the office is one those shows you can always rewatch and not get tired of
what i love most is its not a simple set up then punchline type comedy show cough like big bang theory...i hate shows like that...office knows its funny without that formula
YES
Watch a little longer, it's basically 30 clips reorganized into 6 thousand hours of UA-cam time
I’m literally an addict. I’ve watched the entire series at least twenty times and that’s not to mention how many I’ve watched certain seasons.
Season 4 is probably my favorite. Season 7 is the saddest followed by season 9. I can relate to every character. Creed might be my favorite!!
not when its on peacock
I think Steve Carell said it best when asked time and time again to do a reboot. He basically said that you cannot recreate Camelot. The Office happened at the time and with the people it was meant to and it ended the way it was meant to end, I think you leave something this perfect alone. It is like a work of art.
Absolutely. Except it hung around for some subpar seasons after Carrell left...
Amen
Ihtt
Apparently Steve Carell has an idea for a revival episode
@Mr. Melendez it doesn't harm the original.. But you should take the example of friends and the spinoff of joey, what the Joey's spinoff did was it made it hard for audience to watch it because they couldn't see the lovely joey struggle again, they wanted it to be a happy ending
I wish I can forget the show so that I can experience watching the show for the first time again
I rewatched the show with my husband who has never seen it and seeing his genuine reactions to the absurdity added so much to the experience
I’ve always thought the same exact thing
I have that wish about SO…. So many different series. And some films. (Like. Way more often than eye / anyone should) at least I’m not the onLy one! 😉👍🏻
I first watched when I was 15 in high school, then in college like 19, now again at 23 and it still gets funnier to me I can’t lie, like every episode is hilarious bro I legit laugh out loud with this show
That is exactly how I feel.
If ever there was a show that was casted perfectly, it is The Office. Each actor played the character to perfection. There can never be another Michael Scott nor can there ever be another Dwight K. Schrute.
rainn gave dwight a weird calm sympathetic performance the other actors simply could not do which would mean he would just be the creepy jerk character...with no subtly or likeability imo...
Credit to casting director, Allison Jones, who seems attached to so many really well cast shows. Freaks and Geeks, Office, Parks and Rec, The Good Place etc.
I can’t believe they originally wanted John Krasinski as Dwight. So glad he had the foresight to turn it down and hold out for Jim.
Sadly I know a real life Dwight Schrute…
There a bunch of randoms in the pilot in the background glad they got the people they got
My heart sank when Carrell said him leaving would be good for the show in the long run. Falser words have never been spoken.
Once he left, it never felt like The Office again. Myself and many others knew months in advance that he was leaving the show. I heard from a lot of people that it wouldn’t hurt the quality of the show, even hearing from one of my friends that “oh Jim and Pam will carry the show for another 3 or 4 seasons, they’re the heart of The Office anyway” and no disrespect to Jim and Pam but a lot of the interest in them was gone after Niagara, because we didn’t get another 3 or 4 seasons, we got one pretty crappy one that had a few moments and the god awful season 9 (with the exception of the Finale). Michael Scott was the heart of the show. It’s why I was thrilled when he showed up in the series finale, because even though it was just a small cameo, it just felt right, after enduring how terrible the last season was, we had finally come full circle and it was The Office once again. I’m glad I watched season 8 and 9 despite not liking them, but in my 5 rewatches of the show, I always watch the first seven seasons, then skip ahead to the final three episodes
@@kellijones6481 I couldn’t agree more. I feel like Steve Carrels departure from the show shouldn’t have even been reality as the final 2 seasons could have been so much more with him included but honestly I think it was Rainn Wilson (Dwight Shrute) who carried the final seasons as his character development from season 1-9 was absolutely amazing and I wouldn’t change it for a thing. The show could’ve been so much more entertaining and enjoyable if Steve Carrel had stayed on but it is what it is.
People focus too much on what could have been, instead of what was.
The Office may not have been the same after he left, but it was still very good in my opinion.
@@dcaseng Season 8 had it’s moments, but I disagree, the quality of the show noticeably declined. Season 9 was atrocious, with the exception of the final 3 episodes
I enjoyed season 8 and I think it could have gone on longer without him but they played the characters all wrong. Season 9 was largely an embarrassing train wreck - I can’t rewatch that season. So sad it ended on such a low to be honest
Little did they knew, The Office would become the show that no one could get enough of. The only show you can watch 10x and still laugh and cry each and every time! What a great edit you did !
I can watch Parks & Rec over and over and get emotional every time, too.
