This U.S. adaptation -- set at a paper company based in Scranton, Pa. -- has a similar documentary style to that of the Ricky Gervais-led British original. It features the Dunder-Mifflin staff, which includes characters based on roles in the British show -- and, quite possibly, people with whom you work in your office. There's Jim, the likable employee who's a bit of an every man. Jim has a thing for receptionist-turned-sales-rep Pam -- because office romances are always a good idea! There's also Dwight, the co-worker who is successful but devoid of social skills and common sense.

Darren Franich Entertainment Weekly After this admirable but uneven season, should we start asking ourselves just how much longer The Office has in it? Feb 24, 2020 Full Review Alan Sepinwall HitFix Outside of a few episodes and moments, this was a really frustrating year. Feb 24, 2020 Full Review Steve Heisler AV Club "The Banker" was hardly an episode at all, but rather a clip show. Rated: C+ Mar 20, 2018 Full Review Gage Henry Paste Magazine The formula is becoming bland. Rated: 6/10 Feb 24, 2020 Full Review Steve Marsi TV Fanatic Funny, and infinitely watchable, but somehow a little disjointed and lacking. Rated: 3.5/5 Feb 24, 2020 Full Review Will Harris Bullz-Eye.com The reason that The Office continues to be one of the best shows on television is because we have come to know its characters so well over the course of the last six years.

Captain C I couldn’t connect to one of the episodes. Very weird episode throughout the season. Episodes were cringy at times. Episode were boring. Nothing interesting happened except spoiler alert: Jim’s delivery. Only 2 part episodes that got me hooked. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/15/25 Full Review Peter F My favorite show ever. Rewatched dozens of times. This season really starts to highlight Ed Helms incredible acting skill and range as Andy who is on the same level as Michael and Dwight imo. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 12/24/24 Full Review Ed R Despite what others are saying about this season, it still hits hard with the humor! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 10/11/24 Full Review Audience Member The first half is just as good as the last 4, but I think it loses itself a tiny bit near the end. Still great though. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 08/23/24 Full Review Test T I've been watching this series on DVD. Oddly, I started when I found season 6 in a charity shop. I was a fan of the original UK "The Office" series, so I was expecting something similar. At first, I found the transition from the UK series difficult, but once I'd watched a few episodes and got to know the characters I started to enjoy it. I think Steve Carell is brilliant playing Michael Scott, and I think it's the best I have seen him perform in anything. I really like the satirical take on office life, and the rediculous situations which develop. The rest of the cast are excellent, each bringing an eccentric character to life in their own unique way to complement Michael. I find most of it extremely amusing, and often find myself laughing out loud. It's a great formula which always left me keen to watch the next episode. After watching season 6, I went on to purchase seasons 1-5 and have now watched these as well. I'm hoping to watch seasons 7-9 soon. I've thoroughly enjoyed watching this series so far, and can recommend it without hesitation. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 04/18/24 Full Review Max W Season 6 of The Office unfolds numerous major events, capturing the tumultuous and serene aspects of office life with an unparalleled sense of reality. The season maintains its high production standards and continues to showcase outstanding performances as expected. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 01/27/24 Full Review Read all reviews
