Watched the trailer and didn't laugh once. Can't catch lightning in a bottle.

 

[Rival]

This should be about as good as The Office was from season 5 until the end.

 

[Rran]

I'm skeptical but the cameo at the end made me laugh. Pretty in-character for him.

The real question is who's working on it.

 

[DKehoe]

I didn't watch all of the US version so I've always wondered, within the fictional world of The Office, were they filming that documentary for about 10 years without it airing anywhere?

 

[Connificent]

Where's the age verification

 

[Kilau]

I really like Domhnall Gleeson, he would be the only reason to watch,

It airs in season 9

They even eventually do a Q&A fan panel within the show

 

[Baemono]

Ugh

Another day, more creative bankruptcy

Just remember that everyone who made this agreed to it solely for the money and they are the exact charlatans who will be complaining the loudest about "the destruction of art" when AI comes to take their jobs in a year or two. Ignore them

I love The Office, at least the early seasons, so I will definitely check this out. But the vast majority of the jokes in The Office were funny because they're not PC and wouldn't fly today

They've already gone back and censored a bunch of episodes:

• Dwight Christmas (S9E9)
• Diversity Day (S1E2)
• A Benihana Christmas (S3E10/11)
• The Convict (S3E9)
• Gay Witch Hunt (S3E1)
• Sexual Harassment (S2E2)
• Lecture Circuit (S5E16)
• Todd Packer (S7E18)
• Scott's Tots (S6E12)

I only expect this list to grow. This is a long winded way of saying I have very little faith that this will be good

I absolutely fucking hate that these studios and companies are going back and censoring old work. Like maybe instead just tell people to get over it? The constant pussyfication to appease people who largely don't even consume the media in question is ridiculous.

Did they forget to hire comedy writers for this comedy series?

This will get canceled after no more than three episodes.

Millenial and Gen Z writing:

Diversity

Spoiler

The way you guys feel about this show is how I always felt about The Office, Superstore, Brooklyn Nine-Nine, Parks and Rec, and Abbott Elementary.

Hence buying DVDs is more relevant than ever now

Boss guy was great in Ballad of Willis island, and Gleason is a great actor, so there is some hope :|

The American Office x Wes Anderson, in this day and age...

They're doing the same shit to Always Sunny
