The Office’s Creator Wants A 'New Take' On The Show, And I Have Mixed Feelings About The Supposed Idea

Steve Carrell in The Office.

Even though it came to an end in 2013, The Office has remained one of the most beloved comedies to grace our TV screens (despite the fact that it lost its way toward the end), and its success leaves little mystery as to why there would be interest in reviving it in some way. It now seems that is happening, as Greg Daniels, the man behind the American version of the workplace mockumentary, is moving forward with a “new take” on the series, and I’m not sure how I feel about this idea.

Greg Daniels is assembling a writers room for the new series, THR reports, but he has stated in the past that he doesn’t want to do a straight revival of The Office, for fear of disappointing its passionate fans. This new project will possibly exist in the same world as that of Dunder Mifflin, without involving the same characters or members of the original cast.
