Michael Scott over George Costanza/Tony Soprano? Insanity! (1 Viewer)

[eoMMan]

You guys, along with the most other people, watch way too much TV. Read a book, play outside, go to the gym, have sexy time, etc. Your life will be better.

The more you know.

I can kind of see it.

I love Omar, hell my dog is named after Omar, but as an overall character, I'd take Scott.

Never could get into the Sopranos, so I got no problem with that.

Costanza is the tough one, but I could see it.

IMO, The Office is one of the 5 best comedies of all-time, and I'm not sure a single character of the comedies in that conversation were as important to their show as Scott was to The Office. His performance over that run was simply brilliant.

The biggest travesties here (and there are many) are Ron Swanson and Vic Mackey not making it out of the first round.

Big fan of The Office but didn't think Scott was much of a character. The majority of the laughs came from the supporting cast. Didn't find Scott funny at all. Agreed on Swanson. That is just wrong.

Did Frank Underwood have a bad enough 3rd season to get screwed by the committee like that?

A 3 seed is nice, but they sent him cross country to take on the underseeded Kramer in the ON DEMAND region.

Why not put him where he belongs as the 3 seed in the NETFLIX region where he faces Rick Grimes, Tim Riggins, and Eric Cartman (all wins) before losing to the Larry David Spartans.

 

[Cjw_55106]

Well, the Netflix region is a scam anyways. Underwood is on a show that only exists on Netflix, yet he isnt in that region?

 

[wikkidpissah]

Michael Scott is the posterboy for willful oblivion, the most powerful force in American society today.

Al Swearengen being left out was a big snub by the committee.

The region names mean nothing. You know, like UNC and Wisconsin playing in the West Regional.

I didn't love the show, but Swearengen is a better character than many of those listed. Mr. Feeney, Mr. Belding???

Who the #### is Frank Gallagher?? Sam Malone should've won this thing.

I had to Google who Michael Scott was. For real.

Same here. Awful, awful show

The bracket was bad, but you are just way wrong here.

It's one of those things we'll never agree on. I've tried to watch 4 or 5 episodes and couldn't get through it. The camerawork for one thing drives me insane and I see it has infiltrated its way into other shows like Modern Family. Shake, shake ZOOM-IN.. Shake, shake ZOOM-IN. Doesn't that make the comedy funnier.

The Office is horribly unfunny and tremendously overrated.

What's the difference?

Cartman has no ingenious methods of torture.

The individual match-ups were decided by which character got the most Tweets in their favor. So yeah...Twitter users decided this garbage.

It doesn't excuse some of the horrific seeding, but it does make a bit more sense: Most people under 25 and virtually all heavy Twitter users are incredibly ignorant. And many are also pretty stupid.

 

[Papa Georgio]

Many left off but most are from well into the past but I can't believe they didn't have Sterling Archer as an option.

I wish I could post the gif here that would fully encapsulate your threadbare level of ignorance.

Your sarcastic support of my combining adjectives with nouns is appreciated. Just don't sleep on the verbs as that post was a full fledged sentence.

It's a mock-u-mentry like Spinal Tap. The camera stuff doesn't bother me, the show is just hillarious. You don't like awkward humor?

Spinal Tap and Office Space are 2 top 5 comedies for me. Also love Will Farrell.

Carrell is fine for me in general but that show just sucks.
