    There's so many details the show adds with its mockumentary style. Like how Bob Vance is fully aware of the cameras so he always introduces himself, even to people that already know him as "Bob Vance: Vance Refrigeration" because he's trying to get free advertising.

    this vid reminded me of when pam suspected dwight and angela were dating and she told the cameraman to let her know if he saw anything that pointed to them having a relationship. and then the camera panned over to angela eating the candy bar dwight got from the vending machine earlier. i love how the cameraman showed pam while not actually saying anything. truly genius.

      Also in the one on one interviews, all characters have the office in the background except for Jim, who has the window behind him instead. This was to signify he had something bigger to do, and when Pam and Jim got together, she began sitting on that side too

      Yes! I know some people are going to hate me this, but when I first started watching the office (a few years ago), I started at season 6. Now I realize it was a huge mistake, but I watched until season 9. Then I went back to season 1 and watched until season 9. This took some time, so by the time I got to season 6 I forgot some of what happened. The fact I knew it got better got me through the boring first and second season.

    The Office changed the very way we think and behave. I have definitely done eye-shots to a non-existant camera, thought about the camera zooming in on my face to catch an expression showing that I didn't mean what I just said. I do this without really thinking about it; it just comes naturally. Granted, I also think about things like, what fan debates would look like if my life were a show, who they'd ship, etc. But I can't be the only person who does that.

    I’m a Brit who was very much “coming of age” when the original Office aired (I was 18 at the shows close in 2003). As such I’m a huge fan of the original version and absolutely and unashamedly believe it to be a genius. As such I didn’t watch the US version for years and when I watched the first series of it I HATED it, just felt it was a bad copy of something that was so good. But, as much as it pains me to say now, after persisting with it a couple of years ago I love it now. It’s a completely different beast to its British parent, but that’s okay; I’ve come to appreciate it as something different and equally great. And this version is more optimistic and feel-good and even as a miserable Londoner, I can appreciate that and see that that has its place.

  • @Otome_chan311
    @Otome_chan311 4 ปีที่แล้ว +9

    what made the office so great is that it *felt* real, like a real documentary. Lots of mockumentaries just throw the documentary thing out the window and use it as an excuse and a framing style, rather than as an actual attempt to make you believe it was a documentary. It was genuinely hard for me to tell if the office was actual real people doing real things, or if they were all actors. And that's what made it so amazing. Even if there was "problems" or things that weren't exactly entertaining, or just weird additions; they were all very genuine in feeling. And the way the film crew interacts with the actors, how the cameras move, where they're placed, etc. all added to that feeling.

    I think the reason the British one was so perfect is that it was so realistic in every way. Watch any fly on the wall documentary from that time (Airport, for example) and The Office captures the same feeling and aura perfectly. The American version felt like a comedy series, The Office felt real. Too real, at times. It is a masterpiece and it wrote the rulebook.

      I’d like to see a Parks and Rec vs The Office comparison. They seem similar in a lot of ways, but different in others.

      Bryce Pursell the person that played Dwight’s cousin Mose, co-created Parks and Rec, that’s why they are similar.

      The Office (UK) and TPB were broadcast the same year but the format had already been used on British TV (at least in part) in the 90's with shows like The Day Today and Brass Eye. Then later in Marion & Geoff the year before TPB and The Office.
