Michael Scott: Oh, and another fun thing. We, at the end of the night, are going to give the check to an actual group of Boy Scouts. Right, Toby? We're gonna...Toby: Actually, I didn't think it was appropriate to invite children since it's, uh, you know, there's gambling and alcohol. And it's in our dangerous warehouse. And it's a school night. And, you know, Hooters is catering. Is that enou-is that enough? Should I keep going?

When I first heard about this show, a "remake" of a British comedy, I thought it was going to be lame. I hadn't seen the original, but the very thought of "Americanizing" a British TV show for stateside audiences sounded ridiculous. Then I actually saw the show and was hooked from the start--I don't believe there is anywhere else on TV where the uncomfortable, dead-on, dry comedy of The Office is available, and I end up laughing out loud at every episode. The characters and situations are pretty flawlessly put together, and I have and would recommend it to anyone.
Just for the record, after enjoying the American Office so much, I did see the original British Office as well. I think that, although the pilot episodes for each are basically identical, the American version evolved in a rather different direction. I really enjoyed the more bawdy, dark edge of the British Office, but the American version is just an entirely different show, especially as it got into its second season. Both versions are worth a watch.
