Tim is basically an underachiever, he admits that himself. He has got himself into a dead end spot and doesn't have the guts to do anything about it. Gareth may be a bit of a tosser but he feels a lot more at see with himself. One thing that really bugs me about Tim is how he is always having a go at Gareth being in the territorial army ( the reserve army I guess as I'm not British ). At least Gareth is doing something to try and protect his nation, Tim does nothing but have a go at others while doing nothing with his own life.

"and shouldn't watch The Office at all. It's not for them. They don't get it as a whole. The creators would be ashamed."
Are you kidding me, you semi-literate dipstick?
These things are matters of opinion, not ultimate truths for you to preside over.

Whoever say Tim is mean, a prick etc., while Gareth is okay, or the pregnant woman is a good person etc., are missing the point, and shouldn't watch The Office at all. It's not for them. They don't get it as a whole. The creators would be ashamed.
You almost hate the show because you don't understand it. You can only enjoy certain jokes of it.
Tim portrays the archetype of nice guy, Gareth the likeable childish idiot, the pregnant woman the unlikeable selfish idiot.

The Office is awesome, but that said, pretty much all the main characters are self-serving and unlikeable. For the most part, that's the joke.
Tim, who is introduced as a sort of long-suffering voice of sanity, is no exception. I thought he was a fkn pr*ck personally.
Not sticking up for Gareth in any way shape or form, however.
Oh yeah, and the pregnant woman: I thought she was fit. Obnoxious, but fit.

What, gone off Dawn now have you?

That's obviously his signature. You need to get used to how comments are structured on IMDB.

No offense; but you're the idiot. The guy you replied to said JIM was worst. Then you went off at him and confirmed JIM was the worst. Well done.
It was my old signature

Tim put down the working class, showing that he's a complete snob
That was clearly tongue-in-cheek. It's very likely his own background is working class.
LOUD NOISES!

Tim put down the working class, showing that he's a complete snob, yet he lived with his parents and only went to college for one year. His pranks were mostly just childish ways to get Gareth to sound or appear gay. Say what you will about Jim, but at least he was creative when he took the piss. I liked Tim, but he was a prick.

I think Tim is much more likable than Jim. Tims breakup with Rachael was much better done than Jims breakup of Karen and Katy. He was totally ignorant to them
No offense, but you're an idiot.

Getting his own back on Gareth is how Tim manages to get some job satisfaction. Let's not pretend that Gareth isn't a power-hungry toady drunk on his own self-importance, let alone deeply intolerant at times. Imagine working with someone like that every week for years on end.
Now if we're handing out douchebag awards, then his American counterpart, Jim, is much more deserving. From what I've seen, he's selfish and downright cruel to Dwight. I don't remember Tim destroying Gareth's property or outright assaulting him! It doesn't help that Dwight seems slightly less obnoxious than Gareth, if a little harder to believe as a character.

well i'm not saying gareth and the pregnant woman are perfect. at least they don't try to act better than everyone else. i respect your opinion of them though.

"i really hate how tim plays so many pranks on gareth. gareth actually seems like a really nice guy."
What's nice about Gareth? (The one who thinks crippled people should have pins stuck in their legs to see if they're really qualified to claim a disability allowance.)
What's nice about the pregnant woman? (The one who tricked someone at Disneyland Paris into believing her son was terminally ill so she wouldn't have to wait in a queue to go on Space Mountain. And possibly jump ahead of children who really
were
terminally ill.)
I say Tim is great.
