This U.S. adaptation -- set at a paper company based in Scranton, Pa. -- has a similar documentary style to that of the Ricky Gervais-led British original. It features the Dunder-Mifflin staff, which includes characters based on roles in the British show -- and, quite possibly, people with whom you work in your office. There's Jim, the likable employee who's a bit of an every man. Jim has a thing for receptionist-turned-sales-rep Pam -- because office romances are always a good idea! There's also Dwight, the co-worker who is successful but devoid of social skills and common sense.

Michael must recommend his own replacement when the company considers him for a corporate position; Pam must watch Jim and Karen have fun together at a company outing.

There's a new boss in town. Much to the dismay of Michael and many of the employees, Ryan returns to the Scranton branch of Dunder Mifflin to bring the company into the digital age.

Michael, Jim and Karen go to New York to interview for a job opening; in Scranton, the new regime institutes sweeping reforms; Jan brings exciting news.

Michael anticipates going to New York for the company's Website launch party; Dwight tries to sell more paper in one day than the Website does.
