One of the fundamental aspects of The Office is that it takes place in an environment where the characters constantly had to interact. Dunder Mifflin allowed for the cast to take advantage of not only verbal comedy, but also physical comedy. From the hilarious testimonials, to Kevin spilling his chili, to Dwight finding drugs in the parking lot, interactions at everybody's favorite paper company are key to the show's humor.

With the world going stir crazy in self-isolation, some people have taken to imagining what The Office might have been like without, well, the office. One couple in Utah even made a parody of the show's intro about working from home that featured their pets! More recently, Twitter user Brett Meiselas shared another parody of the workplace comedy, which features a realistic look at what a lot of people's work situations might look like right now.

Check out the video below.

The usual jingle is business as usual, but then it cuts to all of the character's testimonials played like they are having a video conference, something that a lot of co-workers are dealing with due to having to work from home The video is great, but I don't think the show would have been quite as funny without everyone together at Dunder Mifflin.
