Amy Adams guest stars, Mindy Kaling writes, and The Office gets arguably its first truly classic episode. Join Seb as the first season of the show ends in style and sets us up nicely for season two.

The People Person’s Paper People will return later in January to get started on the second season! In the meantime, get in touch on @p4_podcast or @sebpatrick if you have any comments!
It’s most unusual episode of the first season so far, as Michael challenges the warehouse staff to a basketball game, with predictable (but amusing) results. Seb looks back at the episode that more than any other in the first year, marks the US show out as being distinct from its UK forebear.
Although technically now out of our “pilot” run, this podcast is still a work-in-progress, so if you’re listening and you have any feedback about the direction of the show, please get in touch on @p4_podcast or @sebpatrick.

The fourth episode of the first season is a pretty low-key affair, but it does feature Dwight hiding in a box. Join Seb for a look back at the show’s first ever Mike Schur episode - does it contain any hints of the greatness that would characterise his later work?

At least two people said they quite liked the pilot run, so it looks like we’re doing this thing at least through to the end of the first season! Seb continues his run through The Office with an episode that, for the first time, deals with a plot the UK show couldn’t really have done.

Seb Patrick’s exploration of EVERY episode of The (American) Office moves on to the second episode, Diversity Day. Is this the episode where The Office truly found its feet? Or is it just another failed attempt to imitate the British show?

Writer and podcaster Seb Patrick starts a look back at EVERY episode of The (American) Office with the show’s 2005 pilot. Widely regarded as a disappointing opening instalment, the pilot was criticised for largely retreading old jokes and dialogue from the UK show rather than striking out on its own. But given that The Office would eventually turn into one of the classic sitcoms of its age, are there any seeds of brilliance in that first attempt?
