Excuses for lazy camera work sometimes.
There’s nothing lazy about the camerawork. You seriously don’t have a clue.
And I tried to watch the British series, and bailed. It sucked because it was exactly what the American “Office” started out to be - utterly heartless and unfunny.
Thankfully, the powers-that-be knew that if they continued that way their show wouldn’t last, changed it in the first episode of season two, and the rest is history. :-)
