I personally don't know anyone that finds it funny or even watches it. I know alot of people that watch Earl, which I think is much better and so much funnier.

No. Steve Carrell is funny in movies, but The Office is dry.

I think it's much funnier than Earl, which is entertaining but only makes me chuckle once or twice an episode. If you find the Office dry or boring, you're sort of missing the point. The humor is in the subtle reactions and how close it is to what actually happens in real-life offices. There are thousands of Michaels and Dwights in the world, embarrassing themselves without really knowing it. That's why the show has such a devoted following.

I'm not sure how old you are...that might have a lot to do with this. I don't know a single person who goes out of their way to watch earl. No one I know talks about it at all. Most of my friends watch the Office. We talk about it often. I personally think it's the funniest NETWORK show since Seinfeld (Network means it's always sunny, curb your enthusiasm, and Chapelle show don't count).
I suspect there is an age difference. Maybe geographic. Earl is ok....it's just that thing that's on before The Office starts.

I enjoy watching The Office and know several people that love it. I like Earl better.

The Office is the best comedy on tv right now... And its based in Scranton which is even funnier!
I thought I would like Earl, but I really don't. It bores me.

It's almost as bad as the UK clone. Come to think of it, nothing on that network is funny. The only good show is 24 but that's action.
