'The Office' Creator Reportedly Moving Forward With Reboot After Realizing U.S. Political Climate At All-Time Hilarity

LOS ANGELES, CA — In a surprise announcement that sent shockwaves throughout the entertainment world, The Office creator Greg Daniels is reportedly moving forward with a reboot of the beloved NBC sitcom after realizing the U.S. political climate is at an all-time high hilarity.

Daniels, who couldn't help but notice the current state of the country's presidency, cabinet, and Congress, knew the time was right for new episodes of The Office.

"Yeah, I always said I wouldn't bring it back unless there was a situation even more ripe for humor than the original series," Daniels said. "When I saw what was going on with the whole Russia/Ukraine thing, it was like a sign from God. And then, of course, things got even funnier with the midterm elections, so here we are."

The new season reportedly will have a political office setting in Washington D.C. with all-new characters working at a branch under the Dunder Mifflin administration. Although fan-favorites Jim, Pam, Dwight, and Michael Scott are all expected to make at least a cameo appearance in the first episode as they attend a mandatory meeting at the White House.

At publishing time, Aaron Sorkin had announced he was in pre-production for a reboot of The West Wing as the actual events of 2022 made the fictional Bartlet administration look restrained and competent.
