Re: The Office Thread
I still like the UK version better, but the US version is funny too. Even though he was pretty disgusting, I had some sympathy for David Brent, but Michael Scott is pretty much pond scum (funny pond scum, but nonetheless pond scum). Same thing for Gareth as compared to Dwight. Tim/Jim is my favorite character.
I saw the UK version before I saw the US version, and after the first episode I absolutely hated it! It was too realistic and depressing... but I decided to go ahead and watch the second episode... somewhere in the middle of it, I was hooked! When the UK version finally got around to the kiss between Tim and Dawn (Jim and Pam) I was cheering out loud! Best on screen kiss ever!
I had decided to never watch the US version because I loved the UK one so much, I figured they could only mangle it... Anyone ever see the American version of Coupling? *shudder* But a friend whose taste I trust told me to go ahead and watch it... yea!
