I once had a boss like Brent. Same hair, same beard, same age, always arsing around, cracking jokes and trying to be funny. He even said he was more of an entertainer than a boss. This was about a year before The Office came out. When it did and all his staff were laughing at him, he failed to see the connection.

Couldn't agree more, Merchant was such a big part of The Office and Extras. Gervais on his own doesn't really excel. I found Afterlife season 1 quite forced and from what I hear the David Brent movie wasn't that great. Merchant was obviously invaluable to the writing, he pulled Gervais back when it was necessary.

what I find most interesting about this show is how people interpret the characters so differently. Some see Brent as self serving, ignorant, egotistical others are more sympathetic, see him as just wanting to be liked etc. Also the Neil arc is interesting, how in earlier episodes he seems quite fair, charming, but later picks at David, mocking him with Chris Finch. Was that just Neil having enough of Brent's antics or was he enjoying the fall from grace? I don't see Lee as a bad guy either, in fact he was pretty patient around the fact Tim was after his girlfriend, I just thought he wasn't the right fit for Dawn, he was just a bloke, well meaning enough, but some make him the villain. Its pretty well done, there's no real answer, hero or villain, just a lot of grey areas. I dont think anyone was the real hero of the show personally, not even Tim who seemed to get joy from mocking a person that wasn't as socially aware or smart as he was. Just a great piece off work all round, ageless.

@TheRandomestRedHead 6 ай бұрын

I haven't had this verified, but I read somewhere that Ricky and Stephen's goal was always to make Lee seem like a perfectly fine guy, but just through him being out of focus and only ever showing his reactions to Tim's advances on Dawn, it ended up with Tim looking like the obvious choice to the audience. Supposedly it was never meant to be such an easy decision.

I remember flicking through the channels when this was first on and skipped over The Office as it looked like a documentary. That's how realistic the filming is.

Absolutely. First time I saw it I thought it was a documentary, until my dad said no, it's actually a comedy... then I was totally hooked.

3:28 I appreciate this particular scene where the camera pans on Brent's face, capturing the range of disappointed faces. This moment seems especially poignant for Brent, given that his sense of humor is a point of pride for him. While he may sometimes overestimate his knowledge, he's willing to concede in an argument. However, when it comes to humor, he genuinely believes he excels, often taking credit for the office banter. The revelation that Neil is now considered the funniest in the room appears to deal a blow to Brent's ego, evident in this particular scene.

What I like about it is, the quality of their jokes are basically the same, but Neil gets the tone right for a workplace, but Brent is needy and trying too hard.

I'm not a BBC fan but The Office and The Inbetweeners are two of the best shows they have done in the last 20 years, sadly they can't do it anymore, 14 episodes done with half penny and the results were astonishing the writing , the acting , everything , this was what BBC was good at , reflecting British idiosyncrasy. Thank you Rick, Steve and all the ppl at The Office for the good times and for encapsulating a special moment in time .

The Inbetweeners was E4 (Channel 4), not BBC. I agree both are great!

@@dave_clarke Thanks for point it out, I saw Inbetweeners at their time before I moved to Uk , I saw it in Spain and by that time I ha no idea of British channels, not much different from today, to be honest, now that you say yes I remember that when I came in 2011 I mostly watched ITV4 and BBC 4 the music documentaries of BBC 4 at night but gradually I disconnected from BBC totally first and ITV4 followed, I even forget that I use to like ITV4 a lot, much more than BBC. It's kind of sad that their offer is not enough attractive to me anymore, I hope things change for better in the future. Thanks for your comment, it took me to the memory lane for a second, have a lovely day.
