Busted open my copy of "The Office" seasons 1&2 last night
Incredibly, unbelievably funny.

The office manager is such a slimy self-absorbed bastard.

My favorite parts are the interactions between Gareth and Tim.


I hope it doesn't get "Americanized" and end up on NBC or some shit.

3. I LOVE the Office
I've watched every episode many times - and continue to do so on Thursday evening.

What a shame it is over.

I hear something new each time I watch the show. and I continue to laugh aloud at the same places.

Tim and Gareth - what a couple. There is no way this show could have been produced in the U.S. - just not down to U.S. standards.

Which was your favorite show? David doing his Management Training was absolutely hilarious - particularly his exit.

I have spent many years hooked to large U.S. corporations and I can recognize each of the characters somewhere in my past. - particularly David.

(I would like to have worked with more Jennifers, however)

5. Haven't picked a fave yet

Gareth: See, I was in the territorial army(he ssys for the fiftieth time)

4. Unfortunately, it is
It's in the works at NBC. They'll probably butcher it like "Coupling". "I'm the assistant manager." "No, Gareth. You're the assistant to the manager."
God, I love that show!

6. Aiiieegh!!!!!
Maybe it will quietly exit like Americanized "Coupling", then we can have "The Office" all to ourselves, again.
