Does anybody watch this? I was a big fan of the English version but after watching the American I think its developed into something loads better. Season has just started continuing after writers strike, would recommend it

English version is shit and boring. The Americans love it so they're now onto their 4th season.
I have seasons 1-3 on DVD and love it

It's absoloutely amazing, I also liked the UK Office but it's very very dry comedy. Much more like a real office, and more of a documentary style as it was intended. Thing is though, it could only last so long. The American version is less like a documentary & lets the gags/plots get a bit sillier, which is good because pretty much all the episode have been brilliant

Im awaiting some chump replying in here saying its shit, because they've seen 1 episode & "it's too much like the UK version". The pilot was, but they weren't employing loads of decent writers for that one
Anyone seen episode 10 yet? Was quite good

I was like that, watched the 1st american one ages ago, saw that it followed almost the exact same script and thought sod that. Glad I gave it another go, been watching it repeatedly now, glad theres new episodes coming out now, ep 9 was awkward

I think the best bits are the the clip before the opening credits. Dwight's stuff in the vending machine

I loved the britiish version, much more convincing as a spoof documentary.I think the americs try too hard but its still a ver funny programme.
