You wouldn't know 90 00:03:41,544 --> 00:03:44,544 Speaker 2: because you haven't seen either, But that is like a 91 00:03:44,624 --> 00:03:47,624 Speaker 2: very beloved show. It ran from two thousand and five 92 00:03:47,664 --> 00:03:52,584 Speaker 2: to twenty thirteen, and it still gets widely watched, quoted, 93 00:03:52,704 --> 00:03:55,584 Speaker 2: talked about today, used by people to find love in 94 00:03:55,624 --> 00:03:57,624 Speaker 2: a nefarious way, like yourself. 95 00:03:57,464 --> 00:04:00,264 Speaker 1: Used on TikTok all over right, dog feed is still rundom. 96 00:04:01,344 --> 00:04:03,184 Speaker 3: It's twenty twenty five exactly. 97 00:04:03,224 --> 00:04:04,944 Speaker 2: I think when they were doing like the press for this, 98 00:04:05,224 --> 00:04:06,544 Speaker 2: they were sending out you know how like we get 99 00:04:06,584 --> 00:04:08,904 Speaker 2: all the press releases, screeners, all that sort of stuff 100 00:04:09,224 --> 00:04:11,504 Speaker 2: and to hype up the show. They were saying how 101 00:04:11,544 --> 00:04:14,344 Speaker 2: there's still millions and millions of mentions of the Office 102 00:04:14,384 --> 00:04:17,344 Speaker 2: across all social media platforms, like to this day and 103 00:04:17,384 --> 00:04:19,704 Speaker 2: this show ended in twenty thirteen, Like that is a 104 00:04:19,824 --> 00:04:20,744 Speaker 2: crazy legacy. 105 00:04:21,224 --> 00:04:21,544 Speaker 1: Yeah. 106 00:04:21,584 --> 00:04:23,864 Speaker 2: So the good news for fans of the Office, of 107 00:04:23,904 --> 00:04:24,904 Speaker 2: which you are not one. 108 00:04:25,264 --> 00:04:29,544 Speaker 3: Is that potential shaming that's about you brought it up. 109 00:04:29,824 --> 00:04:31,024 Speaker 2: You could have just said I haven't seen it. I 110 00:04:31,024 --> 00:04:32,784 Speaker 2: would have skated past that. It's the fact that you're 111 00:04:32,864 --> 00:04:33,904 Speaker 2: using it to lure men. 112 00:04:33,904 --> 00:04:36,104 Speaker 3: Which is a whole situation. The problem is me. 113 00:04:37,744 --> 00:04:39,984 Speaker 2: So this new show, the Paper, which came out in 114 00:04:40,064 --> 00:04:43,624 Speaker 2: Australia on Binge today, is a follow up of the iconic. 115 00:04:43,424 --> 00:04:46,304 Speaker 4: Show and of eight sales products made out of paper, 116 00:04:46,824 --> 00:04:51,904 Speaker 4: toilet tissue, toilet seat protectors, and local newspapers. 117 00:04:52,864 --> 00:04:54,744 Speaker 1: And that is in order of quality. 118 00:04:55,544 --> 00:04:58,344 Speaker 5: My name is Ned Samson.

I hope it's 125 00:05:08,384 --> 00:05:10,624 Speaker 5: not too disruptive to have me come in and sort 126 00:05:10,624 --> 00:05:11,384 Speaker 5: of shake everything up. 127 00:05:11,544 --> 00:05:14,664 Speaker 1: Oh no, no, don't be So that's that's a gazing. 128 00:05:16,504 --> 00:05:20,384 Speaker 5: Welcome, volunteers to your first staff meeting as reporters for 129 00:05:20,464 --> 00:05:22,944 Speaker 5: the Toledo truth Teller. How many of you have actually 130 00:05:22,944 --> 00:05:24,144 Speaker 5: written for a paper before? 131 00:05:25,624 --> 00:05:26,944 Speaker 3: I run a paper in junior high. 132 00:05:27,064 --> 00:05:29,504 Speaker 5: Not quite the same thing you've tweeted. 133 00:05:29,624 --> 00:05:30,624 Speaker 3: I'm in a group text. 134 00:05:30,984 --> 00:05:35,984 Speaker 5: This is terrific. Seven highly motivated, tenacious buck eyes are 135 00:05:35,984 --> 00:05:39,304 Speaker 5: out there hunting for news. You'd be a fool to 136 00:05:39,344 --> 00:05:39,944 Speaker 5: bet against that. 137 00:05:41,504 --> 00:05:44,944 Speaker 3: I will make this unusable use that. 138 00:05:46,904 --> 00:05:50,104 Speaker 2: So it's set in Ohio and the same documentary crew, 139 00:05:50,824 --> 00:05:53,144 Speaker 2: because if you've seen the Office, it's about this documentary crew. 140 00:05:53,224 --> 00:05:55,384 Speaker 2: It's filmed as a documentary. They come into this like 141 00:05:55,784 --> 00:06:01,344 Speaker 2: tiny little office and just