ginger 22512 desperate attention whore postings DAW Level: "Playboy Centerfold" 10-21-04, 01:15 PM (EST) ""The Office" Special" Here's a link to the San Francisco Chronic Ill's television columnist, who discusses the impending special and describes the entire "Office" series far better than I could. For the love of god, watch this show. http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?file=/chronicle/archive/2004/10/21/DDGP79CFBK1.DTL The Hills Have IceCat. Down here...we all...FLOAT.   Top

"RE: "The Office" Special" I don't have BBC, but I just recently watched both seasons of The Office on DVD and I can't wait for this special to come out! This show is hilarious! One word: GOTHMOG! C0CK!!   Top

ginger 22512 desperate attention whore postings DAW Level: "Playboy Centerfold" 10-25-04, 03:55 PM (EST) 3. "RE: "The Office" Special" I adore it. Lvoed the Special, even the corny ending (which BF hated). Have to caution folks, though-it's a quiet, wry chuckle kind of humor, not a belly laugh type thing. Sort of like Christopher Guest's movies (quasi documentary). "Can we not discuss my dead mother's breasts?" The Hills Have IceCat. Down here...we all...FLOAT.   Top

"RE: "The Office" Special" DH and I bought the two seasons on DVD and loved every second. So cringe-worthy but so hilarious. The special didn't play in Canada. I'm hoping that they'll put it out on DVD. The BBC show Coupling is also out on DVD. I've seen a few episodes and laughed pretty damn hard. Keep your eye on the ball!   Top

ginger 22512 desperate attention whore postings DAW Level: "Playboy Centerfold" 11-11-04, 04:40 PM (EST) 5. "RE: "The Office" Special" I like Coupling, too. Don't know why the US version was so freaking awful, given that the scripts were almost identical. But the original Brit series is a great ensemble cast.   Top

""The Office" 1, 2, @ Special" got them for christmas from my hunny. ohhhhh yeah. 4 disc set. it rules. im telling everyone in Los Angeles to at least rent this show. The american version is gonna suck. know it   Top

magrurry 4 desperate attention whore postings DAW Level: "American Cancer Society Spokesperson" 11-21-04, 11:11 AM (EST) 6. "RE: "The Office" Special" Simply the best "reality" show ever produced. made only more brilliant by the fact that the creators didnt know they had a gem and were keen to quit after 6 episodes. Kudos to whoever it was at BBC2 that changed thier minds. i have seen the special and it is the most fun ive had in a while. nicely wraps up the business of the first two seasons with a nice romantic twist that will make you cheer at the end. i watched it at two in the morning on DVD and rose out of my chair yelling "Yesssss!" at the end. wont give it away, but you will cheer too. am planning on buying the dvd box set but want someone to get it for me for X-Mas.   Top

"RE: "The Office" Special" Just wanted to report that this special has been released on DVD. I should be receiving it from Netflix tomorrow and I can't wait to watch!! A winter creation by the loverly and talented Mon Cherie!   Top

I hope they include the wonderfully AWFUL cover of "If You Don't Know Me By Now." The 8 Days of Slice. Such a smart girl!   Top

SilverStar 6205 desperate attention whore postings DAW Level: "Playboy Centerfold" 12-06-04, 11:50 AM (EST) 11. "Watched it..." LOVED IT! Watched it again. I haven't sent it back to Netflix yet, I just might watch it a 3rd time! I love watching the bonus features too. Ricky Gervais is just hilarious and I am in love with Martin Freeman. I wish I had thought to ask for the series for x-mas! Handcrafted by RollDdice, Inspired by Monstah (who are both truly fabulous) I am not a plonker! Bwahahaha   Top

ginger 22512 desperate attention whore postings DAW Level: "Playboy Centerfold" 12-06-04, 02:52 PM (EST) 12. "RE: Watched it..." In its rich tradition of flogging cash cows to death, I am sure the BBC will present you with AMPLE opportunities to see the series and special again, and again, and again. I never worry about missing episodes of anything on BBC. The 8 Days of Slice. Such a smart girl!   Top

SilverStar 6205 desperate attention whore postings DAW Level: "Playboy Centerfold" 12-06-04, 05:10 PM (EST) 13. "RE: Watched it..." Ah yes, if only I had BBC! My only opportunities to see it are on dvd, as my basic cable doesn't come with BBC. Handcrafted by RollDdice, Inspired by Monstah (who are both truly fabulous)   Top

shakes the clown 3366 desperate attention whore postings DAW Level: "Car Show Celebrity" 01-12-05, 05:40 PM (EST) 15. "Is there anyway to see Season 2 on DVD?" I rented season 1 from Blockbuster and loved it, but they don't have season 2. Then I went to Best Buy and saw that I can buy Season 2, but it is packaged with Season 1 so I would have buy that as well and I really dont want to have to do it. Also, how can I get the Special on DVD? Is it out in that format? ONe last thing...do they replay season 2 and the special on the BBC cause I think I get that channel on my Comcast digital cable? So don't take the simple fact that I think Shakes is godlike to mean that I think he isn't an ass. -Samiam 10/12/04   Top

Shakes, where do you live? cause if you live on the westside, you can go to this video store called "Vidiots" on PICO blvd   Top

ginger 22512 desperate attention whore postings DAW Level: "Playboy Centerfold" 01-13-05, 02:45 PM (EST) 17. "RE: Is there anyway to see Season 2 on DVD?" LAST EDITED ON 01-13-05 AT 02:55 PM (EST) They've replayed the second season and the special a lot on BBC in the past couple of months. Suspect they'll be rerunning them semiannually for years to come. I'll see if I can find out more. ETA link to BBC America.com; it appears episodes are airing tonight and in future. http://bbcamerica.com/genre/comedy_games/the_office/the_office.jsp Let's not discuss my dead mother's breasts. Full stop.   Top

shakes the clown 3366 desperate attention whore postings DAW Level: "Car Show Celebrity" 01-17-05, 03:15 PM (EST) 18. "found it!" I went to Best Buy on Friday and found the second season and special being sold seperately. Bought em both, but now I feel really stupid for not just buying season 1 as well, even though I have already seen it. Finished watching the second season over the weekend...it was great, but not as funny as season 1. Haven't watched the special yet. So don't take the simple fact that I think Shakes is godlike to mean that I think he isn't an ass. -Samiam 10/12/04   Top
