The new The Office spin-off series won't be a reboot, according to showrunner Greg Daniels, but a series set in the same universe.
The Big Picture When reports began rolling in regarding NBC developing a new version of The Office, audiences were excited to learn more about the potential project. One of the rumored ideas for the concept of the new series was a reboot of the story where Michael Scott and the Stanford branch of the Dunder Mifflin Paper Company. But, if a new The Office series is approved by the network, that won't be the case.
"I don’t like to think of anything as a reboot, you know what I mean? Because I feel like we ended that story beautifully. The characters had closure. I would never want to redo that same show with a different cast, because I think we got the luckiest cast, the best cast ever, in TV, to do that show. So the notion of a reboot is not of interest.
The sitcom has been extremely successful for almost twenty years, with viewers loving it when it was originally aired on NBC, to new generations of fans joining the fun through the show's various streaming homes. Michael Scott's leadership changed the lives of employees such as Dwight Schrute and Andy Bernard , in a story where a company that sold paper for a living regularly delivered some of the funniest moments in network television history at the time.
