      Season 9 – The Office

      2012 Holiday Comedy List
      79% 43 Reviews Tomatometer 86% 1,000+ Ratings Audience Score 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. Read More Read Less Watch on Peacock Stream Now

      Max W And, scene. Everyone has found their final destination. This series is a perfect textbook for career life and an enlightenment for everyone's life goals; thank you, Dunder Mifflin. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 03/17/24 Full Review Viviana G Seasons 8 and 9 are just painful to watch! I couldn´t believe my eyes, that´s how bad they are. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 01/07/24 Full Review Flobine Très bonne dernière saison, avec une finale très satisfaisante. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 10/24/23 Full Review Hemant S This is a gem from the pre-digital content days (now available on Amazon and/or Netflix) and there is no doubt that you will start missing it when you get closer to the end – even with it being a 9 seasons with 25 episodes in each. True, Ricky Gervais started a brilliant spark with the UK version, but Greg Daniels and his crew just killed it with some improvised brilliance. Full of pure laugh out loud moments, some teary eyed ones – yet low key just like every other office next-door with characters that remind you of colleagues you may have/or are working with, and even that try-hard boss you love to hate and hate to love – it's relatability is why it is so affable. Steve Carell, John Krasinski, Jenna Fischer, Rainn Wilson, Ed Helms and the whole ensemble are a hilarious bunch. Watch out for some memorable and delightful cameos by Amy Adams, Idris Elba, James Spader, Rashida Jones and so many more. There are many good reasons why this became a classic and a rage years after it was aired on TV, and has surprisingly won many admirers from a younger lot of viewers. And I have to mention the beautifully scripted love story arc that find itself embedded in the middle of the hilarity – it's one of the most heart grabbing and "real" ones I have seen since the many stories in "Love Actually". Great writing, perfect comic timing and acts make an aptly prescribed comic relief equalizer for these grim times we find ourselves in. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 07/17/23 Full Review Nicols I El fin de una era, pudo haber sido más pero es hermoso de todas maneras. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 05/17/23 Full Review StephenPaul C The least funny final 25 episodes ever!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! F**king piece of sh*t!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

      John Doyle Globe and Mail There will never be anything else to come along with the exact right balance of deadpan comedy, corporate cynicism and full-blooded heart to fill the hole that The Office left behind. Apr 16, 2020 Full Review Linda Holmes NPR The Office has seemed lost, particularly by devoting substantial time to world-building Dwight's beet farm, a remnant of a failed spin-off effort. Feb 25, 2020 Full Review Matthew Gilbert Boston Globe It succumbed to the bane of American TV -- the endless more-more-more of anything good or popular, the twisting of characters into pretzels to simply keep them in motion, the cheap substitutes after lead actors depart. Feb 25, 2020 Full Review Kathryn Reklis The Christian Century As the show moves into its final seasons, the parody eases up and even Jim comes to realize that the office where he spends the majority of his waking hours is where the most significant relationships of his life will be formed. Aug 27, 2021 Full Review Nick Campbell TV.com It was just right. For as much as we complained about the latter half of the series and yearned for the Michael Scott years, the ending was more about the fact that you took a journey with these characters. Feb 25, 2020 Full Review Dustin Rowles Pajiba You get to the point where you can't stand the sight of the thing that you used to love, and there's a huge relief when you finally decide to end it. But it's then... that the things that you used to love so much decide to reappear. Feb 25, 2020 Full Review Read all reviews
