Editorial Reviews

Daily Show alumnus Steve Carell, a master of deadpan comedy, was the ideal choice to play clueless, obnoxious office manager Michael Scott in this Americanized version of the popular BBC mockumentary, and his comedic gifts are readily apparent in the 22 half-hour episodes of the 2005-6 season. The Office, shot documentary-style with no laugh track, takes place in the Scranton facility of Dunder-Mifflin, a supplier of paper products. Michael's employees include nerdy know-it-all and shameless suck-up Dwight (Rainn Wilson), easily cowed receptionist Pam (Jenna Fischer), and capable but restrained Jim (John Krasinski), who not-so-secretly lusts after the engaged receptionist. Season 2 includes occasional guest turns by David Koechner, playing Michael's best friend Todd Packer, and Melora Hardin, as Dunder-Mifflin executive Jan Levinson. Although many of the laughs still come from the efforts of Carell's character to be seen as hip and easy to work for, The Office is definitely an ensemble show, and the best episodes are those in which the entire cast shines. One of these, "The Fire," finds the staff cooling its collective heels in the parking lot while a blaze rages upstairs. To pass the time Jim suggests a seemingly harmless game that eventually elicits a lot more personal info than some would like to know. Our 2005-6 favorite, "Christmas Party," is a tour de force in which Michael almost single-handedly dampens the staff's holiday spirit by turning the annual gift-giving ceremony into a game of "Yankee Swap," which results in personalized presents being given out randomly to hysterically inappropriate recipients. The resulting ill will makes a shambles of the party, and as usual, Michael doesn't understand what went wrong. A superbly written and brilliantly acted series that doesn't rely on potty humor, sexual innuendo, or the assorted puerilities typically found in today's sitcoms, The Office is a delight.

January 04, 2009: One of the best Office seasons, sure to make you laugh out loud, and all that jazz. It's a fantastic show. Nothing brightens up a person's day like a that's what she said joke. Don't know what that is? Then you're missing out. The Office is the greatest show to hit network TV (and beyond). That's also a fact. So... WATCH IT!

I Also Recommend: ER - Season 1, The Art Game Book.

March 07, 2007: This show is absolutely great. The best episode is 'the injury,' where Michael gets his foot clamped in a George Forman grill. I guarantee it will make you laugh. The absecense of a laugh track is a necessary addition to the show, as the producers are not telling you when to laugh and what to laugh at.
