Anyone actually watch the show?
It followed "Frasier" for two years.
I did and actually liked it because of its odd-ball premise. It also featured a part of American culture that today is completely and utterly ignored by mass media and the general population itself. It's an interesting contrast because back before the Internet era and the cancerous narcissism culture of social media, you could create a TV show about everyday Americans in the smallest of work capacities and make a good series out of it.
Modern sitcoms like "Community", "The Office", "Parks & Recreation", "Two Broke Girls" and "SuperStore" don't really capture this aspect and are more interested in trendy comedy with characters that are caricatures.
THE OFFICE IS ALMOST 20 YEARS OLD NOW...MODERN,LMAO.
shareUS version isn't
shareI TOOK US OFFICE SEASON ONE WITH ME TO MEET MY WIFE IN NEW YORK....17 YEARS AGO.
shareOkay but 17 years ago would have been February 2004 and the U.S. version didn't debut on NBC until March of 2005, which isn't even 16 years yet, but close. So unless you VHS-copied the first season that still would not match your time-line AND if you're referring to the DVD, I'm willing to bet that those didn't hit the market until December 2005. On top of that, the sitcom ran through May 2013 which is approaching 8 years from today. I'd hardly call that ANCIENT
shareOH OK!...16 NOT 17...DAMN IM AN IDIOT!...IT WAS 2005 AND I HAD THE DVD IN TIME TO TAKE IT TO NY IN AUGUST,WHICH IS WHEN I WENT...16 YEARS SINCE ITS DEBUT IS DAMN NEAR 20...ANYWAY...
