amberfocusDay 05 A show you hate
Before last year I would have said Seinfield, but it was replaced by something that wasn't even a comedy, even though it's billed as one. The Office (US Version). I do not get this show's appeal. At all. It's not even funny. It's uncomfortably awful. I watched the first eighteen episodes last year, hoping to force myself through it to get to the supposed "good stuff." But sorry, the good stuff never came. The main character made me want to put forks in my eyes and If I'd had to sit through anymore of his rotten behavior, I probably would have. I know you're supposed to dislike the character, but this guy is...loathsome. He has no redeeming qualities whatsoever. AND I was promised some epic love story, but basically all I ever saw was a sad droopy guy in love with some girl who was already in a relationship. True, she was in a relationship with an ass, but you just don't pursue someone who is in a committed relationship. I do not understand how this show ever made it past the pilot, let alone into its sixth season. It's just...bad. Bad writing. Bad acting. Bad characters you can't respect, let alone fall in love with. And a total waste of film.
