Art Sandusky 0 Report post Posted November 21, 2006 Why is this weird looking bespectacled guy occupying so many sigs/avatars? I mean, I know the origin, but every time I've seen TSM do this with any character from pop culture I would discover that it sucked. What makes this different? Sell me on this idea, O great and powerful internets. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Craig Th 0 Report post Posted November 22, 2006 How can I explain Dwight... - He lives on a beet farm. - He doesn't get sick. - He was Assitant Regional Manager. I mean Assitant to the Regional Manager. - He loves Michael Scott. - He is amazing at paintball. - He is a Volunteer Deputy Sheriff. - He is banging a tight Christain. - And he loves Michael Scott.

Failed Bridge 0 Report post Posted November 22, 2006 Prime Time TV has been dead to me since Seinfeld went off the air. If it weren't for Czech, my uncle and DVD sets then I wouldn't know the wonders of Arrested Development or 24. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
EricMM 0 Report post Posted November 22, 2006 Randy playing Cindi Lauper was genius. But Dwight has had so many fantastic moments, I wouldn't want to have to pick! Future Dwight > Future Hiro Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dobbs 3K 0 Report post Posted November 22, 2006 Randy is entertaining, but Dwight has that insane dork vibe that a lot of people on the internet identify with, more so than Randy's good hearted retard schtick. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Giuseppe Zangara 0 Report post Posted November 23, 2006 See, My Name Is Earl fuckin' rules. Why haven't more people taken to that? I watched this once. Terrible. Never seen either version of The Office. I've been told I'd enjoy them both, so maybe one day. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MarvinisaLunatic 0 Report post Posted November 23, 2006 I dont know how anyone can find the Office even remotely entertaining let alone actually somewhat funny. If given a choice between jabbing forks in both my eyes for a half an hour or watching the Office, Id watch the office..but after about 5 minutes Id be begging for the forks.

Guest Paul Report post Posted November 23, 2006 I feel the same as Marvin, only in reverse. My Name is Earl was good...for about 3 episodes...then, for me it went in the shitter. The Office however, is the only 30 minute sitcom that has caught my attention as "must see" since Seinfeld. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PLAGIARISM! 0 Report post Posted November 23, 2006 Obviously i found the American version kind of embarassing, but it was ok in itself. I intensely disliked both My Name Is Earl and Arrested Development. Curb Your Enthusiasm is the last US comedy I really enjoyed. That pretty much includes movies as well, as I don't get the appeal of Ferrell, Black et al either. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Paul Report post Posted November 23, 2006 Yes, Yes. Curb rules. Everyone that thinks otherwise is a fucking moron. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MarvinisaLunatic 0 Report post Posted November 23, 2006 Im liking Arrested Development more and more as the first season progressed. HDNet is running a season 1 marathon tomorrow and aired the last episode of season 1 tonight. Ive never seen Curb Your Enthusiasm since I don get HBO.

bob_barron 0 Report post Posted November 23, 2006 Dwight: Why tip someone for a job I'm capable of doing myself? I can deliver food. I can drive a taxi. I can, and do, cut my own hair. I did however, tip my urologist, because I am unable to pulverize my own kidney stones Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Youth N Asia 0 Report post Posted November 23, 2006 The original Office is a quick watch. Only 16 episodes and a 90 minute special to end the series. And in the first episode you'll see that the US version is almost an exact duplicate of the BBC's first episode. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
