that kool aid must be pretty good, i'm sure, but i'll pass....there is NOTHING about AD that makes it funnier or even remotely as interesting, as The Office...and i like AD..but when you realize it's just a bunch of quickie gags crammed together it doesn't work as well....what about AD makes it so sharp?? i understand you love the show, but let's not go overboard....hell, AD is a bunch of one note caricatures who are funny, but seriously redundant...the office had a brilliant cast of multi layered characters who were hillarious while playing on more interestiong social themes, thusly, making then more interesting...


what am i doin, this isn't even up for debate...
