Michael Scott and David Brent: best friends forever
A recent Sunday edition of the Chicago Tribune included a short Q&A with Ricky Gervais, star and producer of the original UK version of “The Office,” as well as executive producer of the US version.
The final question of the article was:
What do you think David Brent [boss of the BBC’s “The Office,” played by Gervais] and Michael Scott would enjoy doing together?
Ricky responds:
Getting drunk and showing off. It would be like Bill and Ted or “Dumb and Dumber.”
Now wouldn’t that be a splendid episode! Maybe they would meet and become friends at some international paper convention …
P.S. This article is no longer available.
