, Ricky Jervais, into a wealthy man. I like to call it 'cringe comedy' as it makes me cringe at how embarassing it can be. :-?

Something tells me our version is tame by comparison, but it's a breath of fresh air compared to the other shows currently on US TV. Can't wait to see the next episode, which I believe might be the final show for the season.

It was a real ratings winner here; the Xmas special was i think the most-watched TV show of the season!

Hmm, doesn't seem to be getting anywhere near the fanfare the UK version did. Judging from the lack of posts here I have a feeling that this great show may not see another season here in the US. Hope that's not the case though as I really enjoy it. Maybe they will make it available on DVD.
