I’ve seen people using “that’s what she said” in a very serious setting, as a way to say “good point/touché”. They had no idea it was from the Office.

    If you go into the US office expecting more of the UK office, you will be disappointed.
    The first season is the closest to the original, but not great.
    Then it found it’s own flavour from season 2 onwards.

    Might be worth dipping your toes into a random episode in season 2 or 3. If you go in without prejudice or expectations, you might discover it’s charm.

    I find that a lot with US series. Season 1 is “see what sticks” and the rest of the seasons get their groove.

      Thanks but I doubt that I’ll ever dip my toe in again. Due to Reddit consistently praising “Threat Level Midnight”, a few years ago I gave it a shot. It left me wondering just what the hell the attraction is. I just can’t stand it, and I can’t stand Carrel’s character, or maybe him in general. Having said that I have seen him in a couple of movies where he wasn’t playing the goof and it was fine. Each to their own, and there’s plenty to keep us all entertained out there these days. Peace and love.
