Question about NBC's version of "The Office"

[MartyMcFly3]

Is the theme to it an actual song or just one made for the show? It's catchy.

I'll admit I was skeptical about this show (loved the BBC version) but I've found myself laughing during parts of it. There could be a lot worse on TV.

aren't all the jokes exactly the same as the bbc version?

I wouldn't know, I've never seen it so it's all new to me. :thumbsup:

BBC Version > American Version

1st Ep > Last night's episode > * > 2nd Ep

I dont know about the theme song, I love it too though.

Obviously, but it's still a decent remake of it. Better than I thought it would be at least.

For the people that don't have the BBC version shoved up their ass, the American version is pretty darn funny.

Agreed. When Jim threw the ice cream sandwich at Dwight who was locked in his workspace/office, I was cracking up. That and the whole making up diseases/Kevin's revealed disease. Good comedy.

Anyone know anything about this theme?

Hot dog fingers...

And the jokes are different between both shows, the premises are the same tho, like the assistant and his workspace with different jokes in between, I also think Garreth (from BBC) pulls of the role of a tool better than the american guy.

Theme is a real song done by Ozzy

 

[MartyMcFly3]

The theme to the BBC version is "Handbags And Gladrags"

Count Choculitis had me laughing.

I have to agree. I was dissapointed with last night's episode (compared to the first two).

The 2nd one was one of the funniest episode of any show i've ever seen

Edit: i still liked the episode regardless.

Hahaha, you know i take it back, last night's episode was better than the first episode now that i think about it:

"if you mean inverted vaginas, i need that coverage"
"you had a historectimy, you don't have a vagina"
"no, i don't have a uterus. i still have a vagina"

Never seen the BBC version, but the American version blows.
