The Office's highly anticipated reboot should bring back beloved characters like Dwight, Angela, Kevin, Andy, Oscar, and Toby However, Michael, Jim, Pam, Stanley, and Creed may not be necessary for the revival
Summary
Dwight Schrute should return for The Office reboot as his character had a significant impact on the original series and his story is open for further development.
Angela Martin/Schrute's growth and comedic timing make her an excellent choice for the reboot, and she should definitely make a comeback.
Kevin Malone and Andy Bernard, with their endearing and occasionally controversial storylines, have the potential for further development in the reboot. They should also return.
The Office is set to make a comeback after a decade since its final episode aired, with the return of six characters and the exclusion of four. Considered one of the most successful sitcoms in history, The Office had a nine-season run over eight years, amassing a devoted fan base. In fact, Rolling Stone recognized it as one of the top 100 TV shows of all time in 2016. Throughout its run, The Office garnered various accolades, including four Primetime Emmy Awards.
Given its immense popularity, it comes as no surprise that The Office is finally getting its much-anticipated reboot, with original showrunner Greg Daniels leading the charge. However, rebooting the series will present significant challenges. In today's cultural landscape, rewatching The Office reveals some harsh realities, making it uncertain if the show would be considered acceptable by today's standards. Additionally, many characters had ideal endings, which revisiting in a reboot could potentially destroy. Thus, while there are six characters who should make a comeback, it is equally important to exclude four characters from the reboot.
