Jan. 13th, 2006 12:33 pmThe Office is a great show. I caught up and watched all of the ones from this season recently, and I really like it. Ages ago, I had seen the pilot and it blew almighty chunks. It seemed like a word for word remake of the original Gervais version, only without the funny. But, for some reason I decided to give it a second chance and each episode after the pilot was funnier than the last. Fantastic writing, well made characters (Similar to their BBC counterparts, but different enough to be American), brilliant acting, just add up to a great show. I enjoy shows that allow the actors to glance at the camera and allow the audience into the world with them.
I started reading a website called TelevisionWithoutPity to see what people thought of the show. It was interesting to read from the start of the thread to see how the opinion shifted from hating it before it aired, to having a community of lovers just months after. One thing that perplexes me. There are reams of people who call themselves "Jim-Pam Shippers" And, I realize this means that they want Jim and Pam to be in a relationship. But, where does this phrase come from? I have heard it from people talking about Harry Potter as well. That's why I was surprised to see it here, I thought it was a Harry Potter phrase and not a generic phrase the could be anywhere.
So both Belle and Sebastian and Stereolab are touring this year. Not together. I don't know who Stereolab will be with, but B+S is with The New Pornographers. So, that promises to be an excellent show. I don't know when i will get tickets, especially since the show is not until March. So long to wait. I forget when Stereolab is appearing, but it is a similarly long wait.
Oh. Anyone can ask me anything they like. And, I might even answer.
