    So, in the last month I have discovered the UK's version of "The Office." Whether on PBS or BBC America, I have seen about 7 or 8 episodes. Absolutely hysterical show this is. I have never seen the US version of the show, but the UK version is great. If you have noy seen it, you need to.

    Does anyone one know how many seasons of the UK version there are? How many episodes are in a season?

    Tom,

    There were two seasons at 6 episodes a piece.

    There was also a series finale special that was either an hour or two (I can't remember).

    I agree that the show is definitely hilarious. I have seen all of the first season of the NBC version and most of the second. It?s comparable to the original (not like the horrible attempt at Coupling they did a few seasons ago).

    I have a hard time picking a favorite between the two since I like both really like both casts. Martin Freeman, who played Tim, is in a pretty funny series called The Robinsons, which is show periodically on BBC America.

    My understanding is that the show finished with the special. Currently, you can get the entire collection bundled together.

    I have not yet seen this show but would love to. I just watched seasons one and two of Arrested Development for the first time and they were hilarious. Need to see the Office next!
