Will Ferrell has played a jackass in almost every film he’s in. Why would you expect anything different in his role on The Office?
If someone is going to fill the shoes of Michael Scott (another blatant jackass), who better to do it than Will Ferrell?
Dwight’s recommendation letter was an excellent scene, and also Michael putting ALL his energy into not actively insulting Toby when says goodbye. And we can all laugh privately at the fact that Rory Flenderson is waiting for Michael in Colorado! LOL!
Also, the UK Office has far more awkward bits in it, for me. Brent comes across as a prick, but actually you end up pitying him and siding with him.
For anyone who hasn’t seen it, it is WELL worth a watch. A pioneering comedy, and you only have to commit for about 14 episodes.

I’d watch it, but I can’t stand Ricky Gervais.

I didn’t, but I don’t think his character fits the show

What cant you stand about Ricky Gervais? He cracks me up, but I have a weird sense of humour.
This is DJHT by the way, I know, I know, I lost a bet.

I love British humor (favorite show of all time is Fawlty Towers), but something about Gevais rubs me the wrong way. I don’t know what it is, but it could be many small factors.

I honestly did not know who he was until about 3 months ago and started watching the Ricky Gervais show on HBO. That is the only thing I have seen him in to be honest.
