Some of my favourite episodes consist of the ones featured on Meredith 😂 especially when Michael attempts to put her in rehab and when she gets ran over by his car. Oh and who can forgot the bat episode?! 😂 has anyone watched Brooklyn 99? It was great to see the guy who played Daryl, and his comedy is fantastic! You see how deadpan Daryl actually is 😂 and so many actors from the office feature in the episodes too! Has anyone watched the paper? I’ve got them recorded on my sky box and I’ve heard mixed reviews!

There's a fair few, Daryl as Pontiac Bandit is inspired.
Andy is Donger from USPIS!!
Oscar is a doctor in B99, and he writes the crosswords in the Paper.

Meredith is the police station cleaner.
The guy Jan and Michael have a business meeting with is a carnival in B99.
And a few other minor characters.
Also Cousin Mose is one of creators of B99. He also wrote much of the episodes of the Office.

Love love love US Office, BUT... and this is a me problem not a show problem... haven't watched the final two episodes. If I never watch the ending, then it doesn't ever end, right?

Did the same with Brooklyn 99. Fingers in ears la la la.

I have watched them but I sometimes skip them on the rewatch and just go back to the begining before it ends 😂

I usually hate shows that last 9 seasons, all the writers get replaced over time and the magic disappears. So the first time I watched the office I watched season 9 first.

It ruined the entire will they/won't they of Jim and Pam, let me tell you! 2021 me... sigh. If only she knew.

I really feel like I’ve found my people here 🥲 the podcast is great! You learn so much history about the show and about each episode. Mindy and toby would actually be sat in the office and in the back room writing for the show! And jenna and John didn’t want anyone else to be Pam and Jim because they got along so great at their auditions and only really wanted the roles if it was with each other. Angela and jenna did a great job at making it seemed like they really hated each other with their characters and they’re the best of friends!

mose was inspired by a real life dating Amish programme where they came into the modern world and the guy I’m sure was called Mose too! He’s one of my favourite not major characters too 😂 I tried to watch superstore and I reallyyyyy couldn’t take to it. I was gutted that 99 finished as it’s become a firm favourite of mine now, but without captain holt you can’t bring it back. Does anyone have any recommendations of shows that has the same vibes as office and 99?

Watched a couple of episodes on Minimum Wage n seems good so far.
I tried watching Tires too but wasn't for me.

If you've not watched IT Crowd or Black Books or Green Wing, would recommend.

I also want to rewatch Scrubs from the very beginning as really want to watch the reboot, but I already pay for so many subscriptions that can't justify another one.

When Michael makes Ryan come in early to do something and M tells R to bring him a breakfast sandwich and when R gets there the 'something' was just bringing the breakfast sandwich 😂

Character progression over 9 seasons: Kevin edition.

I think they jumped the shark with Kevin by the end of the show, and made him too dumb to function. It stopped being funny and just became bizarre.

Good point about the poker. He was also in a band and booking gigs, he wasn't super successful but he had stuff going on in his life.
