Is The Paper A Reboot Or A Spinoff Of The Office?
Meanwhile, Greg Daniels, the creator, has made it clear that The Paper is not a reboot of The Office. Instead, it’s a spinoff or a sister show. He does not prefer the word reboot because The Office ended beautifully, and the beloved characters and storylines had complete closure.
Greg has made it clear that he would never want to redo the show with a new and different cast because he thinks The Office had the luckiest and best cast on television to do that show. This is why the word reboot is false and not what The Paper is about. It’s a show set in the same universe.
