	The Office - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Both are set in the offices of a paper supply company, with a boss whose high opinion of his managerial skills (and his sense of humor) is not shared by his employees.
		The U.S. version is set in the city of Scranton, Pennsylvania, focusing on a paper company called Dunder Mifflin.
		Some have speculated that the difference is possibly less influenced by plot necessities as by the fact that in the U.S. version the character is portrayed by one of the writer/producers for the show.

	The Office Depot: US & UK Series (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02)
		A lens of love devoted to both the UK and US versions of this classic comedy from the minds of Ricky Gervais and Stephen Merchant.
		A remake of the hit 2001 BBC TV series The Office (2001), this is a mockumentary that documents the exploits of a paper supply company in Scranton, Pennsylvania.
		The first episode of the U.S. series contained many scenes taken from the first episode of the U.K. series almost word for word, with only names and cultural references changed, but all episodes afterward are original American productions.

	BBC NEWS \| Entertainment \| Gervais' surprise at Globes win
		The show is being remade in the US - Gervais recently said he had found the actor to play the US David Brent, but did not say who.
		The Office is an absolute gem when compared to most of the lacklustre programming that we produce in the States.
		The US TV industry is so insular and it is very rare that they appreciate a show or format that is not home-grown.

		Plot Outline: A mockumentary on a group of typical office workers, where the workday consists of ego clashes, inappropriate behavior, and tedium.
		Everyone else is marvellous too; I think the American version has a fl guy in Accounts instead of the British Keith, but he's got a wonderful vacant look about him too.
		One wonders if it will last on prime time on US TV; bear in mind the original was lauded and popular in Britain, but didn't get massive ratings until the Xmas specials.

	The Office (US) - Roobarbs DVD Forum
		I've seen the US pilot episode and while it's not exactly a work of genius, I never subscribed to the school of thought that said the UK one was either.
		If the US version has just tried to get Brent and not also paid attention to Tim, Gareth and Dawn (and even Neil or Big Keith) then it will fall flat on it's face, as Brent alone is not enough to sustain an entire series.
		Of course, the UK - US examples you mentioned all featured highly (I'm a fan of Sanford and Son more than the original, personally) and there was also a strong focus on the US launch of Coupling, which was set to go live at about that time.

	The Office (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02)
		In the US version the reaction shots are there merely to show that this is suppose to be a candid documentary.
		The US version also is sufficiently distinct from the British version to be able to watch other than as an intellectual or critical exercise.
		In the US version, the relationship between the Dawn and Tim characters (I can't remember their names) seems forced, and their behavior toward American Gareth seems mean and unjustified.

	half-pie: the office (us)
		I’ve just finished watching the first two episodes of the new US version of classic Brit comedy The Office.
		I’ve read elsewhere that from episode 2 onwards it’s all US scripted, with few references to the original.
		Episode 2 is pretty good and the humour is surpisingly subtle for a US spin off.

		The office constituency is led by (co-writer of the show) Ricky Gervais who plays David Brent...a cocktail of extreme insecurity, arrogance, and level of social ineptitude that pushes (but doesn't cross) the envelope of possibility.
		Overall, I found the first season of The Office quite hilarious - the manager is just awful, and his subordinates all have their own problems too.
		Tim and Dawn, the star-crossed couple of the office, have to deal with the immovable object known as Dawn's fiancee Lee.

		The brilliant and devastating comedy of The Office is brought to a satisfying conclusion in The Office Special, originally a two-part Christmas special on the BBC, set three years after the end of the faux-documentary's second season.
		When we last left the staff of "The Office" it was at a crossroads: secretary Dawn and her fiancee Lee were headed for the States, Gareth was headed for a promotion, and everyone's least favourite boss David Brent had been made redundant.
		David pops into the office uninvited on a regular basis, and the manager Neil is so fed up that he tricks David into agreeing to bring a hot date to the party.

	The Office (US) Pilot Episode - Entertainment Television
		I just watched the pilot of the US version of The Office.
		Somehow the manager (Michael Scott) played by Steve Carell isn't quite as creepy or cringeworthy as when played by Ricky Gervais, but that could just be a nuance thing which will be better appreciated by a US audience.
		Unlike I believe around 50% of the US audience who didn't bother to tune in for episode 2.
