Topic: I admit that I love the USA version of The Office… even more than the UK one!

I thought it was gonna be all crappy and cheesy, but after watching many episodes into season three, I really love it! I did like the boss in the UK version a lot, but on the whole, the USA version is actually better IMO. (And I say that after starting with the UK version and not being an American, so I'm not very biased…)

But then again, the UK version feels more realistic and it's funnier in a different way. I guess I would probably recommend both.

Characters just get developed a lot better in the US version. There's also a lot of humor that doesn't quite cross the ocean. Lots of local language that can't be understood here.

Oddly, I preferred the UK one after seeing the USA version first. Oh well, they're both good.
