My sentiments exactly. Brits can cry all they want. I enjoyed the original version immensely on many artistic levels, but comedically, yes, the NBC show blows the Gervais version out of the water. And you're so right about the second season and forward. <(& it) seems I mentioned this all previously.>
As a side note, Ricky Gervais introduced the SNL Digital Short on last week's new Saturday Night Live episode hosted by Steve Carell. It was
the highlight of the broadcast and featured a pretty hysterical mock-Japanese "original" version of "The Office."
