The main one being that the writers simply had no idea where to take the show after four successful seasons and ended up spinning wildly out of control with contrived plots, useless twists and characters that go nowhere. Chief among them, Ed Helms as Andy, who has never been that good to begin with but is now intolerable to watch. They have sucked all the life out of Jim and Pam's relationship. Michael is an empty shell. Ryan keeps popping up for no reason at all, other than B.J. Novak appears to write himself back into the script from time to time. The show has long suffered from too many characters. Introducing Idris Elba didn't help either, nor did throwing in Erin as the new receptionist while Michael tries to start up a paper company of his own, inexplicably managing to lure Pam away from the office. There are still quite a few good laughs, but even Dwight seems unsure where all this is going. The confidence that had previously sustained him is gone, as he tries to figure out how to appeal to the temporary branch manager in Charles Minor.

I don't even know why Idris Elba would take on a role like this. It doesn't suit him at all, and he only sticks around for a handful of episodes. Definitely a season to skip over.… Expand

What an amazing 9 year journey - I feel like I really grew with this characters as they all matured and learned to seize their destiny, without ever losing their humorous and sarcastic selves in the process. Just like Dilbert and other ironic platforms, The Office pokes fun at corporate culture while imparting wisdom and warnings. The number of times the core crew reinvents themselves is quite heartening. I was worried in season 7 when a foundational character left, but the show carried on gracefully and ended on a nostalgic whimsical and harmonized wrap up in season 9. A truly perfect run, not a single season was dull or disengaged. And like many say, the series finale was emotional and resonant, beautifully wrapping up 9 years of themes.… Expand

The U.S. VERSION



The Office is hands down one of the greatest shows to ever exist. Whether it is the great comedy from Michael Scott or the romance story between Pam and Jim. The Office has a place in anyone's heart!

The Office is my favorite show. I personally love this show but I will try and look at this from another view with no bias to give it a proper review. The series itself goes on for nine seasons which means it has low points which will hurt its overall product. The first season of the show, in my opinion, was one of the worst seasons. First, the first season was only 6 episodes. Secondly, no one really loved the Michael character so they actually changed him quite a bit. Michael started out more mean in the beginning of the series but changed him to be more lighthearted.

After season one the show really starts to hit its stride. From season two to season seven the show is at its prime. The episodes are well thought out and the comedy of the show is hilarious. Then...

The main character Michael Scott played by Steve Carrell leaves the show towards the end of season seven. This tremendously hurt the show with viewers refusing to watch it. I believe the final two seasons weren’t that bad and actually added more to the story than the first seven seasons. The show did lose a lot of humor though which is really important for a comedy series. As much as I love this show I know the final seasons weren’t that great.

If you wish to watch the show you can watch reruns on many TV stations. Also, if you have Netflix you watch the entire series. The monthly cost for Netflix starts at just $9.

I would recommend this to most people honestly. I would say anyone over the age of 13 would love this show.

“You should never settle for who you are.” -Michael Scott
FINAL VERDICT: 8/10… Expand

Do You Hate Your Boss?

Michael Scott, played by Steve Carell, said, “Would I rather be feared or loved? Easy. Both. I want people to be afraid of how much they love me,” and everyone loved him. Even if he was making parkour videos in theDo You Hate Your Boss?

Michael Scott, played by Steve Carell, said, “Would I rather be feared or loved? Easy. Both. I want people to be afraid of how much they love me,” and everyone loved him. Even if he was making parkour videos in the parking lot or burning his foot on a George Foreman grill, everyone loved him, except for Toby maybe. The Office is a hilarious comedy with many heartfelt moments. Usually, the audience has a favorite character when watching a show. In this case, most people would say Michael is their favorite. However, many fans have other favorites. A poll from Cinema Blend, (https://tinyurl.com/sal86mf) ranks favorite characters. The top five spots go to Pam Beesly, Creed Bratton, Jim Halpert, Dwight Shrute, and number one, of course, Michael Scott. This show is perfect for teenagers and adults. This would not be recommended for children, as they would not understand the humor. The Office is available on Netflix, iTunes, Youtube and Amazon Prime. iTunes, Youtube, and Amazon Prime have The Office able to rent, which would be the best deal at around $1.99. Netflix would be the best option if the audience plans to watch other shows as well. Netflix has three subscription levels at $8.99, $12.99 and $15.99. The most expensive option would be buying the DVD’s for $49.99 off of Amazon. Though it is the most expensive streaming option, the DVD’s would last forever and it is a one time purchase
This show deserves a 5 out of 5 stars because of the layout of the series. No matter the audience’s favorite character, each episode is different and focuses on a different character. This way, there isn’t a character who the whole series is about. It is spread evenly throughout the series. There are episodes where a certain character might not be as liked as other episodes. However, with every episode being different, every character is liked at some point. Therefore, everyone should watch The Office because it is different than any other show.… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Some things just deserve a straight 10/10 and the Office is one of them. I have rewatched all of the episodes in order at least 6-8 times all the way through over the last 6 years and I'm planning to binge them all again real soon! Laugh every single time I see them, the characters and casting is unbelievable, it's hilarious, relatable and so so sooo binge-worthy! my one complaint is literally I think they should of stopped at season 8.. once Steve Carell left at the end of season 7 it took a bit of a nosedive in quality. Personally, after Micheal left at the end of season 7 I would have done 1 more season just for us to see who became the next manager, the relationship tie-ups and ended it perfectly with the Dwight marriage episode at the end of season 8 with him also becoming a manager after Andy (the season would of been about 5-8 episodes longer than the other seasons to fit this in) but even though it went a couple of seasons too long and took a couple of unfunny detours to get to the final conclusions of the show it still ended well and seasons post 7 are still watchable they just don't hit the heights they once did and a lot of the characters have to "over act" and heighten their personalities to a slightly unbelievable level to compensate for Steve Carell's absence and the hole it left. I think most Office fans will turn you that though it's nothing new or a brand new insight but has to be said when reviewing all of them. but overall this is still 10/10 comedy I hold dear to my heart and think ANY comedy fan should give a try (though the first season was a little bit of misrepresentation I would completely skip it as it feels like a pilot season)

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Honestly I don't have much to say about this show, in my opinion it's probably one of the most overrated shows ever (even more than Friends). Is it objectively bad? No!! Of course not! However it's EXTREMELY overrated. I do agree with some people that if you like Brooklyn 99 then you'll definitely like this show, I can understand that. However if you're a normal person like me then you would walk into this show not expecting much and only returned little. It's a good "white noise" show you put on in the other room so it doesn't seem like you're alone in the house or a show you put on for your dog while you're at work but honestly that's all I can think. This show definitely can be funny and it has been funny before and it does yet have it's moments but the show itself is not interesting or that generally funny, it only just has it's moments.

Michael Scott is truly one of the most memorable characters ever, but probably for some of the wrong reasons. The Dinner Party is one of my favorite episodes. It's a great example of how uniqe the Office is. No other episode of any TV show I've experienced has the level of hilariously awkward momdents that the Office has, especially in this episode. The best things about the Office are it's unique yet somewhat immature sense of humour, similar to that found in a 12 yo boy, it's extremely meaningful moments that will make you cry, and awkward moments that can be stressful to watch, but you become so wrapped up in the characters and the world that you can overlook these.

Even in the later seasons when I feel there were some weaker episodes, it was still funny. But my biggest problem is the Jim & Pam ark.
