The Office (UK series)/YMMV
- Alternate Character Interpretation: Brent is either inherently a complete jackass with a few redeeming qualities or a decent bloke who lets the fact that he's being put on television go to his head with disastrous consequences.
- Crowning Moment of Awesome: David telling Chris Finch off in the finale.
- Crowning Moment of Heartwarming: Dawn finally dumping Lee and kissing Tim in the finale.
- Crowning Music of Awesome: "Free Love Freeway"
- Ensemble Darkhorse: Keith.
- Tear Jerker: The way it ends, surprisingly. David Brent makes a complete turnaround.
- Values Dissonance: The UK's more relaxed view of alcohol is apparent when comparing the two shows. One UK episode involves the boss David Brent taking all of his new employees out for quite a few beers in the middle of the workday, which wouldn't fly in most American companies. By contrast, nearly every time alcohol is introduced to the American office, there are serious consequences: Pam throws herself at Jim despite being engaged, Roy smashes up a bar, Michael and Jan get in a fight where the cops get called, and Meredith sets her hair on fire.
- The Woobie: Tim, and even David at one stage.
