Everything The Office related is welcome. The show is over so this community is mostly for nostalgia, reposts but even the occasional news about both the UK and the US versions.

Be civil.

People really forget he was in The 40 Year Old Virgin, which saved his career.

The Office was about to be cancelled after season 1, but then some exec saw 40 Year Old Virgin, and how funny Steve can be, so pushed for The Office to be renewed, and the rest is history.

Imagine how different things would be if The Office never had the chance to become a cult hit.

Great movie. However the ending makes me uncomfortable to no end

Anchor man?!

Millennial, he always reminds me of Bruce Allmighty. Although I love The Office and watched it a lot – Michael is simply so unique that my brain doesn't connect him to Steve Carrell.

Am millennial. Know him from The Daily Show.

He was on The Daily Show from 99 to 2005. That's right in the millennial wheelhouse really. That's where I know him from.
