    Watched the first one - quite poor on first viewing.

    Not as bad as the dreadful 'Rovers'

    I’m binging American office too, just started series 8. It’s grown on me with each series. I’ll miss it when I’ve finished

    Earl was brilliant for the first couple of series. Went stupid when he was in a coma but series one and two are excellent.

    I tend to agree although without rhyme or reason.
    MASH back in the day way very good, Happy Days too, though nostalgia plays a part.
    Can't be arsed watching any of the newer ones these days.

    Would you say its better that the UK office ,I noticed the first series almost mirrored the UK version and Brent , however Carroll has transformed the character in my view ,its hilarious, like you, binging now it s free on Amazon

    Its always sunny in Philadelphia is a ruddy religion with my boys. I don't think you can get anymore un PC than that but it does take a while to warm to the characters.

    My mate saw 10 minutes of it and just didn't get it and I thought it was loud and obnoxious at first but once its grown on you its very funny.

    Not sure Id say it's better. Its different and the characters develop over the longer run and i like them equally as much.

    IMO curb your enthusiasm is the zenith of us sitcoms but the office is also very good. Tried Arrested Development but 2 series was enough for me and may try parks and recreation next

    Parks and Rec is like The Office, starts off good but gets better and better. Definitely stick with it

    Yes I would agree Parks is a similar format . I would say Parks just edges it for me , and I view the Ron Swanson part , as one of the best comedy characters I've ever seen on TV

    Much better imo, I don’t know if the uk version was just before its time or that the yanks are so crazy it’s almost believable but the American Dwight is ****ing brilliant

    Yes him and Michael Scott are astonishing characters , the moment when Dwight pollaxed someone playing American football in the office, and then handed of that woman in the face was pure comedy.
