I've got such a crush on Pam.

I've got such a crush on Pam.

Seems every dude who watches the show does,
except this white guy I know who wants the
desi chick. I don't think she's all that attractive,
but she's one of the show's writers, so that's
kinda cool.

US version is crap.

UK shows moving the US is progress.

[SpicyBrownRapper]

The 2nd season of the US version > anything the dirty British version was able to achieve.

Before 2nd Season, I'd have agreed with the lots that the British one was superior, but 2nd season has far surpassed any and every expectations.

[timeless_urge]

its alrite.

At the risk of sounding like a chick, I really need
to see what happens after season 2's cliffhanger...

Ricky gervais created the american version

Tell me about it.

[graphicDESIgner]

Ricky gervais created the american version

Yeah. And he improved upon the original.

[kashif1986]

Yeah. And he improved upon the original.

maybe he did but his character was brilliant

[Spork]

The Office >God

[SpicyBrownRapper]

maybe he did but his character was brilliant

I personally think Steve Carell has outdone him.

[graphicDESIgner]

I dunno why I'm even trashing it 'cause
for all I know it's just as great...but the
US version's gotta be hard to top.

[Spork]

Carrell > God

The Office >God

Dwight Schrute = God

"My spoon's too big!"
"I am a banana."

"My anus is bleeding!"

[graphicDESIgner]

I'm willing to give it a shot...

[Spork]

"My spoon's too big!"
"I am a banana."

"My anus is bleeding!"

That's what she said!

[reaz]

Carrell is amazing with his pregnant pauses. I can't help laughing when I see that look on his face.

[graphicDESIgner]

That's what she said!

*Michael Scott walks in, spotting Dwight with grapes.*

"That's what she said!" :lol:

I read that he and Rainn Wilson improvise a lot on the show.

[Kip Dynamite]

the US version is horrible, typical american shit.

UK is actually quite hilarious.

er, the 'REAL' office is the UK one. ricky gervais all the way baby.

Typical skepticism. Steve Carrell > Chuck Norris

Nah, that was just practice. A rough draft really.

Typical snobby British outlook, who probably hasn't even seen the US version. Choke on a donkey dick.

[reaz]

I think that's what sets them apart. Even in the 40year old virgin there was a lot of improv and "method acting". I am sure you know, the waxing scene was real.

[graphicDESIgner]

"NERD! That's why you're not on the team."

[graphicDESIgner]

:rofl: Yeah...that's why everyone's cracking up
in the background of the waxing scenes...they
couldn't reshoot 'cause it was real hair, but the
cast couldn't keep it together after hearing Carell
IMPROVISE interjections like "Kelly Clarkson!"
when in pain. Brilliant.

:roflbow: at Carell.. I absolutely loved the insults. I was close to tears when I was watching that scene.

He also improvised the whole bit about
how he makes egg salad sandwiches.
The script only had a line about how he
organizes wires (they were only establishing
how dull his life is) and then he just went
off on an overly detailed sandwich anecdote.

I love how he's so great at improv in real
life - even teaching an improv class - yet
his character in The Office is just so God
awful. "I have a gun!!"

His real life wife plays the real estate chick
and she used to be one of his improv students.

Oh, so you know all about taking it in the 'aaass' then? Nyes, nyes...

No, I am not from the UK. Yes I have seen the US version multiple times, unfortunately.

Dwight Schrute: "I have been Michael's number two guy for about five years, and we make a great team. We're like one of those classic famous teams. He's like Mozart and I'm like Mozart's friend. No, I'm like Butch Cassidy and Michael is like Mozart. You try and hurt Mozart, you're gonna get a bullet in your head, courtesy of Butch Cassidy."

I had the underlined portion printed on a white sweatshirt -
along with a photo of Dwight - for Spork's birthday present. :D

[graphicDESIgner]

Jim: "Just have Dwight punch you."

Michael: "Oh, yeah! Well, that would be kinda worthless because
I know a ton of 14-year-old girls who can kick his ass."

Jim: "You know a ton of 14-year-old girls?"

Dwight: "What belt are they?"

I've got such a crush on Pam.

i have a total girl crush on her. and jim = the perfect guy.

[graphicDESIgner]

I know a lot of chicks who like Jim for his looks,
which I don't really see. He's got an awesome
personality on the show and is funny as hell, so I
can see why girls like him, but these girls mostly
seem to like him for appearance.

he's not the hottest guy, but he's still pretty good looking. but what makes him so awesome is, like you said, his personality, humor, how he cares so much.

[graphicDESIgner]

Pam's friggin' awesome in that department herself.
Rarely do you see goodlookin' chicks who've got
that kind of sense of humor, fully supporting and
helping Jim in his efforts to be an ass to Dwight.

Putting Dwight's stuff in the vending machine was
so priceless. :rofl:

[lovestick]

I really like the UK version a lot better. The US version seems forced and contrived. The brilliance of the UK version lies in the fact that *everyone* on that show was a nobody before the show. It was entirely believable at first that the whole set was actually a real office, just with bizarre characters. The American Office doesn't have that.

In any, I think y'all should watch it first before reserving judgement.

[EwLookItsYou]

loool i love that show.. its soo stupid and funny

and then handing him a back of nickels to try to get the stuff back. :lol:

[alphaPAKI]

british office > american office

the american one does have its place but really the humour and actors in teh british one are 100x better, i heavily recommend checking it out

[King Ghidra]

:no:

US version was terrible in comparsion

[Kip Dynamite]

^ he speaks the truth.

[graphicDESIgner]

Lies. All lies.

[King Ghidra]

Lies. All lies.

Do not doubt King Ghidra?

[PrOfFaSeE]

nah
fuck that
u cant not have ricky gervais

[graphicDESIgner]

Do not doubt King Ghidra?

That's a question?

[King Ghidra]

That's a question?

I'm doubting my question

[WildWolfdog]

wtf, i've never heard of this show. Maybe it didn't air in Canada?

[graphicDESIgner]

wtf, i've never heard of this show. Maybe it didn't air in Canada?

That's a damn shame. It won the emmy for best comedy series
last night, and Steve Carell was nominated for best actor in a
comedy...but he lost to Tony Shaloub, who won for Monk...
also a kickass show.