follows the characters of the characters, 142 00:06:01,384 --> 00:06:03,344 Speaker 2: the people who work in that office in their lives 143 00:06:03,544 --> 00:06:06,144 Speaker 2: and it's meant to be like this very mundane setting, 144 00:06:06,424 --> 00:06:08,664 Speaker 2: but it's actually like wildly funny and the people in 145 00:06:08,704 --> 00:06:10,784 Speaker 2: that office are crazy and the pay but has a 146 00:06:10,864 --> 00:06:14,104 Speaker 2: very similar vibe. So it takes place at this very 147 00:06:14,184 --> 00:06:18,264 Speaker 2: tiny Midwestern newspaper called the Toledo truth Teller, a very 148 00:06:18,344 --> 00:06:21,264 Speaker 2: historic newspaper that's about to shut down because spoiler alert, 149 00:06:21,264 --> 00:06:25,224 Speaker 2: no one's buying newspapers anymore. And so the same mockumentary 150 00:06:25,304 --> 00:06:28,744 Speaker 2: crew from the original office comes to this little midwestern 151 00:06:28,784 --> 00:06:33,464 Speaker 2: newspaper to chronicle like this team trying to bring it 152 00:06:33,544 --> 00:06:36,624 Speaker 2: back because we have Ned Samson, who's the new editor 153 00:06:36,664 --> 00:06:39,824 Speaker 2: in chief of the Toledo truth Teller, played by John Olgileeson. 154 00:06:40,304 --> 00:06:41,184 Speaker 2: Do you do. 155 00:06:41,144 --> 00:06:41,584 Speaker 4: You do it? 156 00:06:41,704 --> 00:06:44,144 Speaker 2: Recognize him? Like I guess people know him from iconic 157 00:06:44,184 --> 00:06:46,504 Speaker 2: films like X Marketer. So many people would know him 158 00:06:46,504 --> 00:06:49,024 Speaker 2: from About Time, so many people would know him as 159 00:06:49,024 --> 00:06:51,344 Speaker 2: one of the Weasley brothers from Harry Potter like he's 160 00:06:52,024 --> 00:06:54,784 Speaker 2: so he plays Ned. And the other really good bit 161 00:06:54,824 --> 00:06:57,864 Speaker 2: of casting is that Sabrina Imbacatory. I never say her 162 00:06:57,904 --> 00:07:01,344 Speaker 2: name right, but you would know her because she plays 163 00:07:01,424 --> 00:07:04,104 Speaker 2: Valentina in the second season of The White Lotus. 164 00:07:04,224 --> 00:07:10,344 Speaker 3: Oh yes, I don't think I could trust any more. 165 00:07:11,144 --> 00:07:13,504 Speaker 3: It's a TV, it's a flower, it's a show. 166 00:07:14,224 --> 00:07:16,544 Speaker 2: So she plays Valentina in season two and she was 167 00:07:16,544 --> 00:07:19,304 Speaker 2: one of the huge breakout stars from that show. So 168 00:07:19,344 --> 00:07:23,104 Speaker 2: she plays es Morelda Grand, a writer at the paper 169 00:07:23,224 --> 00:07:25,184 Speaker 2: who's kind of very set in her ways. And so 170 00:07:25,344 --> 00:07:30,024 Speaker 2: the whole show is this mockumentary crew following these people 171 00:07:30,104 --> 00:07:32,464 Speaker 2: as all these like volunteer journalists come in and try 172 00:07:32,464 --> 00:07:35,384 Speaker 2: and resurrect the Paper. And it's done by Greg Daniels, 173 00:07:35,384 --> 00:07:37,384 Speaker 2: who did the original Office. So it's got that same 174 00:07:37,464 --> 00:07:40,984 Speaker 2: flair and that same comedy styling and that same kind 175 00:07:41,024 --> 00:07:44,664 Speaker 2: of vibe to it. And it's a huge legacy coming 176 00:07:44,664 --> 00:07:46,424 Speaker 2: off the back of the Office, one of the most 177 00:07:46,584 --> 00:07:49,704 Speaker 2: iconic comedies of all time. But it's really good. 178 00:07:49,864 --> 00:07:51,704 Speaker 1: Okay, And I was gonna ask you, is it one 179 00:07:51,704 --> 00:07:53,904 Speaker 1: of those situations where you're a little bit worried to 180 00:07:53,944 --> 00:07:55,424 Speaker 1: mess with perfection? Yeah. 181 00:07:55,504 --> 00:07:58,264 Speaker 2: I think if they tried to recreate The Office or 182 00:07:58,264 --> 00:08:01,144 Speaker 2: even rebooted, I don't think it can be properly rebooted 183 00:08:01,264 --> 00:08:03,704 Speaker 2: this time. I think time has passed. It's time to 184 00:08:03,744 --> 00:08:07,024 Speaker 2: tell new stories. But what's more important, has