i agree, and im american, i watch the show whenever its on i love it! its freaking hilarious but its not on a lot on the BBc channels i got- which are too few :(
My sister has both seasons 1 & 2 of it. I watched it for the first time in a long while last weekend and I got a stitch in my side from laughing, lol.

Please mind me, lol.
The American version of The Office is nothing short of brilliant, quite honestly. One of the few shows I go out of my way to watch, the others being Arrested Development and Scrubs.
I honestly don't like the American version, it just isn't as funny to me. I don't like American humour that much, stuff like Seinfield and Arrested Development are the only shows that I can really stand.
u can stand seinfeld??
ive seen all the episodes like 5 times so i guess i have good reason to get pissed off by the show by now.
i agee arrested development rules!

If you open your eyes, then it's not as boring.
Ricky Gervais apparently really likes the American version; otherwise, he wouldn't have okayed it or wanted co-producer's credit.
I LOVED the British version and had my doubts about an American version being funny, but it really has worked out. I was LMAO at Dwight having the concussion this week, especially when he was in the meeting and didn't know he had his hand raised..:-)
Funniest moment for me on the British one was the Brent "If You Don't Know Me By Now" video. OMG..I laughed SO hard..:-D

Sometimes I cannot look at the tv due to laughing so hard and this past episode was one of them.
I have to agree with you, having just seen it - Dwight vomitting on his car sent me into fits of laughter. Probably one of the best episodes this season so far, although last week's was pretty damn good too.

"He doesn't have a wife."
"All farmers have wives."
"This one doesn't. He's gay."
"Well if he's gay he shouldn't be allowed near animals, should he?"
