The Office - US version

[Greencatfysh]

If people on this thread haven’t seen Parks and Rec then I’m a) jealous as I’d love to discover it again and b) shocked! WATCH IT! Written by the same team as The Office as developed as a related series. I heard an interview with Mike Schur who described it as imagining a world full of the weird characters who inhabit the fictional Scranton.

We've just finished our mammoth rewatch and are now bereft! Don't know what to watch next

My friends have recommended Community to me - I'm saving it for when all of my uni work for the year is done

That’s the show I was missing earlier!! Community is brilliant. I’ve watched it annually for ages and it just gets better with every watch!

Same! I’d love to be able to watch it for the first time all over again. For me The Office is an all time favourite, Parks & Recs is second. Leslie Knope is my spirit animal!

Another vote for Parks and Rec. Same awkward humour as the Office but has its own style

Parks and Rec, Brooklyn 99, or... I have just binge watched the first 5 series of Superstore. IMO Dina is a female Dwight and I love it

Superstore will definitely get added into my annual viewing schedule. I need to track down s6!

Started this in Aug 2020 and finished it Xmas week for the first time, can’t believe I left it so long to watch it is now my favourite TV show of all time. As a 30 year old working in an office who then found herself working from home, it was the perfect show to make me laugh on my lunch break, so many relatable things.

I actually think it’s the most wholesome and satisfying ending to any TV I’ve watched. Now on Parks and Rec, hilarious and defo recommend!

Too many good bits but here’s one of my fave clips not mentioned so far;

 

[Phil Anne Throw Pee]

Meredith is my QUEEN.

 

[SarcasticEllis]

Meredith is my QUEEN.

“Meredith, where are your panties??!”

“Meredith, your boob is out!”

I've been living in a cave for the last 2 decades and just watched it. I'm on season 7.
Dear God.. it's BRILLIANT !

I refused to watch it for years as love the British one, but I dare say I think this one is better!

I agree, refused to watch it until my daughter started and I was sucked in. I think it’s better too!

 

[RubyRu]

Same. Now I watch 1 or 2 episodes each night. Only halfway through season 5

 

[Flossie87]

It's amazing, my husband and I recently finished it. So many brilliant characters.

 

[EmmaJane1985]

Amazing show, I watch it in full once a year and it never gets old.

What are your favourite episodes/scenes?
One that stands out for me is the episode where Michael and Jan have the dinner party, when Michael brings out the bright bar sign and hangs it up I was crying with laughter. So funny
