the office

Zoomerang96 · 12-30-2005, 12:25 AM

is the best show ever.

every single scene in the british version is classic and memorable.

the us version is also tremendous, and season two has been nothing short of brilliant.

please discuss, and add quotes. now.

anitram · 12-30-2005, 12:28 AM

Haven't seen the US one, but I have the complete British series on DVD. The 2nd season is better than the first, IMO.

MissVelvetDress_75 · 12-30-2005, 12:29 AM

I have only watched on episode of the US version.

I will have to wait for the dvd set to watch it.

I love the English version though.

Zoomerang96 · 12-30-2005, 12:30 AM

i watched all four dvds within two days.

it's so good for the mind.

MissVelvetDress_75 · 12-30-2005, 12:32 AM

you had a lot of time on your hands.

Carek1230 · 12-30-2005, 01:42 AM

This show is hysterical. I have seen both the British and the US.....equally hysterical.

MacHat · 12-30-2005, 02:05 AM

I haven't seen the US version yet, but the British version is genius

.

impy13 · 12-30-2005, 03:02 AM

Every once and again, a call will come through on my mobile from a friend of mine. Each time, she goes:

"You're a cock!"

and hangs up.

Classic.

The Office

Just wait till the Inter-Brits see this and start bashing the US version!

“We go there every Wednesday night, and it’s a fun place, but it’s full of loose women. My own problem with that is venereal disease, which is disabilitating right, especially for a soldier. And it’s irresponsible to the rest of your unit as well, right. You’ve been under attack for days, there’s a soldier down, he’s wounded, gangrene’s setting in, ‘who’s used all the penicillin?’ ‘Oh, Mark Paxon sir, he’s got knobrot of some tart.’”
Gareth (Series 1 Episode 5)

“There are limits to my comedy. There are things that I’ll never laugh at. The handicapped. Because there’s nothing funny about them. Or any deformity. It’s like when you see someone look at a little handicapped and go ‘ooh, look at him, he’s not able-bodied. I am, I’m prejudiced.’ Yeah, well, at least the little handicapped fella is able-minded. Unless he’s not, it’s difficult to tell with the wheelchair ones.”

Tilli · 12-30-2005, 03:06 PM

I love the Brit version

Tim to Gareth: "Did you catch that movie last night, Gaylord Says No?"
Gareth: "No."

The American version is on TV over here I think though I haven't got around to watching it yet.

LMP · 12-30-2005, 04:13 PM

I love both versions but my favorite one is the British one. Gareth and David make me laugh way too hard for my own good. My favorite moments from the British one are when Tim puts the dildo in David's office and he can't turn it off, and the picture below

Various quotes below:

areth: In this room I have special...
Tim: ... needs?
Gareth: No, in this room I am a special...
Tim: ... needs child?
Gareth: No, and that's not even funny.

Gareth: Condoms come in all different flavours nowadays. There's strawberry and curry and that. Do you like curry?

Rowan: Gareth, quick trust exercise, ultimate fantasy?
Gareth: Hmm?
David Brent: We're just doing the ultimate fantasy, we're all doing it.
Gareth: Two lesbians probably, sisters. I'm just watching.
Rowan: OK. Erm. Tim? Do you have one?
Tim: I'd never thought I'd say this, but can I hear more from Gareth please?

hippy · 12-30-2005, 06:06 PM

Gareth: He knows I don't like jelly... I don't trust the way it moves.

"Gareth Keenan Investigates"

Gareth: Hands up, who trusts me?

"Free love on the free love freeway..."

And I love the entire bit with Gareth, Tim, and stapler being dropped out of the window

Zoomerang96 · 12-31-2005, 03:03 PM

what the fuck is up with all the games in this forum?!?!

are people completely incompetent to have discussions on one movie at a time or what?!!?

this is absurd.

i'm gonna do everything to keep these two office threads on top. please keep posting quotes cause they're really funny and make me laugh.

MissVelvetDress_75 · 12-31-2005, 09:49 PM

*bump*

got_edge · 01-01-2006, 01:46 AM

I received the first season of the British version for Christmas

My favorite episode so far is 'Training'

"Lee love Dawn, marriage?"

LMP · 01-01-2006, 12:49 PM

I love when David roleplaying with that one guy on the training day, and he's complaing to the guy playing the hotel clerk

*im paraphrasing*

THERE WAS A RAPE IN MY HOTEL ROOM!

Calluna · 01-02-2006, 12:08 AM

Bear, glad you finally watched them. The Office is classic!

Have you seen The Office Christmas Special too?

PS: I knew you'd seen it because you have been making Office references recently.

hippy · 01-02-2006, 12:22 AM

David: Cause I'm a professional. And professionalism is...... and that's what I want.

David's answering machine: ... Please leave a massage...

Gareth: One word. Two syllables. Demarcation.

David: And now's the time to stop putting Gareth's personal possesions in jelly.

Gareth: I was in the territorial army for 3 years, and you can't muck about there. It's sort of one of the rules.

agreed! yeah, i've seen it all, i got the entire collection special and all.

the special might even be the best part. i love how david kept getting set up with women he obviously was NOT attracted to...he didn't exactly hide it.

i've been catching myself acting a lot more like him lately. probably not a good thing.
