Tonight my family and I had dinner with my grandparents. At one point, my parents were trying to think of other shows my grandfather might like (he is obsessed with Everybody Loves Raymond but by now he has seen every episode twice). As my parents listed show after show, Natalia and I quickly tuned it out. Then my grandmother said, "What about that one show I've heard about, Sex And The City?"

Natalia instantly perked up and said, "Did someone say Sesame Street?"

Hehe, no, Natalia, sorry. Not quite.

Today I saw the pilot of the American version of The Office. I've only seen one episode of the British version too, but from my limited perspective, I think the British one was better. Both cover a subject that I'd think would get tired kind of quickly, but if it's awkward, idiotic bosses and kooky inter-office interactions you want, I think the British one pulled it off more successfully. As much as I like Steve Carell, the boss on the British version was definitely more awkward and sleazy :)
