Anyone seen any episodes of Extras? It's a British comedy about these two people who primarily work as extras for movies (people in the background or whatever). I guess it's on HBO. Funny stuff. I rented the DVDs.
 
The show isn't as funny as I had hoped though. The Office is way better.

The British office? I haven't seen that one. I know it has the same main male character from Extras as the boss, right? I like the American Office. It's painfully funny.

But I think Extras can be pretty hilarious, and awkward.

I didn't know about your crush, but thanks for telling me, I suppose :)

This doesn't happen very often, but I totally agree. Extras is a disappointing show and the British version of The Office is far superior to both it and the American version of The Office (but then I am biased as someone who stays in the UK a lot and generally prefers British comedy over anything else).
 
I was an extra in Stranger Than Fiction. It was an interesting experience, and seems like it would be a good topic for a show. I don't have cable though, so I've never caught this one. I've heard elsewhere that it was just so-so.
