I like it better than The Office.

In fact, the US Office has evolved much better than the Brit one till the last time I saw it (circa Season 4).

But Extras has that cutting edge about it.
 
Nah, it's excellent, but slightly more watered down.

The US version of The Office is excellent in it's own right, but it's just a more obvious show altogether.
 
I thought Extras was very good...However it did expose the fact that Gervais can only play one character
 
Extras is quite funny but the Office (UK) is a masterpiece.

I've seen bits of the US Office and it is quite amusing but nowhere near as well made.
 
Brilliant show.

The characters felt contrived and totally unnatural. Perhaps the actors were overacting. Who knows eh.
 
"Oh feck off! I'm Clive Owen, thats mental!"

Nothing will come close to Office (uk) but Extras is also a brilliant series, one trick pony he may be but he could play the same character in every movie/series until he is done and they will still be excellent.
 
feck I love this show, just finished going through the series again a couple of weeks ago. It's just so brilliant how all the famous people are essentially taking the piss out of themselves.
 
Found Extras a bit too smug and pretentious to be loved. The writing can also seem clunky. It's a decent enough show though.

The Office was a masterpiece.
 
i didnt think extras was anywhere near as good as the office, extras wasnt particuarly memorable to me
