Considering American remakes of British shows are usually absolute toilet, the American Office is actually very funny. The first couple of episodes are a bit weird as they copy the British series, but after it diverges it's very good, for the first 6 seasons at least. It's well worth a watch, just best to think of them as two different series completely.
Fair do's but I just can't do it. The Office is just too perfect (and Keith is part of that).
Agree - love the US version almost as much.
The theme is the same but the characters are different
I found it to be the same show “Americanised”. Take Tim compared to Jim for instance, where I found Tim’s asides slightly more subtle, Jim outright mugs at the camera and it can be rather annoying. I think both are good shows, but the original wins hands down for me.
