   Although I didn’t really understand anything they said. that Chilean Office is hilarious :D

   You can pretty much understand the jokes as they just did the original UK Office’s script, but man, that is some funky stuff :D

   That dude is the most stupid-looking Dwight ever.

   A six episode arc for Amy Ryan?! Does this mean Holly is going to be leaving?! I hope not! I love her!

   Me gusta mirar La Oficina en español… y este Jim esta guapo también! Hoy es un buen día.

   Also, I’m crossing my fingers that we get to see Creed with a pet squirrel. I would pay money for that.

    Holy Crap! I speak Spanish and I could barely understand the Chilean accent. They must eat like every other syllable. I’m glad I knew what the episode was about and could just distinguish some cultural differences. Does anyone know how many versions there are? I only knew about the German and French versions.

    Wow, the Chilean office is awesome. I like how Chilean Jim put Dwight’s stuff in a sandwich instead of Jello. I guess Jello doesn’t translate in Chile.

    14, Flonkerton-

    UK and US, obviously. There’s also French (Le Bureau), German (Stromberg), Quebec (La Job) and Chile (La Ofis). There’s also a Russian version in development.

    Wikipedia article on The Office as a whole.

    No, Melora. Having a Michael/Jan wedding and not a Pam/Jim would not be funny.
