I love The Office, I've seen the UK and US version several times and I'm also a fan of Ricky Gervais work.
Because I'm not a German native (B2 level) I didn't have high expectations for the German version. But boy I was so wrong, the humor, the mimic and the sayings are just outstanding, I laughed a lot and I think it's on par with the other versions.
Herbst is genuinely funny and acts masterfully, and the character interactions are realistic.
I really don't get why this show isn't more popular, at least in Europe. Maybe because it comes only with German subtitles!
Netflix should do better with this comedy gem, it should provide subtitles at least in English, they are so rare and these days there's no comedy anymore, everything is controlled and politically correct.