@@shawnuel parks and rec = the office
@@shawnuel I find it boring. Never watched after the 1st episode
@@jumbomuffin1316 We all follow our own star, man!
@@jumbomuffin1316 I will say this, however. I did not watch Parks and Rec regularly until 2019 because when I watched the first 3 episodes they were not particularly good. Then, I would start catching later season eps on Comedy Central and thought they were hilarious. It didn’t even resemble what it would become until ep. 6 of season 1 and the first great episode was season 2 ep. 10, The Hunting Trip. Once Rob Lowe and Adam Scott joined the last 2 eps. of season 2, it really caught its stride.
At 5:15 the dude is watching the DVD logo trying to hit the corner... I love it. Good job guys
Bro props to you for this editing this deserves more views
so many views. I loved this
Way more views are deserved
The office is a warm blanket
My partner introduced me to this a little under 3 years ago, and we have fallen asleep to it every night since. It’s always playing in the background in our home. I associate it with the love of my life 🥺 this show means the world to me
They never played The Office where I live (Slovakia), I have never even heard of it until recently. I gave it a shot at 2021 New Years Eve, and watched the whole show in January 2022. It was a best decision of my life. I absolutely loved the show and can see myself rewatching it many times just like Friends and New Girl, and other tv sgows I love. ♡
New girl early seasons were great but the office is a different class.
Everyone in the cast portrays a character we can identify with, who feels like a living person. Everyone has a story, everyone has a purpose. I've never seen a show that balanced such outrageous comedy in such a grounded and believable way where I've literally found myself being able to empathize and see myself in EVERY character at one point or another and that is a testament to the writing staff and performers and what a great mesh of talent this show employed.
They SO made the right choice having Michael and Andy change their characters to more ... Likeable versions of themselves ya know?
I went from kinda liking the show... To borderline obsessed with how much I liked that show for awhile 😂🤙
Right, the British version of Scott is unbearable. My least favorite part. They nailed it when they gave Michael more depth.
Yeah. It then they totally destroyed Andy’s character in the end for no reason.
@@shotty2164 so true with this whole boat trip thing they ruined everything. In my opinion he was a great manager till then. I would have loved to see Dwight accepting Andy as the legal successor to Michael. When Andy got to Scranton he always competed with Dwight. It would have been great seeing him win the manager job while Dwight won Angela at the end. I also think Andy should have ended with Erin…
This was really well done. Great writing, perfect clips, the best moments and an honest analysis. It should have millions of views by now.
right!! 5 months and not even 200k views yet
I agree. This was well done.
The office is literally a show that you can watch over and over again and never get tired of it like it’ll always be there in my heart
imagine if Josh Radnor played Jim. There were so many times the office could've taken the wrong path, but yet here we are. This is an incredibly well-done video. Thank you!
Let alone that that wasn’t Josh’s calling. He said before landing HIMYM, it was his 4th pilot, meaning he had audition for a bunch of roles before HIMYM and he didn’t get those, meaning The Office was one of those who rejected them, fortunately for the show and also for Josh Radnor.
Jim and Pam would’ve gotten together in the last season and in the last episode, Jim goes back to Karen
Wow this video blew me away, I thought it was going to have like a million views based on the high level of quality, it’s so well done and I love your delivery.
I just felt the need to comment, I love your videos and can’t wait to watch more!
Thank you so much! This series is very close to my heart so I wanted to do it justice. Glad you enjoyed it!
It has over a million views now
What is going on? By the end of this video i checked how many millions of people watched it before me. UA-cam please fix your algorithm. This guy deserves more. Great work man!
Thank you so much! I’m glad you enjoyed it!
This was EXTREMELY well done! Makes me consider paying $4.99 for NBC's stupid platform just to rewatch The Office for the 8th time.
Isnt it on netflix?
@@rosemali3022 Not anymore. It was pulled so it can stream exclusively on Peacock.
I'm so happy my family gave me each new season on DVD every Christmas :) It's my favorite show so I have to own it
It's still on Netflix Canada. You did an outstanding job with this man, I hope a lot of viewers share this.
Just bought the full DVD set for $50.
I have a very fond connection to this show. Every time I hear the theme song it takes me back to a very specific moment in my life.
Andy got to work in admissions at Cornell, which he said was his dream job. And Pam obtained the real dream, her happily ever after.
The Office US is the best American TV Series I have ever watched!
Comedy... There are better shows like Breaking Bad but they are in a different category all together. Apples and oranges.
