I love the guy and the courageous left-leaning progressive stances and slandering he’s doing to the you-know-who administration atm.
I think he’s up there with Ruby Setnik, Romesh Ranganathan and Stephen Colbert as my favourite leftist satirist, and his podcast is such a fun time-waster of a audio frequency too.
But I respect your opinion if you aren’t a big fan of his.
Ok compare and contrast the UK office from the US office. Or Have I got news for you or even Graham Norton’s chat show to the US late night equivalents.
It’s been interesting watching the UK SNL and how it’s humour differs from the US equivalent and that sort of live sketch comedy is pretty new to us.
UK SNL is better than the current US one. The Thick Of It was really good.
Ricky Gervais sucks tho, there were like two genuinely funny things in the Uk office and I’ve forgotten one
you mean the UK “The Office” vs the wildly successful version everyone thinks of first when they hear “The Office”?
You mean the UK version with only 14 episodes vs the US version with 201 episodes, over 9 seasons?
You want to compare those?
There’s an entire cultural zeitgeist describing fans of the US version. It’s basically the show that went on to inspire many spinoffs such as Parks&Rec and VEEP.
Millions of people basically out themselves as being “basic af” by describing themselves as fans of “The Office” and literally everyone knows which version they’re referring to. (it’s not the UK version).
Let me demonstrate how inferior the UK version is… most people who watch “The Office” don’t even know there was a UK version…
Those shows? You want to compare them, and your position is that the UK version is better? I’m sorry, but like, objective reality contradicts you. You can like your thing, that is fine, you can even prefer it, sure, that’s your world to live in… but if you’re trying to convince me that it is factually superior… you’re delusional.
I don’t even like “The Office” and I am still telling you that your “opinion” is objectively wrong.
