Is Steve Carroll coming back? Because the show stunk after he left.

And I already know he wouldn't.

Just let it die. I finished rewatching the show for a fourth time last year and I am satisfied I won't ever watch it again. Though the jokes were amazing at the time, they haven't really aged well, especially the Jim/Dwight ones and constantly staring into the camera after the punch line. On the other hand, Ryan/Kelly and Tobi are simply brilliant.

Just let it die.

The UK is vastly superior in leaving shows dead once they've peaked.

This isn’t a reboot, it’s a sequel.

I don’t mind that they do it, I’m not as negative to the post-Carrell, but give me a brand new concept around it with brand new characters.

Dwight action show, sure, anything else, no f***ing way.

Most shows, you really don't want to see the original cast like 15-20 years later do you?

I mean, do you need to see the friends cast in their 50's with kids and whatever Joey would be up to?

I can get the Frasier reboot, but it's just him as he's moved back to Boston to reconnect with his son, in almost a reverse of when he returned to Seattle and reconnected with his dad, though unwillingly. Rest of the old cast not regulars in this.

Then there is remaking shows with new cast. Like Party of Five, Wonder Years, Charmed, etc.

Didn't watch the office, so don't care to catch this. Who is returning?
