Being a big fan of the TV show The Office, I went to the show's website and found The Office: The Accountants, a collection of short videos which center around Angela, Oscar, and Kevin. I watched the most recent one and laughed so hard that I went back and watched all 10 "episodes." These are great, mainly because we get to learn more about what they deal with at Dunder Mifflin, especially when if comes to Micheal. While Oscar and Angela are funny, the highlight is Kevin. Watching him and Angela fight is one of the funniest things I have ever seen. Check it out if you have a chance. The best episode is the one where Kevin writes a memo about how Angela stinks. Definitely worth giving these three more time on the TV show.

bob the moo28 May 2009This collection of short films were released a few months before The Office return for Season 3 in the US. They were screened separately and can still be seen on the NBC website but it is best to watch them back-to-back because I don't think they are strong enough to stand up as individual 2 minute episodes. The focus is of course on the accountants as they try to figure out who "took" money that they cannot account for on the books by looking into specific suspects. Despite the low quality of the footage (compared to the TV show) these are actually pretty amusing and they follow up on what season 2 did – make better use of the supporting characters.
We don't really have any of the "main" characters here but you don't miss them because those in it are funny without Pam, Michael or Dwayne – something that the show used to make it better in seasons 2 and 3 (which is as far as I've seen now). Those describing The Accountants as "hilarious" are probably overstating it though but each 2-minute bite will have at least one or two moments in them that made me laugh, which is a pretty good return and made for an amusing 15 or so minutes. Worth a look for fans.
