I've noted a lot of chatter over the past six months of this idea of something 'like' THE OFFICE being re-introduced. Same people? Well...no. The idea is the production team would be brought back.
So these are my seven ideas for the new show.....if it were to be brought back into some new reality:
1. Close the door on the paper industry, and make this a small strip mall (five shops in some small mall facility). One steel building, and a parking lot with lamps that continually blink. The building was originally a Dunder-Miffin paper store which went out of business, was remodeled by a Lebanese millionaire who married a former 'Bay of Thunder' TV show blonde gal.
2. Introduce in episode one a mall-cop, and at the end of the season....admit the fact that the mall management never hired a mall-cop, and this guy is an escapee from a mental institute...who sleeps in the maintenance back-closet.
3. Allow one of the shops to be a zero-profit business, and admit it's more of a money-laundering operation than a legit business.
4. Have four retirees to have rotating episodes where they make trouble for the mall.
5. Allow one of the shops to fail every four episodes and a new business to arrive and fail four episodes later as well....over and over.
6. Allow the coffee shop to be run by cannabis enthusiasts who secretly sell their product under special names.
7. Act as if the whole thing is a reality show.
