I "hear" about how great The Office is everywhere I turn. Football articles on the internet say The Office is better than Seinfeld! But it wasn't until my own brother talked to me about the hilariousness of it that I added it to my Netflix queue. Disc 1 has 6 episodes, and I watched 4 1/3 of them before sealing it back in the envelope and moving on. Oh. My. Goodness. Awful. AWFUL! Quite possibly the most UNfunny thing I've ever seen! What complete and utter crap!! I'll assume that there are some bright moments somewhere in 3+ seasons of episodes and give it 2*, but really, what I saw only deserved 1*.
Moving on and hoping for something, ANYTHING, to wash the bad taste from my mouth, I put in Staci's rental, Crazy/Beautiful. Strike 2! Ugh... another 2* rating. I must say, I liked the ending though.
The next day we went with a sure thing, CSI. I think both Staci and I's opinion of CSI has been well documented.
Tonight we're watching Amazing Grace, and it's really quite good. 3.5* - 4*. I don't really know what to say about it other than "watch it." And if you do happen to take the advise of the only person on the planet that thinks The Office sucks, please let me know what you think about it. :-)

Sorry dude, I believe you're off the reservation with this one. The Office is quite humorous. Granted there are times that it takes a mighty swing at a joke and wiffs big, but more often than not, they get a hit and sometimes, it's a home run! :)
It stinks you don't like it! Oh well.
So have you seen Scrubs? What do you think of that show???

Did you get the decoder? Just like 3D shows need 3D glasses, you have to have a decoder called a sense of humor to watch the office! The humor is so dry I fall off my chair laughing every time I watch it. Mary and I have to pause it all the time to regain control. I've almost past out before. You didn't get the British version did you? You need the one with Steve Carrell in it. Try that "Mindge!"
