Anyone Here Ever Seen The British Comedy "The Office" ?
I just bought it on DVD, having never seen a single episode, or even a clip from the show.

But the review on the outside of the box said it was the funniest UK tv show since Monty Python. So I figured why not give it a shot.

2. Brilliant
as the Brits say. Sometimes the accents are tough, though.

Favorite episode: Quiz Night. Priceless.

8. Office Space meets Spinal Tap.
It's a 'mockumentary.'
