史上最佳的八檔英國電視節(jié)目

6. The Office 《辦公室笑云》

（英國廣播公司第二臺，2001年-2003年）

Such a well-observed creation is David Brent - “I’m a friend first and a boss second, probably an entertainer third” - that his name has entered the lexicon as shorthand for a bad boss. So innovative and downright hilarious was Ricky Gervais and Stephen Merchant’s mockumentary-style sitcom set at a Slough paper merchants that it moved the goalposts for 21st century comedy. It was the first ever British sitcom to win a Golden Globe and has been exported worldwide.
“第一，我是一個朋友。第二，我是老板。最后，我可能還是一個演員。”這是劇中主人公大衛(wèi)?布倫特的深刻寫照，他的名字儼然已經(jīng)成為壞老板的代名詞。劇情內(nèi)容聚焦英國斯勞一個紙業(yè)公司的辦公室。導(dǎo)演瑞奇?熱維斯的創(chuàng)造力和直截了當(dāng)?shù)挠哪泻退沟俜?莫昌特的偽紀(jì)錄片式情景喜劇風(fēng)格為21世紀(jì)喜劇片注入了新鮮的血液。該劇獲得了英國情景喜劇史上第一個金球獎，并走出國門在世界各地播出。
