The Office: US Version
A few months ago, I finally got around to checking out the US version of The Office TV series. Man, what a great show! It's a mockumentary series where a film crew is observing the working life at the regional department of a small paper manufacturer. As in reality TV shows like "The Real World" and "Big Brother", each 30 minute episode's story is interspliced with fake confessionals/monologues from the various characters. Great characters. Inventively funny scenarios. And tons of stuff that any corporate employee can relate to. For me, Season 1 is very good; Season 2 had the best episodes; Season 3 (the current season) got a little generic with the "romantic" developments...but has recently returned to it's former brilliance. Here are some great scenes featuring Dwight:

Ricky Gervais in the original UK version is awesome (btw, he appears in "Night at the Museum" and his scenes are excellent). French TV made a version of "The Office" too, with François Berleand.

I loved what I have seen of the UK office. We must give respect to the original! There's a French Office? Is it any good?

Mouais, la version "french" manque cruellement d'acteurs de calibre, si on excepte Berléand....Un extrait ici: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HKoLrdHwZtc&mode=related&search=Pour ma part, je n'ai jamais vu la version US, mais j'ai adoré la version UK de Ricky Gervais..... Un casting irréprochable.... ;o)

Pour ceux qui ont aimé "the office", version UK, Ricky Gervais réalise une seconde série: "Extras". Un pur moment de bonheur, en 2 saisons de 6 épisodes chacunes.
