Spinoff trailer for 'The Office' on Peacock raises apprehension in me
Get ready for a fresh dose of mockumentary comedy as Peacock prepares to premiere its new series, "The Paper," on September 4, 2025.
Set in the struggling small-town newspaper, The Toledo Truth Teller, in Toledo, Ohio, "The Paper" follows the daily chaos of a newsroom trying to survive in the digital age. The plot revolves around Ned Sampson, played by Domhnall Gleeson, an optimistic editor-in-chief who seeks to save the floundering paper by recruiting a group of volunteer reporters, many of whom lack proper journalism experience.
The series is a spinoff of the popular show "The Office," with the original documentary crew now filming this new subject. Fans of "The Office" will be thrilled to see Oscar Nuñez reprising his role as Oscar Martinez, now working in accounting at The Truth Teller. Other notable cast members include Sabrina Impacciatore, Chelsea Frei, Melvin Gregg, Gbemisola Ikumelo, Alex Edelman, Ramona Young, and Tim Key.
Recurring guest stars include Tracy Letts, Nancy Lenehan, Molly Ephraim, and Allan Havey. The series will have a four-episode premiere, with new episodes airing on Thursdays.
If you're looking for something to watch while waiting for "The Paper" to arrive, Peacock has a round-up of the best shows to check out. And for those who might be interested, Michael Koman, co-creator of "Nathan For You," is also involved in "The Paper."
For those who may have missed it, the trailer for "The Paper" is already available to watch. The series promises to capture the dysfunction, awkwardness, and heart of a newsroom, much like its predecessor, "The Office."
It's worth noting that while some fans consider the first season of "The Office" not its strongest outing, "The Paper" promises to bring a fresh perspective to the mockumentary genre. So, mark your calendars for September 4, 2025, and get ready to dive into the world of "The Paper" exclusively on Peacock.
