Certainly doesn't keep me coming back to it like the UK version. And in general I'm someone who thinks Gervais is overrated.

The UK office did not show in the USA

It isnt a typical US sitcom

It is comparable to the UK version in many aspects

It went on for perhaps 2-3 seasons too many

And "Gervais" is certainly not over rated
