In celebration of the 10th Anniversary of the BBC premiere of the original Ricky Gervais comedy sensation, The Office, BBC releases The Office Collection Special Edition featuring the complete, original UK series plus an assortment of new bonus features. The inspiration for the long-running NBC comedy, The Office garnered tremendous critical acclaim when it originally premiered on BBC AMERICA, including being declared the best comedy on television by The New York Times and pretty much the funniest show ever by Newsweek. Only twelve episodes and a 2-part Christmas Special were ever made, but its influence on television comedy is unparalleled. New bonus features include the original pilot, six specially recorded episode introductions by co-creators Ricky Gervais and Stephen Merchant, and two BBC specials, Comedy Connections: The Office, and Heroes of Comedy: Ricky Gervais.
