Unless there's a pre-air version available for download .. unlikely that anyone here has seen it

If we're depending on Channel 6 to maintain a reliable and predictable schedule, then your guess is as good as mine.

First episode of the new season was an absolute cracker... was chock full of brillant moments:

- "Faggy!" :eek:
- Jim putting Andy's calculator in Jello - smiling and gesturing to the camera. Then Andy over-reacts, gets angry and kicks the bin. Jim sits up straight and watches his screen while looking back to camera shaking his head in fear!
- "Jim's always making faces to the camera like this!"
- Kevin's laugh when he discovered Oscar was gay
- Michael's suggestion that Oscar and Angela may be having a "gay affair"
- The "Gaydar"
- "You don't call a retarted person "retard"."
- The Oscar / Michael kiss .. too horrifying to watch

And i do miss actually quite Pam & Jim's little pranks and motions to each other at some of Michael's most cringeworthy lines .. as nodded to in this episode when she looked at Ryan.

Mr E

I was in tears by the end of it..... incredibly funny, and The Office at its best.

That line was brillant.

I think the American Office is way better than the English one.

Whoa whoa whoa... i love the show but let's not go nuts!

Mr E

Sorry Brian... I agree. In this episode, Michael Scott passed David Brent for cringeworthiness (I was watching the kiss scene between the fingers of my hands).

Don't get me wrong - at the moment... i actually think The US Office is without doubt the best comedies on TV.. but ask me which i prefer when The US Office has completed it's run.

Cos it still may go down a bad road and suffer a poor period in it's later life.. which in hindsight, the UK Office fortunately never did in it's short run. And we'd better hope if Carell leaves, they end it there cos they could never replace him.

But as i've said before.. both are completelty different shows in terms of humour. Characters may be similar (and the pilot episode was a mirror of the UK pilot) but that is where the similarity starts and ends.

Thats why I like the American version more. Never got into the English one at all.

I'm not a big fan of David Brent in genearl but I do like Extras.

Cant find the other thread (unless this is the one but I thought there was a lot more posts!)

Last night was class. When mick tells the camera he had sex his face was unreal!
