The IT Crowd

I just finished binging another round of The IT Crowd on Netflix, and it's still the funniest show I've ever seen. Don't remember if I've seen discussion of it here, but I'm sure there are other fans in the M/TV.

For other fans who were unaware, a pilot for a US version of The IT Crowd was made a year after the original show started. Strangely, Richard Ayoade reprised his role as Moss in the US pilot. Despite that, the pilot was awful. Here is it if you've never seen it:

Here's a short scene comparison of the original to the US pilot:

And now I learn that NBC is making another attempt (the 3rd attempt) at a US version of The IT Crowd:

They're obviously looking for another success story like "The Office," but it ain't gonna happen.