just got 185 00:08:07,024 --> 00:08:09,664 Speaker 2: the essence of it. And so if you loved the 186 00:08:09,784 --> 00:08:12,704 Speaker 2: style of the Office, and you just love Greg Daniel's 187 00:08:12,744 --> 00:08:14,944 Speaker 2: storytelling in his way of like making your show, then 188 00:08:14,984 --> 00:08:17,064 Speaker 2: you'd really love the Paper. But just come into it 189 00:08:17,104 --> 00:08:19,584 Speaker 2: thinking like it's like the Office, but not the Office, 190 00:08:19,624 --> 00:08:21,184 Speaker 2: Like you've got to watch it as its own show. 191 00:08:21,464 --> 00:08:24,304 Speaker 2: But in saying that, there are some surprises, especially in 192 00:08:24,304 --> 00:08:27,384 Speaker 2: the first episode. Four fans of the Office. There might 193 00:08:27,464 --> 00:08:28,984 Speaker 2: be a few little nods, there might be a few 194 00:08:28,984 --> 00:08:31,984 Speaker 2: little cameos. I don't want to spoil anything, but yeah, 195 00:08:32,064 --> 00:08:33,464 Speaker 2: I feel like it's gonna be one of those ones 196 00:08:33,464 --> 00:08:35,664 Speaker 2: that die hard Office fans love or hate because some 197 00:08:35,704 --> 00:08:38,824 Speaker 2: people get really protective of their family shay. Yeah. Well again, 198 00:08:38,864 --> 00:08:41,664 Speaker 2: I think because they've created a whole new world with 199 00:08:41,944 --> 00:08:44,904 Speaker 2: just a similar type of storytelling, it doesn't feel like 200 00:08:44,944 --> 00:08:47,304 Speaker 2: it's ruined, Like it's not going to be the same 201 00:08:47,344 --> 00:08:49,664 Speaker 2: situation with sex and the City and just like that fans, 202 00:08:50,424 --> 00:08:52,784 Speaker 2: which you know, they're not bringing back all the same 203 00:08:52,864 --> 00:08:55,384 Speaker 2: characters and like breaking people up and killing people and 204 00:08:55,424 --> 00:08:57,624 Speaker 2: that sort of stuff to have new stories like and 205 00:08:57,664 --> 00:08:59,904 Speaker 2: you can also go into so for people like you, you 206 00:08:59,864 --> 00:09:02,424 Speaker 2: can also go into it not watching The Office, okay, 207 00:09:02,544 --> 00:09:05,464 Speaker 2: because there's a few little callbacks to it, but you 208 00:09:05,544 --> 00:09:08,264 Speaker 2: don't need them to enjoy the jokesmouth story. You can 209 00:09:08,304 --> 00:09:09,904 Speaker 2: go in with completely fresh eyes. 210 00:09:10,704 --> 00:09:13,384 Speaker 3: All right, Well, maybe i'll toss that up this weekend. 211 00:09:13,464 --> 00:09:16,504 Speaker 2: Do I start first?

Is the American style of humor versus the 293 00:12:38,864 --> 00:12:39,544 Speaker 1: British style. 294 00:12:39,664 --> 00:12:40,664 Speaker 3: Yeah, so a lot of. 295 00:12:40,584 --> 00:12:43,584 Speaker 1: The American comedians, they obviously have that very bulshy, like 296 00:12:43,664 --> 00:12:45,304 Speaker 1: it is what it is. It's just in your face 297 00:12:45,384 --> 00:12:47,464 Speaker 1: kind of comedy.

Yeah, have amazing chemistry. 299 00:12:51,904 --> 00:12:54,624 Speaker 3: I bet they do. Of course they do. It's chemistry 300 00:12:54,624 --> 00:12:54,984 Speaker 3: and all the. 301 00:12:54,904 --> 00:12:58,704 Speaker 1: Ways, Laura, there's chemistry in there's like sexual chemistry, and 302 00:12:58,784 --> 00:13:02,304 Speaker 1: there's also like that tugget cheek human chemistry.

But like my generation, 305 00:13:06,744 --> 00:13:10,384 Speaker 1: I think wouldn't have viewed Benedict Cumberbatch as like a 306 00:13:10,224 --> 00:13:11,024 Speaker 1: sex symbol. 307 00:13:11,264 --> 00:13:13,784 Speaker 3: What I think? Okay, maybe this is just what I 308 00:13:13,824 --> 00:13:14,544 Speaker 3: took away from this. 309 00:13:14,664 --> 00:13:17,704 Speaker 2: It's what he's known for mostly being a sex symbol. 310 00:13:18,024 --> 00:13:19,664 Speaker 1: To me, I just think of the guy who couldn't 311 00:13:19,664 --> 00:13:20,744 Speaker 1: pronounce penguin in the. 312 00:13:20,704 --> 00:13:24,464 Speaker 2: Jennessey Dokay, he feels bad about that.
