It has strengths that the original doesn’t have, it has much more heart to it and it’s way less cynical (especially after season 1). It’s just a matter of preference. If you want a very dry, ironic version you go for the British one and if you want something that makes life actually look worth living you go for the US one.

Not just the UK. I'm a New Zealander and was in my late teens/early twenties in the late 1990s and early 2000's. I worked in offices like this as a temp during University break and in my first 3 graduate roles. This show really hit close to the bone for me, the entire cramped and pastel-coloured office environment and the fact you're spending time with people whom with you have nothing in common. The bullying and cliques and social hierarchies. Middle management being incompetent or mediocre and who're very insecure & immature people who've been elevated because they're safe & little threat to their superiors, and who lack any spine and try to avoid any responsibility/ugly tasks and try to make themselves popular yet try to assert authority by trying to impress people. The "team leader" who is just the middle manager's little lickspittle who does their dirty work and spies. The fact that most of the people working there don't deep-down really want to be there and may even hate their jobs but are trapped there because of necessity and/or needing to maintain their "Status" of having a "respectable job". The breakdown between the old male-dominated chauvinism of pre-1990's offices and the new political correctness and people always crossing the line and needing to be disciplined. Older people who were passed over for management being mortified at the prospect of losing their job. So many events that were portrayed in this show actually happened in workplaces I held positions in. Thankfully most office workplace environments have improved since, I wonder if this show and its US version were a catalyst for it?

The 'Who Cares Win's segment is a brilliant bit of writing. They had to perfectly capture that level of cringe of low-budget late-80's/early-90's training videos in way that's entertaining and satirical in its own right, but still had to keep up just the right amount of believability to exist within the universe of The Office's own brand of authentic-cringeworthy satire. There's multiple levels of complexity going on here and would've taken an incredible level of balance to work as well as it did in the final show. I'm genuinely blown away by the writing in this series.

My favourite is Brent's pride in his school art assignment. It's exactly the sort of thing people do at school, so believable he'd still be really proud of it.

Dawn is an absolute fox

I just discovered Makenzie Crook's brilliant show "The Detectorists". He is a great writer. It's well worth a watch.

the Slough poem was tremendous... and true

Those scenes where David Brent discussed art, and Dawn and Tim discuss Gareth's drawing, made me feel like a kid again. Great stuff Ricky and Steve.
