So, I tend to not enjoy things {tv shows, bands, movies} once they become overly-popular. I don't know, there's just something in me that doesn't like what everyone else likes WHEN everyone else likes it. Except for LOST. Because, well, it's LOST.
Case in point: The Office.
I know the show has been on like 6 years, but B and I just started watching it on Netflix {streamed via Xbox...Genious!} and I'm in love. Seriously, we watched all of seasons 1 and 2 in approximately 4 days. My heart gets all flittery when I see Jim and Pam together. Also, I cannot handle Dwight's antics. B and I have cried while laughing at the show. We both agreed that it's the "realness" of the show. It doesn't feel like we're watching a filmed tv series, it actually feels like we are a fly on the wall in this office.
I could talk about all of the characters, because they are all hilarious and awkward and loveable and outrageous! I spent an hour last night watching the bloopers on Youtube and I was laughing outloud. I will say that I love being able to watch episode after episode with no commercials.
I think it's safe to say I'm a fan.
You should be too!
Great choice! Lee got me hooked the weekend we got back from our honeymoon and we haven't stopped watching yet. Seriously one of the funniest shows out there! Oh, and Jim and Pam are definitely my fave :)
ReplyDeletewe are big fans. We got hooked during season 2 because we were at a friends house for the weekend (before we had kids) and watched all of season 1. I know what you mean about not wanting to jump on board (i don't watch Lost) but this is one you don't want to miss out on especially if you have ever worked in an "office setting". i swear i have worked with a Dwight and a Tobby!
ReplyDeletewe are such Office dorks we have tee shirts!
