The Office

The Office is a half-hour documentary series on NBC, based on the wildly successful U.K. version aired on the BBC. It follows the daily life of officeworkers at the Dunder-Mifflin Paper Co. in Scranton, PA.
Viewers have complained about the new series' complete absence of pubs, chips, lorries, wankers, and winding up. There is also widespread suspicion that Michael Scott, the boss who has become the series' focus, is actually a fictional character played by an actor named Steve Carrell.
