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.

After Jan busts Michael for having a "movie Monday," Angela pushes Dwight to make a play for Michael's job.

Michael tries to help the staff grieve after learning that the former regional manager has died.

Dwight takes Ryan on his first sales call, subjecting him to an outrageous series of tests along the way.

Michael urges the staff to support Kelly and attend a local celebration of the Hindu Festival of Lights.
