It's like going to watch a led Zeppelin cover band and saying that they're better than the original.
Wait, it worse than that. The original Office is the Beatles, the NBC version is the Monkees.

You couldn't be more off base. I'm a huge Ricky Gervais fan, loved the british series (All.... 14... Episodes)
Anyway, they don't reuse the jokes, it's a totally different show. You're a fool not to watch it for the reasons you specified.
