Welcome to a new running post that will look at how British TV programs compare to TV programs over in America. We will try to pair up shows the best we can and then debate over which program is better and then we'll tally up the scores at the end and see which Country has the best TV Programs.

The first program that we'll compare is infact the same show, yep it's the multi award winning The office.

EDD: For you guys who don't know about The Office where have you been? Maybe you was in a hole with Sadam... Ricky Gervais and Stephen Merchant's master piece was of course sold to American TV some Years ago now but what we need to know is who's version is the best?

LARRY: USA, USA, USA! This one's as clear cut as George Bush's stupidity; The Office in America is still running and is currently in it's 6th season! Where as the UK version only ran for 14 episodes including specials

EDD: Hang on now just because it's been going on for longer doesn't mean it's better, as your ex say's it's not about quantity Larry it's all about the quality that's why I'm leaving

LARRY: Ooohh! below the belt. This is a fact: The office USA gets consistent high viewer ratings week in week out and has done for 6 seasons. If Ricky Gervias kept on running the Office would they still have high ratings, well we'll never know so that's a point to the USA, whoooa!

EDD: Fine you can have that. But the UK has a Banker here single funniest moment from both The Office's... Well that easily goes to the UK for Ricky Gervais dance 

 

LARRY: lol yeah that was so funny. Well scores are tied here so far

EDD: Not for long/

LARRY: Yeah your right about that, Office USA has an all-star cast that includes many Hollywood stars that have gone onto appear in many big films that where a success such as 40 Year old Virgin, Transformers, Hangover and many others. Where as if you discount Ricky Gervais and Stephen Merchant none of the other cast really went onto do anything as notable.

EDD: Maybe you do have a cast of big stars but the UK has the most important thing for a TV program! Originality! America just bought our great Idea!

LARRY: Looks like it's harder to separate these two than it was for the banks to stop losing money

EDD: I would call it a tie but I can't have that just like Britney Spears can't have being sane! That's why I'm going to break down the Originality point. First of The Office UK has the Creators of the UK and USA versions, Secondly the Creators wrote the Office UK, third they produce the Office USA and finally they're comedy Geniuses. Game set and match the UK wins  

LARRY: Well we fought as good a battle as Ricky Hatton did against Manny Pacquiao, but in the end a great show lost to a superb show that will go down as one of the UK best ever.
