Watching The Office got me through lockdown! These reunions are so wholesome. Wish they'd do an Indian version of the show - our office culture would be perfect for it 😄

The Office is timeless! But honestly, I wish they'd focus more on creating new content rather than these nostalgia trips. The magic was in that specific time and place.
