If you’re holding out hope for a reboot or revival of The Office, this pretty much confirms that’s never gonna happen. Sorry to break it to ya! Mindy Kaling recently sat down for an interview on Good Morning America and she revealed some hot takes about the popularity of the sitcom — and why she doesn’t think it would stand a chance if it were to be made today!

When asked when she plans to introduce her young children to the show, Mindy (who starred as Kelly Kapoor and was a writer on the series) shut down the idea, laughing: Oof!

Elaborating on her thought process — and pretty much bringing an end to speculation of a reboot at the same time — the screenwriter explained further: Hmm.

So, it’s too inappropriate to make today but exactly what viewers want to rewatch as well?! What a conundrum! When asked what her pop culture-obsessed character would be up to in a 2022 version of the series, the 43-year-old comedian added: LOLz!
