The UK one is the best comedy of all time. A work of art.

First season is shite as it tries to be the UK Office which it isn't

If we nominate an episode would you watch it?

I'd nominate Dinner Party

Dinner Party is great but is better if you've seen earlier episodes as you'd know the characters and their history here (like the Hunter (or James Van Der Beek) scene). From the earlier series, I like the racism episode and the purse seller one. Can't go wrong with any from the first 3/4 series I think.

Still, to incur your wrath, the UK office is so much better.
We have to change from doubter to believer. Now.

agree Dinner Party probably works better when you know the character history

i like the First Aid scene

basically all of Jim's pranks on Dwight are good stand-alone gags too

Reeled me in, since I was trawling this part of the forum.

UK Office is literally in the top 10 greatest shows of all time. Watched 4 episodes of the US version ...

I remember watching a pilot of the US version of Red Dwarf to, wasn't pleasant.
- all in my opinion of course -

You might want to stop watching it there. Episode 22 to be precise.

Ha, is that when Michael leaves?! It's definitely not as good without him, and I'm not keen on Catherine Tate being in it.

Rafa Benitez: "I'll always keep in my heart the good times I've had here, the strong and loyal support of the fans in the tough times and the love from Liverpool. I have no words to thank you enough for all these years and I am very proud to say that I was your manager. Thank you so much once more and always remember: You'll never walk alone."

She was awful. Not a fan of hers in general but she was spectacularly bad in this.
