This is probably one of the most random and seriously exciting things I’ve been fortunate enough to be involved in this year. Last week Saturday I was sitting having coffee in Parkhurst when these two guys sitting close by whip open a laptop and start playing this TV series. I think nothing of it and carry on sipping my espresso.
Yet there is only so much you can laugh under your breath at hilarious comedy an arms length away from you at a coffee shop. So I interject and ask if I have it right and what I am listening to is actually a South African version of ‘The Office’.
Fast forward about a week and notonTV is live.
This is a homage to the original The Office series by the guys at notonTV. NotonTV is a new youtube channel providing local comedy content that you largely won’t find on SA TV because it would be deemed ‘unPC’ or too ‘sensitive’ for SA TV viewers.
I spoke with the guys at notonTV and 100% back their concept of saying what people want to hear said and doing what people want to have done.
Here’s their homage to ‘The Office’, it is incredibly hilarious and has great production values. Gone are the days of slapstick comedy and badly lit film sets.

Appreciate your another write-up, It’s my job to get pleasure from examining whatever you should state although I wouldn’t generally agree with the fact. It is far from the exact same at this point is Asia. The natives possibly see it just a little in different ways. I always want to find an Oriental woman standpoint.
