According to The Sunday Telegraphâs Annette Sharp, an Australian version of The Office is set to begin filming in Sydney in the coming months. The lead role will be played by a female comedian, but the producers have ruled out the likes of Magda Szubanski, Celia Pacquola, Judith Lucy and Kitty Flanagan, and are looking across the Tasman.
The Office will be made by Bunya Productions for Amazon Prime.

Ugh!
Canât they come up with a new idea rather than rehash a show thatâs already been made twice?

Interested to see how this pans out. Expectations are extremely low but hopes are high.

Sure, why not. Itâll never live up to how good the UK and US versions were but dammit Iâd like to see them try.

The one thing I would say - and it could well be shit - but when it was announced the US was adapting The Office, there were howls of derision. Then it worked.

Deadline says The Office Australia will launch on Amazon Prime globally in 2024, excluding the US.
I wonder if the US will get its own distribution deal (via BBC Studios) or miss out totally because of the local version.

It worked, once they stopped trying to be like the UK version. The first season was painful

âDeadlochâ features far too many cliches and mates of the writers. Tom Ballard and co canât act.
Some lazy writing which is jarring at times. A response to âwas the victim sexually assaulted?â âNo the victim is male.â Oh ok males arenât victims of sexual assault?
Turned the rubbish off.
I wonder if The Office Australia will become a bit like Utopia.
