Compared to the American remake, this British version is slightly more restrained and has great assets in the form of Martin Freeman and a toned-down Ricky Gervais. However, I found the rest of the cast better in the US version. The humor is surprisingly in a similar vein in both versions, but the American relies more on gags, especially later on in the series. Which is probably due to the greater number of episodes. But both versions work pretty well.

This has been the most successful British television export since Red Dwarf. It is a departure from classic sitcom productions, in a way an experiment that contradicts the classic exaggerated situational comedy in favor of realistic acting and has humor that relies more on the absurdity of minor everyday work conflicts and character nuances of employees at a small company. Each of us has probably encountered similar types of people to the characters in the series to some extent in life, and we can insert our own specific names and faces as the characters of the show. It is difficult to describe what exactly the tremendous success and response is based on, but thanks to its originality, the series has excelled practically on all continents and in various cultures. A self-centered arrogant boss, an ambitious career climber, a dim-witted office girl, a timid underdog, and several other types of characters can entertain the viewer with a series of seemingly trivial incidents if they embrace the rules set by the creators of the series. Overall impression: 90%.

The first episode is a bit of a start-up, but from the second one on, The Office bites into you and doesn't let go. It is absurd that you can laugh at situations that you yourself experience almost daily. But the whole series is absurd, isn’t it? No? Awkwardness has never been so funny.

I've been avoiding this series for quite some time, but I guess now is the right time to give it a watch. I must admit that the series is fundamentally very original, and Ricky Gervais and Stephen Merchant have created something that is not often seen. On the other hand, a different style of humor resonates more with me, and I didn’t always enjoy this. Still, David Brent is a character you won't forget.
