This U.S. adaptation -- set at a paper company based in Scranton, Pa. -- has a similar documentary style to that of the Ricky Gervais-led British original. It features the Dunder-Mifflin staff, which includes characters based on roles in the British show -- and, quite possibly, people with whom you work in your office. There's Jim, the likable employee who's a bit of an every man. Jim has a thing for receptionist-turned-sales-rep Pam -- because office romances are always a good idea! There's also Dwight, the co-worker who is successful but devoid of social skills and common sense.
Michael, Dwight and Jim set up a sting after a competing sales associate steals a client; Andy starts a band.
Michael freaks out when Darryl goes over his head and takes an idea to corporate; a Halloween costume contest puts the office in a competitive mood.
Michael invites the entire office to celebrate the christening of Pam and Jim's baby.
Erin and Gabe host a "Glee" viewing party; Michael is upset when people refer to Gabe as his boss; Andy becomes increasingly jealous.
