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 Michael suggests a game of "Yankee Swap" with the Secret Santa gifts, everyone fights over Michael's gift to Ryan, bringing morale to an all-time low.

When Michael takes the Mifflin crew on a motivational harbor cruise, things get out of hand and Michael ends up in the brig.

After he has an accident while using a grill, injured Michael demands attention from the entire Dunder Mifflin office.

Because Jim fears Michael will tell the others he likes Pam, he pretends to be Michael's best friend.
