Television has become a very common form of entertainment. There are literally hundreds of channels that a viewer can choose to watch from. These channels have their air time full of television shows that strive to acquire more and more viewers. Some of these shows interest viewers so much that the viewers base their weekly schedule around the air time of these shows. I can say that I have fallen victim to this addiction. Each year the television show that I must watch every week changes but my current television addiction is NBC’s “The Office.”
“The Office,” is filmed as a documentary about a paper company, Dunder Mifflin, that is based in Pennsylvania. The corky office boss, Michael Scott, serves as the tour guide throughout the show. The wide range of personalities that make up “The Office,” bring a lot of drama and humor to the show. From Dwight Schrute, the know-it-all assistant to the regional manager to Kelly Kapoor, the young associate who is in love with Ryan the Intern. There is never a dull moment and the show displays a ridiculous side of office work.
I became addicted to “The Office,” when my college roommate bought the first 3 series of the show on DVD. After watching the show’s pilot episode, I became addicted. I was able to catch up on the past 3 years of the show in a few short hours and now find myself fixated in front of the television every Thursday night at 8. Sometimes I even visit the show’s website, http://www.nbc.com/The_Office/ to read about the upcoming episode.
I believe “The Office,” is successful because viewers can relate to its humorous office environment with a boss who never wants to work and continuous office romances. My favorite office couple to follow on the show is Pam and Jim. Their relationship is very complex and the show’s writers keep the viewer’s attention by creating obstacles the two must overcome in order to be happy together. I enjoy Pam’s character because she is a realistic person who has relatable ups and downs throughout her life.
Overall, I think that “The Office,” is a great television show because it gives viewers a different perspective of a office environment. It creates a view for individuals who may thing they have a terrible office to work in that things could be worse.. This concept is shown through humor and “The Office” remains successful into its 4th season.
