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.

Past and present Dunder Mifflin employees gather for a wedding and a final round of interviews.

When a documentary crew comes to Dunder Mifflin to learn about modern management, manager Michael Scott tries to paint a happy picture of his domain, but his jokes keep falling flat.

When forced to pick a cheaper health care plan, Michael, rather than lose popularity points with his staff, shirks the responsibility to Dwight.

Michael tries to raise employee morale with a birthday party amid rumors of downsizing.
