Why Should You Care?
Two hundred and one episodes might sound like a lot. But trust me, it flies by! Each episode is a little dose of workplace hilarity.

What Makes It So Special?
The Office is filmed in a "mockumentary" style. The characters often talk directly to the camera. This creates a really intimate and hilarious feeling.
