View Full Version : Who watched the office then?
Maudlin December 30, 2003, 03:39 AM Gervais is a genius. The Office, Pheonix Nights and Partridge are the greatest British comedies of our generation.
I even cried when Dawn and Tim hooked up, a grown man of twenty-five. Soft khunt eh? It's Bambi all over again...

I thought the first episode was a bit of a let down but the second one was superb !
I shed a tear at that happy ending Great stuff
Bluenose December 30, 2003, 01:49 PM Xmas telly was such a let-down that, for me, 'The Office' was the best thing to watch. I thought there was too much David Brent and not enough Gareth. Although, I think Gervais is too "tongue in cheek" not to be a little arrogant like Brent, which could explain why there was a bit of a Brent overload.
My lips did quiver at the ending with Tim and Dawn, though. I must have been in a soppy mood. Mind you, I thought the Brent "happy ending" with his bird was a bit unlikely.
Am I reading too much into this, do you think?

Goodness sake ! just say if you liked it or not ya numpty.
There is no need to start knitting a jumper you know
My fave thing was "The Filth And The Fury". That was a tad before Chrimbo but when you have to work as hard as I do over the festive period it has to count !
Oh...and "Amilie" was on which I have taped but not yet watched...and "Kes"..and a few episodes of "Porridge"...and "Iris" was a great filum.

I agree, the first episode was a bit crap although it did improve as it went on. The second episode was top draw. And you'd have to be a heartless bastard not to shed a tear at Tim and Dawn's getting together.
Librarian on Fire December 30, 2003, 06:57 PM Oh that's spoiled it all for me. It's going to be screened overhere soon(ish), probably Easter knowing my luck. I liked Tim the best. I bet he has a copy of Hatful of Hollow stashed away at home.
All we got on the telly was "The Railway Children", again. Tonight it's the Royal Performance. Go TVNZ you good thing.

She popped up in "Red Dwarf" on BBC2 the other night as well. And something of mine popped up too! ;o)
