If it's something akin to How I Met Your Father, I could be on board. Not so much in style or tone surely, but taking the same skeleton that worked in the original and applying it to new people (and in this case, to a new location too). I think it would be a bummer to just go back to Dunder Mifflin Scranton and rehash all those characters. Workplace comedy isn't so far out there, real workplaces have become even more absurd over the last ten years, and if it has light callbacks to the original but can do its own thing too, then I'll check it out.
That's the optimist in me. We'll see how hard he gets bodyslammed when this comes to fruition!
It's almost certainly going to just inundate the viewer with canned punchlines about work from home, COVID, and Zoom.
Literally nothing new and nothing even funny.
