The Office
Is anyone else addicted? The Office is a mockumentary (american version of a BBC show) of office life at Dunder Mifflin. This is one of the more intelligent comedys on television today. No punchlines, no laugh tracks. Just the funniest show ever.


Anyone else?

It's freaking brilliant. I really enjoy watching it. Hopefully, I'll be off work in time to watch the new season.

I actually watched an epsiode of the US version last night. I have seen all of the British ones. I found it fairly enjoyable but still not as hilarious as i found the British one.

All of my AIM away messages, whenever I use AIM, are Office quotes. There is nothing else worth quoting.

I am an enormous fan of the UK one. I saw an episode of the US one a bit over a year ago and I was very unimpressed. I think it's back on over here so I might give it another go.

I love the Office, but I also Love Steve Carrell, he was HILARIOUS in Anchorman, and I started watching the office after I saw that movie last year.

I sure hope they don't try and do that any more this season. I am not very happy with the quality of humor in that episode. The office has been funny because it is NOT politically correct. Why on earth make a politically correct gay episode? Come on.

I usually stay away from TV, but I like this show. I caught it by chance one day and loved it. Besides footy and Nancy grace, it's the only TV I'd watch. I'd like to see the original UK one.

But the quote at the end ruled - "I wonder if his roommate knows he's gay?"




I love the Office. We showed a couple of clips of the first season when we did a message series at my church about leadership.

I think its a great show. My only problem: I tryed to buy a few shows for my iPod from iTunes, but I'm Canadian and therefore cannot buy TV shows or movies from iTunes. Not even if I switch the country or pay by Visa.

I love this show more than MASH. For the most obvious reasons. It's amazing.
