Why I’ll Never Get Over ‘The Office’

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at MMM chapter.

We all have one of those shows that just sticks with us. Something about the characters or the stories makes you develop this indescribable sense of connection that draws you back to it time and time again. For me, this show is “The Office”.

I have re-watched “The Office” in its entirety more times than I’d like to admit. I have, of course, watched and fallen in love with the characters and plots of other shows—shoutout to Downton Abbey—but the “The Office” will always have a special place in my heart. Maybe it’s the humor or the relatability of the seemingly everyday characters that makes me feel some type of way, but no matter how many times I repeat the series I laugh, cry, and find something new to love about every episode.

I think it’s rare to find a show that can relate to so many people and be so funny and special in itself. From quotes to jokes to all of those iconic “Jim looks at the camera faces”, there are so many memorable moments that will never let me get over “The Office”. To give you an idea of what keeps me coming back, I’ve compiled a list of just some of my favorite moments at Dunder Mifflin Scranton.
