Seriously Funny TV: The Office

For the first time since Seinfeld went off the air, there is a TV show so good that I actually look forward to watching it each week. It is NBC's The Office, and after two hilarious episodes, it's theirs to lose. Apparently it's an American remake of the British show of the same name, which Joel Spolsky recommended last year. I haven't seen that original British show yet, but I still plan to.

In the meantime, I'm going to be careful not to miss Steve Carrell, who plays the boss, each week. He's the guy that played "Achorman" weatherman Brick Tamlan, as well as Edgar on Julia Louis-Dreyfus's sadly short-lived show "Ellie".

And it's on tonight, Tuesday night, so do yourself a favor.
