It's too bad.

It's too bad to see that this run of The Office is about to end. I must be one of the few who actually enjoys this show. I find myself wanting to reach in to the screen and strangle David or Gareth. Those two characters awkwardness are absolutely hilarious. My only actual question I have is.... Are they going to show the Christmas special to end it?

Yep, [as] will be airing both xmas specials dec. 11th.

I'm not ashamed to say I cried at the end.

Nice.... I'm glad that the fans of this show (that has only seen it on [AS]) get the happy ending. It would have been disappointing to have it end on a sour note they way they did in s2e6. Next BBC comedy they should pick up is the IT Crowd.

This show was too bad.  It is too good to see it end.  Please, no more British comedies....leave them where they deserve to be, on PBS, right after Poirot.

No, what's too bad is your inability to appreciate a great show when you see it.

You obviously seem to care so much about BBC programming to go to great lengths to know PBS's schedule......Maybe you belong on a  PBS message board.

I love the British Office too. I don't really think it belongs on Adult Swim, but I've still enjoyed watching it every week. 

It's about time adult swim learned it's lesson with live action shows, they're never very well liked at all (I still haven't forgiven them for playing saved by the bell, whenever I even think about them playing that I still cringe)

In my opinion I think a show like The Mighty Boosh has a big enough fan base that it does belong somewhere like Adult Swim...... To be honest even the American BBC wont air these wonderful shows. I think that's due to only the type of viewers that flick to that channel. The Office I could imagine though will stop airing after their Christmas episodes...So next year people will have another show to hate on by then.

I really hate the Mighty Boosh, and I wish they'd stop playing it. It wastes time that could be spent playing original programming

Personally, I'm pretty happy to see that it will be completing a full run on [as].

 

This has really been my first exposure to the series, but I've been lucky enough to have watched the series all the way through.  I'm disappointed in myself for having taken so long to stumble upon it.

 

It's been really cool seeing it every Friday night -- right in between American Dad and Squidbillies; it kind of brings [as]'s comedy selections full-circle, but The Office is the centerpiece, in my opinion.

 

I've been really pleased with what they've been putting on these past few years as far as comedy goes.  I mean it was shows like T&E, Xavier, The Mighty Boosh, and Look Around you that more or less drew me back to the network, and The Office has easily been one of the best selections to date -- yet another reason to stick around.

 

And it seems totally out of left-field, too; I wasn't expecting a show like this to come onto [as] and I'd be (pleasantly) surprised if they were to air it again.

 

And I'm very happy to see that the full run consists of the Christmas specials, too.  Those two episodes could essentially have ruined the series for me (honestly, I was half-expecting them to), but I feel like they did nothing but strengthen it.

 

The show's a masterpiece.  I can't stress that enough.

The Mighty Boosh has to be one of THE most original programs....you should just stick with Disney.

I'm just sad that the BBC's Office only had 2 short seasons.....I would be dedicated to watching the show if they made more. The last 2 Christmas episodes really laid the hook in.....It's just a sad but happy way to end it.

Why doesn't ricky Gervais do the intros any more? Yeah I love both the uk and american office. I think the Uk version was better, Because , It had 2 seasons. This show was short but sweet. Like a really long **BLEEP** movie!

You know I asked myself the same thing....the Might Boosh use to have an intro too (maybe only on BBC) like that but they stopped it too for some mysterious reason or another.

The American version started out like a less subtle take on the same material as the original, but it eventually took on an identity of its own.  I prefer the British series, but the American one has its own charms.  I recommend it.  However if you do ever give it a shot, try to see an episode from the second or third season.  The show was in its prime during those periods.  It started to deteriorate after those years.
