Thought it was pretty good myself. A bit hit and miss. I think Ricky did a splendid job considering all he had to live up to after the worldwide success of the Office.

I didnt think he was exactly like David Brent thought, which was a relief because i was worried it might end up being a poor 'office 2' type show. I found his character to be Brent like at times, but very different on the whole. They still do play on very awkward moment thought.

Well worth checking out, the good eps are very clever and funny. Was glad to see the show retains some of the warm that was present in the office too.

Haven't seen it, but would love to... and hey, UK DVDs work in aussie machines and my birthday is coming up... *hint* *hint* LOL

But I can't recomend the Ricky Gervais podcast strongly enough...

It is the funniest shit ever! They've made Karl Pilkinton into a demi god via this show!
