The office is my all time favourite series, and it has serious competition with the likes of suits etc. But it is just one of those shows that 1 becomes inexplicably attached to emotionally, to every concept of it, the characters, even things as simple as the setting. Even after Steve Carell 's departure, it never loses the unique humour and identity that it holds.

BEST SHOW EVER!!! It's funny and it has a nice story line. For example, Jim and Pam's story is one of the best love stories and I thought the wedding episode was classic. I hope I have the same relationship one day. Michael, the boss, is funny and makes the show. Dwight own's a beet farm and Jim always pranks Dwight. All of the characters make the show amazing to watch. They are funny and everyone can relate to their daily activities. I have watched the entire series 5 times now and I am only 9 years old and I think it is the BEST SHOW EVER!!!!!!!!!
