The Office

I just finished watching all of the English version of the office. I think what really makes it better then the American version is the fact that it ended. Had the American office ended just a few seasons ago it would have been much better but it keeps going. But my point here isn't that shows should end when they should end, that's a tired enough argument, it's the uncertainty that I like. English Pam is with English Jim, but they're not married. English Micheal Scott had a successful date, but it's just one date. I assume the writers want to leave with a good taste in your mouth and hunch that everything will work out in the end, but they don't force it.

The American office's story is over. Jim and Pam are married and pregnant. What's left? Should I keep watching because I want to make sure the Dunder-Mifflin is not going under? It's too obvious now.

That's too bad, the jokes are better in the American Version.
