The UK version is so much darker than the US version. Both do a great job at satirizing the tedium of working in an office in the 2000s, but there are a few differences. The UK office always came back to the central character of David Brent, who proved time and time again what happens when a boss confuses respect for friendship, overreaches for both, and achieves neither. Michael Scott suffers from a similiar blind spot, but the US show has allowed other characters to take the spotlight and perform in 더 많이 eccentric ways, broadening the comedy and making it reach 더 많이 viewers, and in this viewer's opinion, weakening it a great deal.

The UK Office is a fantastic self-contained series, where 당신 can really see the work that went into the construction of every episode. It's lightning in a bottle. The US Office seems drawn out to the point where I nearly don't care what happens to these characters anymore. It's like open lunchmeat -- the freshness is gone and it's starting to green.

The U.S. version is much, much better. I am a hug 팬 of the American version, but I'm also a bit of an anglophile and I 사랑 Monty Python. So, when I heard of British people complaining that the U.S. version was a rip-off and the British version was funnier, I decided to check it out.

Holy cow. First of all, the characters just weren't funny most of the time. It was a bit gloomy, and the characters actually seemed like real people. Gareth, for instance, was not at all like Dwight. He was not over-the-top insane, and I know he wasn't meant to be that way, but this is supposed to be a comedy! A guy who seems like a real paranoid person and looks like he needs a blood transfusion isn't funny.

In addition, there was a lot of overly-raunchy "humor". There was a so-called "joke" in the first episode that was so disturbing it left a dark 구름, 클라우드 hanging over me for the entire day.

I like Ricky Gervais and I like British humor. But this just wasn't funny; I'm sorry. The characters *too* realistic and gloomy, the humor either dull 또는 raunchy.

UK is 더 많이 consistently funny. I have laughed so hard that I've cried. I've laughed so hard that I've had to pause the TV so I could catch my breath. US version has 더 많이 심장 in that we really follow the lives of the characters and we sympathize with them, whereas in the UK version there are only 14 episodes, and that's not a lot of time to connect with the characters. However, the UK comedy is not for everyone. The US version has dragged on way too long, and as a fanatic (yay red medal!) I personally think that it should've ended with season 3. The last three seasons have been pretty lame; it's like I'm watching a whole different show than what it used to be. Alas, that is a completely different story. And I have rambled long enough.

LOL seriously though this 질문 is a never-ending debate.

(PS - The scene that I'm embedding is, in my opinion, perhaps the funniest scene from the series. Enjoy!)

Oh... and I pretty much agree with what 당신 said. I guess I like the US one more, because I feel there's 더 많이 heart, so I'm 더 많이 attached. But... I definitey think the UK version is a better piece of work overall.

Personally, I prefer the US version. I like the characters better, but both are hilarious. I have been watching the US version longer anyways...

Still, Ricky Gervais is AWESOME. I don't know who I like better with him and Steve Carell.

A 질문 that is almost to difficult to answer.
As a Brit who loved the UK Office i was unsure how i would react to the US version, but i totaly 사랑 it.
It's been helped with 더 많이 time for individual charecters to emerge and show there full range of emotions along with setting a back story- this was superbly shown with the 사무용 겉옷, 전반적인 relationship with Toby, which was fantastic as it allowed 당신 to only imagine what had gone on previously!!!

Definitely the UK version. Not everyone may find it as funny, because of its realistic style and uncompromisingly bleak, dry humour, but that's what makes it so fantastic. The US one is 더 많이 of a universal concept, the humour being very straight-forward and that, in my opinion, makes it less funny 또는 special. The UK is wonderfully original and a breath of fresh air even ten years on- I get the impression that 당신 either 'get' it 또는 당신 don't though, and I can see that it might not be for everyone.
