Spin-office

This is gonna be shit. Guaranteed

Parks & Rec was pretty solid, and it’s an Office spin-off that started simply as The Office 2 with Rashida Jones’ character front and center

Thank God they gave it its own identity, and didn't just carry her character over

[–] deadkennedy@lemm.ee 1 points 6 days ago

yup, it was the right move - a straight up office sequel would have been boring at best

[–] Jake_Farm@sopuli.xyz 3 points 6 days ago

It was? I didn't know that.

[–] Raiderkev@lemmy.world 1 points 5 days ago

Interesting. I still think too much time has passed to make a spinoff of the office. Maybe I'll be proven wrong.

great another workplace comedy about jobs that haven't existed in a generation

so relatable

Are you under the impression that sales jobs don't exist?

I have a buddy who works as a sales person selling packaging material to large companies. They're probably in the field more than cold calling customers like the show did, but still. These jobs do exist.

They're in the girls? As a queer woman I like the sound of that

[–] the_crotch@sh.itjust.works 1 points 4 days ago

Is this a spinoff of the good office or the American office?

Surprised it took them this long to try this tbh.
