| | Ricky Gervais' critically acclaimed and multi-award winning The Office is
taken across the pond. This unique comedy series offers a smart, tongue-in-cheek
documentary-style look at the humorous, and sometimes poignant, banality of the
9-to-5 white-collar work world.
The Office takes a painfully funny look at the interactions of the cubicle
jockeys at Dunder Mifflin paper supply company in Scranton, Pennsylvania. Golden
Globe winner Steve Carell (The 40-Year Old Virgin) stars as unctuous regional
manager Michael Scott who hosts the documentary crew on a tour of the workplace.
Jenna Fischer (Miss Match), John Krasinski (Jarhead, Kinsey), Rainn Wilson (Six
Feet Under), and B.J. Novak (Punk'd) star as the employees who tolerate
Michael's inappropriate behavior only because he signs their paychecks.
With unshaken enthusiasm, Michael believes he is the office funnyman and a
fountain of business wisdom. Unaware of how he is perceived by his employees,
Michael comes off alternately absurd and pathetic, but always hilarious.
Pam Beesly (Fischer) is the sweet office receptionist who bears the brunt of
Michael's behavior. Engaged to Roy, a good old boy who works in the warehouse,
Pam looks forward each day to conspiring with Jim Halpert (Krasinski), the
likable sales rep with a good sense of humor who should have found a better job
years ago. Jim and Pam delight in finding ways to torment the office sycophant,
Dwight Schrute (Wilson), the annoying assistant to the regional manager, who is
jealous of all the attention that his boss pays to Ryan Howard (Novak), the
young, smart, self-possessed temp, who quickly figures out the real office
politics.
The Office is executive-produced by Ricky Gervais and Stephen Merchant.