Since you used the word "American", I've read your comment with an Arabic accent. Ok?
@@seanriopel3132 “better shows,” is subjective and that specific show you say is better, can be quite difficult to watch for addicts and recovering addicts.
@@avihs92 you make it sound like I don't understand that.
@@seanriopel3132 no, *you* made it sound like you didn’t understand that. From my perspective. Agree to disagree.
✋🏼 Just a friendly reminder that Ryan started the fire
There are two scenes I am always wishing I could see for the first time again because of the belly-hurting laughs they gave me. Each time I see them, I remember how hard I laughed. Michael hitting Meredith with his car (perfectly edited for the laugh plus how Meredith rolls on and off the car) and Dwight's firedrill (I nearly hyperventilated with crying laughter at almost every moment).
My favourite show ever. I wish it could of gone on forever ♥
This was amazing. I seemingly kept getting the chills and emotionally drawn in. This onlyfurther solidified the fact The Office is my all time favorite show.
“I wish there was a way to know you're in the good old days before you've actually left them.”
No would I rather be feared or loved? easy both i want people to fear how much they love me
every true office fan needs to see this
This video gives me that same warm feeling I get after finishing a run of The Office pilot to finale. Amazingly well done, throughly enjoyed it.
That prologue was absolutely beautiful and it hit the mark perfectly.
I love how Dwight's baseball bobble head is Mike Lieberthal the mlb player who played for Scranton Wilkes-Barre minor league team
dude, this video is insane. what a ridiculously amazing video, and the amount of work put into this project shines through every single minute. well done!
I think I cry when Michael leaves during every rewatch.
This video is honestly UA-cam at its best. What fantastic analysis and use of long form video. Should have way more views than it does. Fabulous.
“I wish there was a way to know you’re in the good old days before you’ve actually left them”
Best line in tv history ❤
I stumbled across this video pretty deep under another video I was browsing and I am Thrilled!
You did amazing work. Thank you for all the wonderful memories and great info!
I think I've rewatched it more than 10 times in a couple of months..Loved it..
Watched office for last 5 months back to back. That's how good it is.🙌
The way you wrapped up this was beautiful - these actors loved the show as much as the viewers. They are a special special group of people
I remember The Office ended on my 19th birthday and it was a great episode to end with. While it would have been better if Michael Scott stayed until the very end, they managed to bring the show to an end that seemed very appropriate and one that is still worth watching today. Great video man, keep up the great work!
One of the best videos on office I ever saw on UA-cam. Big Kudos to you man really loved the overall flow and the peice to peice editing. Would recommend anything to someone who is a office fan. It's really lovely keep it up
I love The Office, but I pretty much consider it done at Season 7 (though there are a few redeeming moments/episodes in the last 2 seasons).
One of my favorite shows of all time and each time I watch it I get filled with joy but a bit of sadness that it’s over. I know it’s already been 10 years since it ended I still miss it so much. It just hit my funny bone and hit my heart in all the right ways.
The cast is literally perfection.
i watch the office every single second and then sleep to it since it started. i love the office so much. its my second home
This is seriously well-made and amazing, I wish more people knew about your content, I binged all of it in like, one night. Keep up the good work 👌
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed it!
44:07 - Andy’s free fall being the biggest disservice to a character in a series! SO TRUE. Interesting watching this it picks up on the rumours that Steve Carrell didn’t totally choose to leave and at the time he did and that the network didn’t want him ( god knows why but that has been a rumour for a while) . In the same way they seemed to dislike how big Steve became they punished Ed Helms for his Hangover success by giving him crappy stories in the end, ruining Andy and ending him as a failure and a fool.
its insane how fucking diffrent the show could have been
This is the only show I watched for the first time and a second time in a month
I love meta analysis of art and interviews, often more than the art itself
I just watched the Office last year and I agree it was the best comedy sitchom I have ever watched. I already binged watch it 4 times already
Paul Rudd and Katherine Hahn as Jim and Pam. Take a second and envision that 😂
i’ve only watched the office on youtube, and this makes me emotional
Amazing, man. Start to end was on point most esp. 50:40 onwards. This deserves millions of views
Wow. That was emotional. I didn't know I had such a deep emotion about the show. Well done.
Great job man. Seriously, this is better than anything NBC could have made about The Office, and perfectly exemplifies why independent content makers should not be marginalised, penalised, or interfered with by UA-cam or "rights holders" - especially when those parties are ultimately benefiting from the inevitable propulsion of viewership that this kind of stuff creates.
the clip of them running into the field almost made me cry
Great doc! Really well put together and managed to be informative and entertaining
The editing on these videos are next level!
