RE: The Office (USA version): An absolutely fantastic and addictive show

I did struggle after watching the UK series first and gave up mainly because the humor is just not the same. I guess you would have to be American to appreciate the show fully. Comedy does differ so much and why I do tend to avoid American shows for that very reason because I don't find it on the same level as British humor.

Sort:  

There is no doubt that the office USA wouldn't exist if not for Ricky's original. I enjoyed both of them and thought the were great. Ricky appears in a few episodes of the USA one and I would imagine that he has absolutely zero issue with them adapting his show because he was a producer and made a ton of money without really having anything to do with making it!
