The Office on NBC
Did anyone catch the Pilot last night?
I didnt realize the show started up already and only caught the last 10 minutes. I did set up a season pass now so it wont happen again.
I never got into the bbc version, but every add for this show on NBC makes me laugh out loud!

The office mangaer character was played way over the top, to the extent of detracting from the quality of the rest of the show.
Aside from that flaw, I found the show interesting enough to want to catch it again.

I think the original BBC show was hilarious. I didn't even watch the NBC version, I just assumed they wouldn't get it right. Maybe I should have watched?

The NBC version is pretty funny...
Watched last night, an episode I hadn't seen before...was hilarious...forming an Alliance, getting the guy into the box, lol.
I'm renting Season 1 so I can watch them all through..

Rented the Season 1 DVD, I would highly recommend it...there are some pretty funny deleted scenes on it as well.
Dwight - "I have just installed the latest security and encryption, you cannot break into my computer" (or something like that)
After a short pause...
Jim - "Is your password 'Frodo'"?
Dwight - "No..." (he starts typing really fast on his computer)
Another short pause...
Jim - "Did you just change your password to 'Gollum'"?
(more typing...)
ROTFL...
Great show, the basketball episode is pretty hilarious, as is the Immunity one.

I saw the backetball episode and wasn't impressed. I had a few chuckles, but I like the BBC series much better.

I think it's kind of like Office Space, or Napolean Dynamite...the more you watch it, the more things seem funny to you...

Could be. I didn't hate it, I was just sort of "eh" on it.
I have too much "must see" TV as it is, so I won't be TiVo'ing this one...If I happen to catch it I'll probably watch it again.
