Question: How similar are the BBC and NBC versions of The Office? Please don't spoil the show!  I'm still watching the NBC version as they broadcast them, and I don't want to ruin that!  I've always wondered if they are similar to each other based on the characters and storyline.  \n\nAnd if they are similar, how far along are they to where the BBC series ends?  Maybe 50% or 25%?

Answer: The American one is more of a sitcom in feel, it's less bleak and there's no real times when you wince.\n\nThey don't follow the same plots - other than the first one you can't say that this part of the NBC one is based on this part of the BBC one, and knowing what happens in the BBC won't tell you what's going ot happen in the NBC.
