>I have not seen it but have heard the show is pretty good. The original on the BBC with Ricky Gervais was so good I thought the American version would be just a schlock ripoff, but apparently not. I bet they have softened it up a bit. The British version was funny but also corrosively cynical.
I've seen both and like both equally. The UK version doesn't attempt to make their characters as likeable and they are more cartoonish. The US version gives every character more depth and at least occassionly shows a likeable side.
