Extras. Fondly remembered The Office but seeing the whole first season the other night I didn't laugh out loud even once.

I didn't find it as funny as I once did, either...

Having started to watch the office again, I have to say the office. I hated it at one stage, then I realised that the stars who steal the show are Tim and Gareth by far. Quality show.

The Office is better, although some episodes of the US Office are as good as the UK ones

Why did you hate it at one stage, though?

Chances are, if you hate the office you need to watch it again without prejudice.

Hard to choose. The Office was so groundbreaking its hard not to choose it over Extras. But then Extras did manage to get high profile actors making fools of themselves (Patrick Stewart and Kate Winslet most memorably).

I'd mention the Comic Relief Extras special this year too, was very funny. Link below if anyone hasnt seen it.

Extras for me was better

I do like the US version of The Office better than the UK one
