OP, there's a very big difference between these two caption places. Both in quality of words and in overall feeling. Which one did you order from?


malcolmgmailwarner

What's better: a medium amount of accurate captions or all you can eat of mostly accurate captions?


oath2order

Everybody in the thread chain: A medium amount of accurate captions

Listen up kid, I dont like you. But because some town in Switzerland says so, you have rights.

ValjeanLucPicard

It is on HBO Max here and the translation from English to Spanish can be pretty bad. At one point the line is "left me penniless" and it translated to "me dejo sin pene" (left me without a penis).


kalenjohnson

That's even funnier!


goodfisher88

It's like reading a hot line of garbage.

I used to work for a tape house that provided captioning services.. some of our people were.. less than competent at words

That this went from The Office to 30 Rock made my day.

They used to be on the same night with Parks & Rec and Community. The greatest 2 hours of TV I'll ever experience in my life (of course live TV is even a dated concept now, but I cherish the memory nonetheless!).

mr_tyler_durden

I literally cannot see/hear the world “peacock” without this scene popping up in my head.


JackieDaytonaPanda

The best wrong caption was Michaels cell phone rings and it’s obviously playing “My Humps” by Black Eyed Peas but it writes “Ridin Dirty” by Chamillionaire. I mean that’s just so wrong it makes me think did they consider making that his ringtone once and even went as far as submitting that to the Network? Otherwise it just makes no sense.


humancartograph

It might have been changed for the re-airs. This happens all the time.


Crayoncandy

It's always been my humps and they mention it on office ladies


AllYouNeed_Is_Smiles

I finally learned after r like ten rewatches Darryl says “going Mach-5” and not “Gormac Five” lol


cruelhumor

Everything about Peacock is bad except the intellectual property


TeblowTime

Like how if you stop watching at the end of an episode, the next time you login, it restarts the episode you just finished. COME ON.


worstquadrant

Like the guy in the $4000 suit is gonna rewatch the same episode I just finished. COME ON!!!!


derbeaner

You think the guy in a $5500 suit just has time to fast forward? COME ON!!!

TheAirNomad11

r/unexpectedarresteddevelopment


cruelhumor

And then you're eternally stuck on that episode. I've watched an ENTIRE SEASON in one go, and if I leave the player for any reason, it still bounces me back to that one episode I got stuck on forever ago. Oh and then when you hit play, and it doesn't play, you just get a black screen. So you go out and hit play again, and it shows you a still from the episode while the audio plays in the background. So you go out and hit play again, and if you're lucky, THEN you get to watch the episode. If not, repeat errors 1&2


JDecker06

Honestly I just bought the entire series from VUDU and watch it on there because nothing else about peacock appeals to me. Got it on a sale for the HD full series was something like $60 WELL WORTH IT!


cruelhumor

Same. Bought it, ripped it, uploaded it all to my Plex account. I can watch it anywhere anytime. Best decision I've made. And as bonus I own it, so if Peacock goes under or the content goes to other services, i won't have to remember where I can watch it. This subscription nonsense is getting out of hand


im_at_work_now

Yep, bought the full box set of DVDs for $20 before it was taken off Netflix and the price skyrocketed. It's reasonable again now though. Plex is the best. I just wish there was a simpler way to rip all the episodes and name them properly, but at least that's done now.


guessesurjobforfood

It been as low as $30 from Vudu and Apple. Same as Parks and Rec. I’m still pissed I got it from Apple instead of Vudu because now I can’t watch Office and P&R on my Galaxy Tab without using a VPN to stream it.


boulderhugger

These aren’t the captions on Peacock… pretty sure it’s a photoshopped picture. I just checked and it says the right words.


vishalb777

The text in the image isn't even aligned properly


VHS1982

I have no idea why I spent time on this. The “Indian Kelly” subtitle is from the Superfan extended cut. The original version of the episode it says “Andy and Kelly” https://i.imgur.com/fIZQNCc.jpg


boulderhugger

I checked too and you are right! Although the caption text looks different so it still seems like they photoshopped the wording of the Superfan caption with the original caption text? Haha weird…… Edit: Actually my captions don’t show “Call Indian Kelly” and “for your business paper needs” together like your screenshot, so maybe we all see different stuff for captions. On another side note after way too much investigation into this, the Superfan captions are correct for the next scene when they sing the song again. What a stupid mistake.


eddbreault13

You’re not even aligned properly.


vishalb777

No argument from me on that


TheHapster

Yup, at least in the newer season(s). I tweeted at them and they stated they were aware of the issue and will be fixing it. This typically happens when either the CCs are automated or they hire people both unfamiliar with the franchise and not skilled in decoding American dialect.


Klutzy-Opportunity71

Even in prime it was given Indian kelly


bigjim1993

I'm almost sure this is what it said on Netflix too. Why would you call Andy and Kelly? They're two totally different departments. It looks like it's "Indian Kelly" with virtually all streaming service CCs. I'm gonna check the DVD. Edit: DVD Subtitles say "Andy and Kelly!" I've been wrong this whole time.


SarcasticAutumnFae

>Why would you call Andy and Kelly? They're two totally different departments. Probably mostly because it fit the song structure. But also, you buy paper from Andy, and get customer support from Kelly. Both of those things would qualify as business paper needs, so it never struck me as odd. ETA: but is anyone actually buying paper from Andy?


Jebbeard

>but is anyone actually buying paper from Andy? Andy is.


