A written summary appears once the title has a score.

Critics, per Wikipedia

Before the show aired, Ricky Gervais acknowledged that there were feelings of hesitation from certain viewers. The first season of The Office was met with a mixed response from critics, with some of them comparing it to the short-lived NBC series Coupling, which was also based on a British version. The New York Daily News called it "so diluted there's little left but muddy water," and USA Today called it a "passable imitation of a miles-better BBC original." A Guardian Unlimited review panned its lack of originality, stating that Steve Carell "just seems to be trying too hard... Maybe in later episodes, when it deviates from Gervais and Merchant's script, he'll come into his own. But right…

    'The Office' was pro-office propaganda whereas 'Severance' is the realistic show about how being at the office makes you go insane

    ‘THE OFFICE’ creator Greg Daniels says that the show doesn’t need a revival. “We don't need to find out what all the characters are doing... It seemed like people liked the ending, and you’re just risking a lot by opening it up again.” (Source: @variety.com)

    funniest part of “you couldn’t do The Office today” is that there’s a show exactly like The Office, set in the same world as The Office, featuring characters from The Office, shot like The Office, with a style of humor like The Office, that aired its first season in 2025 and was renewed for season 2

    Another question the poll raised: What does it mean to have "watched" a TV show? Did you "watch" The Office (US) if you missed one ep in season 6? What if you bailed? IMHO if you have watched enough of a series to know you don't want to watch the rest, you have my permission to say you watched it!
