More evidence that most Americans have terrible senses of humour

B/c of Bilmore, we really didn't need confirmation, but nevertheless:

(spree: the American version of the Office gets the worst ratings for a sitcom in NBC TV history. A TV insider said "Americans are used to sitcoms where good-looking people sit on a sofa and crack a joke every 15 seconds."

I blame SUVs and fat people.
I can't speak for the American version, but the BBC version could not be funnier. Way to go out on a limb there, I know, I know. But I'm thinking that the casting of Mackenzie Crook as Gareth is the best casting job of all time. Who else could play the "weasel-faced arse" but this guy?

So poll: Best examples of casting from TV/movies? What roles just had to be played by the person who ended up playing them?