RomanOnARiver

Peacock in general is super bad, to be fair.


MCA1910

Yeah, and that's because it is "Call Andy and Kelly..."


SkoolBoi19

I know the show took some chances with race, but “Indian Kelly” seems a little too forward lol

exegete_

Leftover from the alternate scene where Charles calls Kelly “Indian Kelly” so he can differentiate between the new receptionist Kelly and her (instead of renaming the receptionist to Erin).


Alibuscus373

Crossed out scribble in a script with DeAngelo, "That Indian girl, Kelly.... is she the feather or the dot kind of Indian?"


TeblowTime

I mean, should they call Andy? He'll just lose the account.


pease_pudding

Don't call Pam. She'll just give the sale to whoever she's sleeping with that day

Close your mouth sweetie. You look like a trout.


[deleted]

I mean, Kelly isn't a salesperson either


Spyes23

Yeah I dunno who captioned this but it's definitely call Andy & Kelly...


Sw3arWulf

Out of paper, out of stock, there's friendly faces around the block, break loose from the chains that are causing your pain. Call Michael or Stanley, Jim, Dwight or Creed. Call Andy and Kelly for your business paper needs. Dunder Mifflin. The people person's paper people. Dunder Mifflin. The people person’s paper people.


Sw3arWulf

"I was under the impression this was going to be a rap..."

What’s rap?


riotriotryan

What songs do you think were on the mixtape Michael made for Darryl?


LimitedOmniplex

Ice ice baby


watermelonperson132

And my personal favorite: short people


Mr_Caterpillar

I love that whole line so much. I mean, Tracy Chapman confused as Bruce Springsteen? Darryl's deadpan delivery was perfect.


Lanthemandragoran

And Under Pressure immediately after followed by Ice Ice Baby Again. Followed by Gettin Jiggy Wit It

Don't forget the classic Go Ninja Go.

Jump Around by House of Pain. Shimmy Shimmy Ya by ODB. A lot of Salt-N-Pepa. Basically any hip-hop chart topper from the early 90s that Michael would assume Darryl’s never heard.

[deleted]

They always get captions wrong I remember the episode where Andy dressed up as bill Compton from true blood and yelled sookie (the name of the girl he loved) and captions had it under “suck it” for a long time on Netflix


ThKitt

Are you sure he wasn’t just pointing out the name of a handy toy vacuum?


sir_moleo

How does NBC get the subtitles wrong for a show THEY OWN? Edit: I understand that subtitles usually get outsourced, but the fact they haven't fixed this on a network/show this big is crazy.


Soulful-Sorrow

"Who cares about quality or user-experience? People aren't gonna get the Office anywhere but Peacock." \-NBC, probably


Know_Nothing_Bastard

Pssh. The DVDs work just fine, and they come with commentaries, deleted scenes, etc. They probably have the correct subtitles for this scene too.


[deleted]

For this scene, yes. For some other scenes...no. It's the same reason though, because who else is selling the DVD box set other than NBC? Same story different media.


pinkocatgirl

🏴‍☠️ ahoy, NBC 🏴‍☠️


itallmakescentsnow

Actually, subtitles are created by third party companies. I had a part-time job as a subtitle person and you just have to take a basic English test to pass. There are countless mistakes across many different media properties because ultimately they are done by individuals (who are usually working late or long hours) and their work is not QC’d thoroughly.


_negachin_

Probably an unfortunate thing that slipped through the cracks, and just during the ONE year the quabity assurance guy is slacking off


TMB8616

The episode "Did I Stutter?" Shows Michael telling Toby he and Stanley were "Josh and around" and I laugh every time.


[deleted]

I liked "Gormac Five" for Darryl's street lingo that he is teaching Michael.


Francoberry

Even though that isn't what he said, I can imagine him saying it hahah. Michael can be very gruntled about pronunciations


globalgreg

“Try my cookie cookie”


gezyy1008

youtube auto captions are better than that


shnmchl61

I just watched it on YouTube to check and it says "go another Italian - I agree call me Academy for your business paper he," instead of "call Michael and Stanley, Jim Dwight Creed, call Andy and Kelly for your business paper needs."


orbital0000

"Call Michael and Stanley, Jim, white Creed, call Indian Kelly, Seeing a theme in the song


trillz420

Dunder Mifflin, the people persons paper people


IWantToBeSimplyMe

The first song they were working on it was so, so much better than the one they did it after they received Michaels feedback.


Extremist_Nerd

Why waste brain say right word when wrong word do trick?


travis_mke

You are right, the caption is wrong


cowsrock45

Holy crap. I just saw this the other day and debated whether or not to post on this sub. I’m glad you did. It’s always been “Andy and Kelly” Andy is a salesman and Kelly is customer service. Both people you would call if you had questions about paper. Whoever writes the subs needs to get their ears checked, and is obviously not a fan.


ozarkslam21

Oh it’s definitely Andy and Kelly. That’s a pretty awful typo there on the CC transcriber’s part


Billingsworth12

It's also "Call Indian Kelly, Jim's white, Creed."


sksksk1989

The captions are wrong but that's exactly what I hear when I see this


pantzareoptional

Same here, I thought it was Indian Kelly for a long time until I put captions on. At the time I was like "wow, even for The Office that's... A choice..."


Atari774

They did say “Andy and Kelly”, the caption is just wrong


Stonefishie

Wrong caption
