Well that was 3,20 minutes of my life I'll never see again...Check out Stromberg, their version of The Office which has just been made into a full length (crowdfunded) feature film, which, IMHO, is pretty crap as well (*).

(* when they originally showed there was no credit to The Office and I remarked on how similar it was. They had apparently plagiarised it and when the BBC found out, they had a fit and now has to say that it was inspired by The Office.)

I got the Stromberg Staffel series somewhere!

I also have the first two eps of the IT Crowd clone they did (Die Jungs und der Maus?) - EXACT copies so the same its a joke, apart from the the language. Even the same clothes!

Think it was canned after two eps....

I get these for my missus who's fluent in German, any recommendations? We got plenty of films, plus Alexanderplatz, Heimat, I'm looking for eps of Lindenstrasse tho!

I'm currently working my way through Der Tatortreiniger (Der Tatortreiniger | NDR.de - Unterhaltung - Comedy - Der Tatortreiniger) which is rather enjoyable, also any of the Tatort series set in Münster (they get the highest viewing figures in Germany.)

Well John Cleese liked it. Apparently he even appears in one of the unaired episodes.
Only 1 ep was ever shown. And even that is completely and totally impossible to find now.

German remake of Fawlty Towers, with a Russian Manuel - I want to see it!

Not funny at all, the comments below the movie agree
BTW "Manuel" is from Kazakhstan but speaks Russian and the owner thinks Kazakhstan is somewhere in Russia

The set looks just the same.

Where's the French version of Allo, Allo?
