What is The Office?
The Office is an award-winning American television comedy that portrays the daily lives of office employees in the Scranton, Pennsylvania branch of the fictional Dunder Mifflin Paper Company. Although fictional and scripted, the mockumentary takes the form of a documentary, with the presence of the camera openly acknowledged.
Based on the British series of the same name, it was adapted for U.S. audiences by executive producer Greg Daniels, a veteran writer for Saturday Night Live, King of the Hill and The Simpsons. Original series creators Ricky Gervais and Stephen Merchant, who wrote The Convict episode, have production credits. It is co-produced by Greg Daniels' Deedle-Dee Productions and Reveille Productions, in association with NBC Universal Television Studios.
The show debuted on NBC as a midseason replacement on March 24, 2005, replacing the short–lived sitcom Committed. In 2007 Turner Broadcasting System (TBS) started broadcasting episodes once a week, and will begin broadcasting the series five days a week in 2009.
