The Office continues to go down as one of the most well-known and humorous shows in existence. The cast plays a huge part in making the show as funny as possible, with all their comedic timing, facial expressions, and improv.
They play a diverse group of characters in The Office that never leave room for a dull moment. Their characters all have their own strange quirks, personalities, and varying interests that make each episode entertaining. Based on those interests and traits, they would probably watch some popular shows today.
Kelly - The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills
Kelly is known for her bubbly attitude that leads to her constant talking 24/7. She lives for gossip, celebrity news and entertainment, and all things fashion and glitz. This is why her favorite show would probably be The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills.
Real Housewives is all about the lives of the lavish women around the country and is full of drama and gossip. It includes some big-name celebrities going about their regular daily routine of business, family life, and disputes. Kelly would probably enjoy watching this because of the buzz around the show, as she does like to stay on the trends. She'd like the luxurious lifestyles and fashion displayed in the show and probably try to recreate it herself in some way.
Gabe - Two Sentence Horror Stories
Gabe is a character The Office fans feel bad for because he was seen as a bit outsider. His a humorously awkward personality, and no one ever took his interests seriously. He is known to be a lover of horror movies and series, which is why Two Sentence Horror Stories would be his cup of tea.
As fans see throughout the show, Gabe has a strange fascination with horror themes. In the Halloween episode, "Spooked," he shows the office staff a video of a random montage of different gross and horrifying things. He is also explained to have made Erin watch horror movies with him every time they watch something. Two Sentence Horror Stories is a collection of different short films filled with twisted stories and creepy plots in each episode, which Gabe would probably be into.
Oscar - Queer Eye
Oscar is the only main character fans see in the show representing the LGBTQ+ community, but he was a little bit shy about it. Even after he was out to his fellow employees, he tended to keep that part of him to himself due to the office workers sometimes making a bit of a mockery about it. That, however, is exactly why Queer Eye should be his go-to.
Queer Eye is all about five gay men, who are professional artists and workers who use their gifts to help others gain confidence in themselves. This is the perfect show for Oscar to go home and binge after another chaotic day at the office. He lacks confidence in himself, allowing people to walk all over him, and shies away from confrontation. The Fab 5 would motivate him to defend himself and be proud of who he is.
Kevin - Never Have I Ever
Kevin is not only notorious for having one of the most iconic food moments in The Office, but he's always there to laugh at inappropriate subjects and make everyone a little bit uncomfortable. Despite being geared for a younger age group, Kevin's favorite would likely be is Never Have I Ever due to its cringe comedy.
Since the viewers are told that Kevin's favorite movie is American Pie 2, they can tell that he is probably prone to a bit of juvenile humor (since that is what the movie is full of). Similar to Never Have I Ever, American Pie 2 is also another coming-of-age story all about navigating the rough waters of puberty and sexuality. Kevin would appreciate the innuendos and laugh at all the inappropriate jokes. Despite it being a little out of his age range, it fits maturity-wise for him.
Andy - Zoey's Extraordinary Playlist
Andy is an eccentric and outgoing individual who attempts to befriend everyone. As friendly as he is, he has an explosive temper, punching the wall and kicking trash cans. He is also a big fan of musical theater and loves to sing, which is why Zoey's Extraordinary Playlist would be his proud favorite.
Zoey's Extraordinary Playlist is a fun twist on the usual musical series, in which the main character Zoey begins to hear other people's thoughts and feelings through song. Not only does Andy loves musical theater and all things music, but he also struggles a bit with his own emotions, such as temper and telling Erin how he feels about her. He would enjoy watching this show and probably be inspired to express himself through his own songs.
Ryan - Ozark
Ryan went through a slow transformation during the show. However, he always was a character with big dreams and expectations. The way he maneuvered his way to the top all the way from his temp position was surprising, but the power trip sent him spiraling. His favorite show would probably have themes related to his own life but dramatically over-the-top, such as Ozark.
In Ozark, the main character is a powerful individual walking on thin ice. When his wrong-doings of money laundering and fraud were found, he risked losing everything he held dear. Ryan could relate this to his own rough time with fraud and going from the top all the way back to the bottom once again because of it. Seeing as Ryan is a bit of drama-king, he would enjoy watching Ozark and reminiscing about his wrong times.
Dwight - The OA
Dwight is the ultimate nerd and know-it-all in the show. He loves to be the hero and sees every scenario as his own personal mission. He expresses his love for many bizarre things that no one else seems to understand, especially his extreme fascination for all things sci-fi—which is why The OA would be his favorite.
Dwight has displayed his love for sci-fi by playing his online games, cosplaying as his favorite sci-fi characters, and speaking about his belief and fascination with androids and zombies. Dwight would enjoy The OA because it would appeal to his ion for missions. The OA has themes of sci-fi and the supernatural and follows the main character as she returns from a mysterious dimension and recruits others to help her rescue other abductees.
Pam - Meet Your Makers Showdown
Pam worked at the office, but she actually was an amazing artist. In fact, she probably could have pursued it as an alternative career, although she cared too much about her fellow employees to leave. She probably enjoys working on her art when she isn't at the office and would probably love watching Meet Your Makers Showdown.
Meet Your Makers Showdown is a competition show where amazing artists go head-to-head, creating wild and unique art pieces to win $10,000. Pam was a great artist and almost left Dunder Mifflin to pursue it as a career, but she didn't want to leave the employees she loved behind. It doesn't mean she doesn't still spend time working on her art and criticizing other people's art in the competitive game show.
Jim - Prank Encounters
Despite being a soft-spoken and calm individual, Jim is the office prankster. He was constantly finding ways to mess with people, especially Dwight, and reveled in the humorous interactions around him every day. His knack for pranks is why he would enjoy the show Prank Encounters.
Prank Encounters is the ultimate reality show that brings people's worst nightmares to life but in a light-hearted and playful way—which is what Jim strived to do to Dwight every day. He was always looking for a way to mess with Dwight to get back at him for the annoyance and headache he gives everyone a the office and because he was easily gullible. Jim would probably enjoy watching Prank Encounters and gathering a little bit of inspiration for his own tricks.
Michael - Barry
Leave it to Michael Scott to constantly fuel every cringe-worthy and uncomfortable moment in the show with his inappropriate sense of humor. He loved to be the center of attention and funniest guy in the room, but he never knew how to do it correctly. His love for action and comedy makes Barry the perfect show for him.
Barry is a dark comedy about a hitman who finds a love for a different ion, the theatre. He attempts to make a complete lifestyle switch while still being caught up in the twisted business of assassinations. Michael would appreciate a show like this, seeing as he loves corny crime dramas—as he wrote one himself. But he also has a softer side, which would find Barry's transformation endearing. Michael's love for improv and comedy would also draw him into this unique series.
