The Office, a series of references for a generation

The office in this hit comedy chronicles the follies of disgruntled office workers, led by their incompetent boss Michael Scott, at the Dunder Mifflin paper sales company.. Within her period between award periods, she became the winner of the 2006 Emmy for Outstanding Comedy Series, made stars out of Steve Carell and Ed Helms, among others.

Mindy Kaling, acknowledges that at the time of the premiere The office some topics that they address now may not be very well received.

“With the writers I’m still in contact with, we always talk about how much of that show we probably couldn’t do now. Tastes have changed, and honestly, what offends people has changed a lot now. I think it’s actually a of the reasons why the program is popular, because people feel that there is something intrepid about it or a taboo that he talks about in the program”, said the interpreter of “Kelly Kapoor”, who assured in an interview that her character today I would be an influencer.

Although the series ended 10 years ago, its followers keep it among the top comedy series on Netflix, a platform on which it is listed as one of the favorites. “Andy Bernard,” played by Ed Helms, has disappointed fans as he doesn’t let on the fact that a reunion for this esteemed cast is on the horizon. “Ladies and gentlemen, breaking news: there is no meeting of office. At least not that I know of,” Helms said during an event this past summer of 2022.

An actor beyond a single character

Success is also a drag on a career and is something that crosses the mind of Rainn Wilson, the actor who is known for his role as the neurotic Dwight Schrute, as he declared for Collider.

“Obviously most people know me by The officeand they always will, and that will be with me until death,” Wilson said. “My epitaph will say, ‘The guy who played Dwight.’ But I did dozens and dozens of roles before I played Dwight. and I’ve done dozens of roles after Dwight,” he added, replicating the burden this role places on him.

“I would say my favorite role, or one I would like to be remembered for, is from the James Gunn movie Super. It was very low budget. We shot it super fast in quaint Shreveport, Louisiana. But I think the combination of humor , darkness, tragedy, insane imagination, it is touched by the finger of God. I think it is an extraordinary work and I am very proud to have participated in it, “added the American actor regarding his professional achievements.

Although getting to such a successful project has its edges and one of them is being able to enter this game of comedy in which a documentary of life in that office is being emulated all the time, that rhythm is carried throughout the series. In the case of Jeena Fischer, since she was called to a casting, she had to put herself in the shoes of Pam Beesly and acted exactly as she would have done, since there was no script.

“My take on Pam’s character was that she didn’t have any training, so she didn’t know how to do a good interview. So, I gave very short one-word answers. I tried really hard not to be funny or smart, because I thought comedy would come out of real human reactions. to the situation. And he was great. It was great. We clicked quickly. And they liked that version,” Fisher explained of his first character development.
