TheOffice creator Greg Daniels explains how he would tackle a reboot of the iconic sitcom if it were to happen. 'I don't think it would be the same characters. I think it would just be sort of like an extension of the universe...'
Greg Daniels, the creator of the US-version of The Office, explains how he would hypothetically approach a reboot of the hit show. A true television and comedy legend, Daniels not only created The Office, but he also co-created both Parks and Recreation and King of the Hill. The impressive screenwriter/producer/director even boasts writing credits on Saturday Night Live and The Simpsons.
Arguably his most famous and most quoted show, the mockumentary workplace sitcom The Office first aired on NBC in March 2005. Daniels adapted the show from the BBC show of the same name that ran from 2001-2003, an ambitious task considering the universal acclaim that the original show enjoyed.
"I can't tell whether fans would want more of it, and when I say more of it, I don't think it would be the same characters. I think it would just be sort of like an extension of the universe, you know what I mean, like the way [The] Mandalorian is like an extension of Star Wars. But I don't know if that would be something people would want or not, it's hard to tell."
The success of The Office explains Daniel's amenable willingness to ponder about a possible reboot. However, the now-inconceivable resistance viewers initially displayed to both The Office and the first season of Parks and Recreation before the shows received critical acclaim might explain his amiable apprehension towards the idea. He admits in the interview that he's unsure if the possible achievement of a show is worth having to endure the discouraging negativity at its beginning.
Undoubtedly, however, the millions of fans of Daniel's work would enthusiastically insist that a gem like The Office is emphatically worth any initial pessimism from the public. And one would be remiss to disagree – his obvious record of television success suggests that a reboot would easily join the legendary ranks of his previous work. With the immense influence of his work, Daniels irrevocably shaped the future of comedy in television.