Great content! As a long time fan of the show, this video showcased so many clips and details that I didn't know previously. The video was also well edited and the pacing was great with the example clips thrown in there; it was never dry nor too reliant on source material. I see a bright future for this channel!
This is the best content i have watched on youtube all day. Thanks guy
The theme song is so catchy. Great video.
Great analysis, placement of expo I didn’t even know, editing and overall production. Very underrated, quality video
Wow this is so well done! This video is beautifully organized and edited. Can't wait to see what you make in the future :)
Thank you so much!!
I've heard about some unofficial spin-off "Accountants" and about childhood of Dwight, but never found them on Internet. Together with it, the spin-off, about Jim, the "Quite Place" was very good.
The quiet place is NOT a spin off lmao
@@robertarnott3210 Why not? They took same actor, but now he kind of married and grown up, and created some funny story about aliens, who look like Venom, but the are "bad guys". Btw, there is Quite Place Two, I've seen the trailer, so Jim and his youngest son are alive!
Dude, your content is amazing, you really deserve more hype.
Thanks! I’m just glad people seem to enjoy talking about Rainforest Cafe or The Office as much as I do!
@InnoVision 3D Great résumé bro, great video. I'm watching and crying like a little child. For me, the office will be always the best thing that ever happened to television
That was an amazing conclusion to a wonderfully done essay 🥰
Just- give this dude more subs. He's amazing.
This was a really great documentary. I really enjoyed hearing all about the writers and how everyone involved with the series had such chemistry together.
In the beginning Jim’s talking heads were always shot with a view of the outside world to indicate that he had a chance to escape but in the end Jim was more trapped in the office than anyone. It’s like a horror movie.
You deserve so many more views my dude, hope this takes off! Subscribed!
Thank you so much!
God what an amazing, informative, and emotional video. This was a joy to discover. Thank you for this. Thank you
Peter Dinklage as Anton would have been great.
Thank you for compiling this and putting this together! Thanks!
Great documentary! Kudos, this was very well put together
Well done. Greatest show ever. On my 4th watch of the series now.
Love it! Bears, beets, best “history of the office” video
I wish I could go back in time to a place when I never watched this show, so I can watch it again for the first time... But I guess watching it all over again for the 8th time will do..
Well done! This was put together very well. Very informative. 👏 great job
I confidently say this is my favourite TV show I ever watched.
Tyler Campbell, this is brilliant. You took a subject already covered by many and still made it engaging and interesting. The music was well suited to compliment the emotions evoked by the recollections of the actors and in other scenes. Well done!
I invited my roommate to watch the series and he just dismissed me immediately. I love this docu of the mocku because it perfectly described why I loved the show even if I was the only one in my community watching it: “when you remove the comedy in it, you will find the heart of every character managing to find beauty in ordinary things”. I’m just sad I could not attend any of the show’s cast and crew’s press conferences. Happy to read co-fans’ comments. 😊
Unreal video man! I watched it all and it’s so well structured!!
Yo this is edited amazingly. Props for putting this together.
Woah this video is so well done I didn’t realize it isn’t like huge until I looked at the comments. This deserves way more views
This video made me cry. Beautifully edited.
13:30 big fan of all names of this list. Specially Odenkirk... But now I can't imagine this part without Steven.
What a fantastic, perfect tribute. Absolutely loved it. Learned a lot I didn't know. Thank you for doing this. So well done. I think this vid will become part of my yearly Office rewatch.
this was so well made! makes me wanna watch the whole show again
Just binge watched almost all your videos. I love your style, and the amount of research you've obviously put into creating this is astounding... I've never even watched The Office (sorry), and have avoided all Office related things until now! You lured me in, dammit!
I would live to know how this hasn’t got more views like it’s amazing and that editing wow congratulations
The Office is like home. It’s beautiful!
Just found this! Thank you for all the work you put into this! Really great mini doc!
I love this and still watch reruns all the time! I need the laugh most days…work can be brutal
You captured the essense of it man, I loved your video, kudos to you!
What a fantastically put together video. Superb content, very impressive. Loved it!
I can rewatch episodes & laugh just as much as the first time. When i need a cheer up, the office always lifts my spirits.
This was awesome! Loved it
Man when I first watched this video it had 20,000 views and I remember thinking wtf is happening? Glad to see the algorithms got it right finally
