Peacock unveiled a first look at the upcoming 'The Office' spinoff, titled 'The Paper', ahead of its September premiere. Teasing the show, star Domhnall Gleeson said the cast plays a group of "underdog" journalists trying to keep a dying Ohio newspaper alive.
In September, we’ll know whether or not The Office spin-off actually works. The Paper won’t premiere on broadcast TV like its predecessor—an unfortunate sign of the times, but Peacock probably still needs the subscriber boost to justify its existence.
Well, The Paper is the first proper entry into The Office-verse but surely it will not be the last. Who knows where this crew head next? Expect dispatches from thriving sectors such as video rental stores and travel agencies.
