One of my favorite shows as a kid was Green Acres, it can still raise some hearty laughs out of me. The high level of absurdity worked for me, as it does with The Office. I mean, the whole idea that a documentary film crew would be following this hopelessly out of touch middle manager around for 6 years (and counting) is absurd enough, blend together a heaping helping of doltish characters and you have a modern comedy masterpiece. It's not that the situations are all that outlandish in and of themselves, it's the feckless individuals trapped within Michael Scott's orbit that raises the comedy quotient - especially the minor characters, an ever expanding universe of lethargic warehouse workers and anxious corporate zombies in search of a clue. Like for instance the dour warehouse manager Darryl who can devastate with a single glance and an errant word or two; or Angela and Dwight hooking up behind her fiancee Andy's back. Soap opera-esque storylines like the Jim / Pam romance or the Michael Scott Paper Company plot thread twists the knife in the psyche of these neurotic nine-to-fivers to great effect. The bare bones economy of the humor makes The Office work, no one is hammering too hard here - well, Dwight maybe - but the lilting rhythm has been established over the years now. As long as the laugh-out-loud funny episodes keep coming I'll keep watching. And re-watching on DVD, The Office will hold up exceedingly well in the years to come, I suspect.
