The British version is the one that everyone talks about. I don't know any office fans that liked the latter.
The British version is a genre-defining original which changed office behaviour across the country and finished exactly where it needed to.
The American version is a diluted on-the-nose soap opera that Gervais likes as he gets all the royalties for minimal effort.
Unfortunately, even in the UK, I'd say the USA version is now more widely known these days, especially amongst the younger generations.
