GordanFreeman Posted December 7, 2007 Share Posted December 7, 2007 Shame this thread is about the american version *sigh* UK version's good, no doubt, but some things about the US version seem a little better. It's probably because we started watching the US version instead of the UK, therefore we like it more. Plus, US version has Dwight instead of Gareth. I've only seen a few of the UK episodes, but I did think that David was alot more of a character than Michael. I just started watching The Office a few weeks ago, but once I started I was hooked. Now I can't get enough of it. Favorite episode's probably Diversity Day, that had me in tears in some parts. "El que no arriesga no gana" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AThousandLies Posted December 8, 2007 Share Posted December 8, 2007 The British version is okay I guess, though I think Gervais is much better in Extras. The American version looks like a load of crap from what I've seen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pryomancer Posted December 9, 2007 Share Posted December 9, 2007 Americans don't understand why the British version is good, because they don't get sarcasm and the other higher forms of comedy. That's why the American version is dull and boring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's why the American version is dull and boring. Pretty broad statement. Not all Americans are oblivious to subtle forms of comedy/sarcasm, but many are. Though, to say that the American version is dull and boring, well, that's just as bad as Americans saying that the UK version isn't funny because they don't understand it.

It was meant to be broad, and of course I know there are a lot of Americans who understand subtle humour. But America as a culture really doesn't appreciate it, perhaps 'doesn't understand' was too strong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Retefael Posted December 10, 2007 Share Posted December 10, 2007 I love the Office. Seems to me that if everyone likes the UK Office so much, and that it was so much better than the US version, then why have no episodes been created since '03? Hmm... :-k I don't run races to see who's the fastest, I run to see who has the most guts. -PreCurrently the best beat out there:Minuit jacuzzi (DatA Remix) - TEPR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pfilc23 Posted December 10, 2007 Share Posted December 10, 2007 Any time a brit mentions their "highter forms of comedy", such as sarcasm, it makes me think of this riotous moment from the Daily Show: http://www.milkandcookies.com/link/80668/detail/ Granted it's a Spice Girl, but you get the point...

Satenza Posted December 11, 2007 Share Posted December 11, 2007 Yeah, British version probably my favourite show. Just for the incredible amount of subtle humour. American version i have seen a couple episodes of, but the orginal was almost perfection and i doubt it could beat it. With so many trees in the city you could see the spring coming each day until a night of warm wind would bring it suddenly in one morning. Sometimes the heavy cold rains would beat it back so that it would seem that it would never come and that you were losing a season out of your life. But you knew that there would always be the spring as you knew the river would flow again after it was frozen. When the cold rains kept on and killed the spring, it was as though a young person had died for no reason. In those days though the spring always came finally but it was frightening that it had nearly failed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
