Title: The Office Post by: punkinhead on September 19, 2006, 06:56:02 PM any fans here? I'm a huge fan of the US version, I recently bought the 2nd season and can't wait to see the premiere on Thurs. I have the last 4 episodes to catch up on.
Title: Re: The Office Post by: Zander on September 20, 2006, 01:04:49 AM The English version of the Office is great! I've never seen the US version. Ricky Gervais is fantastic as David Brent, have you seen his "new" programme called Extras? I'd go so far as to say it's better than the Office... ;D
Title: Re: The Office Post by: Jonas on September 20, 2006, 09:48:48 AM I started an Office topic a few months ago...good looking out ::)
anyway, I love both versions but I enjoy the US version more. Title: Re: The Office Post by: Rocker on September 20, 2006, 04:41:29 PM Guys, I'm so sorry for you, that you probably won't be able to understand the german one. I really can't think of any better one than this. It's called "Stromberg" here and every single actor is awesome and not to top imo.
Anyway, here are two clips: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zLy1WhfJMU4 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nK-CKfquBsc The first one is just a preview and is not part of the actual show. Title: Re: The Office Post by: punkinhead on September 21, 2006, 10:20:12 AM sorry joe...i just honestly got into it, so i wasnt paying attention
Title: Re: The Office Post by: JRauch on September 21, 2006, 10:25:05 AM "Stromberg" is the best thing on German TV since Loriot. I really mean it! It's THAT great. Christoph Maria Herbst was born to play this character.
Title: Re: The Office Post by: Jonas on September 22, 2006, 06:40:12 AM GREAT Season premiere last night...
Title: Re: The Office Post by: Bubba Ho-Tep on November 03, 2006, 12:41:01 PM Am I the only one who is thinking that maybe “The Office” has "jumped the shark"? This season has been funny, yes, but isn’t there a lack of that sense of cosmic perfection found in the first 2 seasons? Maybe it’s just me. Characters are acting in ways that seem forced at times. Don’t get me wrong, I love the show, it’s the only show I watch, and I hope to God I am wrong, but the show just doesn’t seem quite as magical as it had in the past. Something is missing (maybe British scripts to work off of?).
Title: Re: The Office Post by: Jonas on November 03, 2006, 03:47:18 PM The Scranton branch is kind of boring right now, all except anything Dwight is involved in. For me, its ALL about the Stamford branch. I cant get enough of those guys...BIG TUUUUNA ALRIGHT!
:lol and I loooooooooooove Karen...shes gorgeous!

Something is missing (maybe British scripts to work off of?). Haven't really been following the American version, but there's proabably a limit as to how long it can run without jumping the shark, less time than the usual sort of show, I reckon. Over here, Ricky Gervais ended it after two series (of, I think, 6 episodes each), followed by a two-part Christmas special. That was the right time, I think. A third series may have brought it down somewhat. Title: Re: The Office Post by: MBE on November 08, 2006, 08:41:52 PM I think it is the best show on TV. I am in the US so I relate to that version more. I like the UK one too though. I don't think it is any worse then before because the realism of people not staying at the same job or branch rings true. Funny as all hell I think
Title: Re: The Office Post by: Mr. President on November 10, 2006, 06:54:13 AM Love The Office, I've only seen the US version, I hear the British one is better. It's a clever show with that uncomfortable/I feel bad for that person kind of humor.
