And despite the focus I have just put on comparing the two here, I do love the fact that I dont have to do that with this show. I dont have to compare them. They are two completely different shows and are both very good.
I haven't seen the original, but the reason I mentioned Jim wasn't on his own merits. He's cool and all, but his chemistry with Dwight (and to a lesser extent Miachael) makes him essential. He's a brilliant straight man.
