I'm still not convinced it was ever destined to be a big ratings show. Some just don't connect with a wider audience. It's a shame, but it happens. And I'm not sure reality TV spoofs ever do that well ratings wise. Sure, The Office did well in this country, but it never got the figures Only Fools and Horses or My Family got. As for the states, The Office became a cause celeb but again didn't set the ratings on fire. Not sure what the viewing figures are like for the American Office, but I can't imagine they're huge. And I certainly don't see it going beyong four or five seasons.
