Agreed.

I just can't see how people say that David Brent (Gervais; U.K. original) is more mean-spirited than Michael Scott (Carell; U.S. version). Brent's dumb-assness was predominantly out of wanting to be liked. Scott wants to be liked, too, but he's much more assholish. For example, he cuts down Phyllis; he doesn't care about Kevin's biopsy results 'cause it's taking attention away from his birthday. Brent never did stuff that bad.
