That’s not really accurate. The pilot episodes have nearly identical scripts, but none of the other episodes do. They borrow some episode concepts and character arcs, but the scripts are original.
That said, there is definitely a tonal shift away from the UK series in the beginning, most notably starting with season 2.
- autoexec 4y agoYeah, the US office turned into it's own thing pretty quickly considering it started with the same premises and characters. The pilot is painful to watch, but it took the general concept and ran with it until it doesn't seem fair to compare the two anymore. They're two very different shows.
