I HATE The Office.

Is it just me or does the show seem to get more popular in the years after it went off the air? I remember it being popular when it was on NBC but it wasn’t like Friends or Seinfeld big.
It's not more popular. The rights switch from various streamers and they astroturf it every time it changes hands. With these new streaming companies they only sign old shows for like 1 or 2 years or maybe 5 years. So every couple of years someone else gets the rights to the show and then they promote it like crazy. Every time the rights for The Office change hands they need to mass promote it again. It went from Netflix to NBC a few years ago so they promoted it like crazy.

But The Office is getting a reboot apparently. So expect the promotional blitz to become endless in another year. If they reboot the show with niggers and trannies galore it will be the most promoted show for its entire run. You will not be able to avoid the show even if you've never seen it before. They will have fags and bots spamming memes and trailers of the show everywhere for a straight decade like Star Wars or Marvel.

Yeah that’s the other one, that was before streaming really took over. NBC was know for owning Thursday night for decades (Cosby, Cheers, Seinfeld, Friends) and ended it with The Office. You’re right about the humor being “problematic” for 2023 and beyond. I’m surprised they haven’t pulled certain episodes from streaming yet.
I saw the episode on Comedy Central where the Hispanic guy comes out as gay. I remember there's a scene where Michael uses the terms retard and retarded. They actually bleeped those words out. Gay fucking shit.

The Office, The Wire, Game Of Thrones, F*R*I*E*N*D*S, Grey's Anatomy, Stranger Things

I will never watch these abominations. They want me to watch them. YOU want me to watch them. I just won't do it. I can't care.

I don’t understand why so many die hard fans of the office won’t watch the UK version. They tried to keep Michael Scott similar to David Brent at first but we’re afraid US audiences wouldn’t “get it” because US audiences are stupid. So they made him a big lovable goof and everyone silly.
Personally I just loathe Gervais with every fiber of my being. The US Office had a great run. The criticism of making Michael a loveable oaf instead of a straight up dickhead after a season is fair but that led to amazing episodes like the dinner party, Scott’s Tots (last amazing episode where he fails to deliver his promise of paying for a class of kids’ college if they did well through grade school), and the acting school ones. I believe the UK Office wouldn’t have lasted nearly as long with the same average funniness of the US one. “I only give organs to my real friends.” The Ryan arc going from intern to CEO to intern again was hilarious.

I liked it when I first watched it. But now even at work I see stupid cunts post random gifs from the show and I know for sure if I watch it again I'm going to be annoyed from all the people referencing it constantly. I have probably been through three different companies where I've been subjected to fucking retards posting Office gifs in Slack.

The majority of this forum has only watched 3 TV shows.
No, faggot. We only like three or four shows. But we've watched all of the popular dogshit ones as well. Almost everyone here watched stuff like Game of Thrones or Better Call Saul when they first aired. Almost everyone here was around when South Park was great (first dozen seasons or whatever) before the show turned into a mediocre forgettable mess.

You act like there are more than a handful of shows that can actually be considered true classics. Even Sopranos is no longer truly 'great' when you factor in Many Saints of Newark. What ten or dozen shows are supposed to be all time classics even? Most shows are absolutely worthless. Nothing ends properly like the abortions of the last seasons of Boardwalk Empire or Westworld or the terrible final season of The Wire.

Fist off, calling me a faggot was over the line! Secondly, I couldn't be bothered...Rant to your hearts content, I support you, and you're SOMEONE! You're loved and you're appreciated!
