I dunno, I like Kerry Bishe, and I may have spelled her name wrong.  :)

Yeah, I found the first and third seasons to be more interesting than the
second... I am a mainframe guy so the first season with them at the IBM
competitor was interesting to me.

Sorry to hear that.  I really liked that series.

She was on Doc Martin and the IT Crowd at the same time, pretty much.

It is an office comedy, but it is not an "Office" clone in that
it is lacking
the mockumentary angle.  It reminded me more of office shows like "WKRP in
Cincinnati" than the UK or US versions of "The Office."
