Looking again on the collection, which ran from 2005 to 2013, Mindy says she believes present TV viewers could be offended by the jokes — and a lot of the characters “would be canceled.”
She continued, “The writers who I’m still in touch with now, we always talk about how so much of that show we probably couldn’t make now.”
Mindy added that for the reason that present wrapped, “tastes have changed” and “what offends people has changed so much now.”
And whereas she would not suppose the present would get made right now, she acknowledges that it is nonetheless massively in style amongst followers who rewatch the collection.
“I think that actually is one of the reasons the show is popular, because people feel like there’s something kind of fearless about it or taboo that it talks about on the show,” Mindy shared.
Although it would not sound like there will likely be an Office sequel anytime quickly, Mindy did dish on what she believes her character Kelly could be thus far.
“I think she would have quit Dunder Mifflin to become an influencer. And then probably be canceled almost immediately,” Mindy joked.
