Review of The Office

The Office (2001–2003)
Brilliant but So Short!
7 May 2014
OMG, looking at the episode listing it's hard to believe this show lasted only two seasons of 14 episodes. That's not even one season of the American version that lasted 9 seasons. I think that shows the difference between the American and British ways of doing television. American writers, producers, and actors are hard working to a fault. The office was the show that would not die long after it should have, squeezing every dollar out of the ratings. While the British show was a bit lazy. How could Gervais have cut such a classic so short? One of the funniest sitcoms of all time David Brent is one of the great comedy characters. I don't think Gervais will ever match the heights of genius of this. Also a great supporting cast.
