But don't expect Steve Carrell to return should the revival happen.

The people person's paper people may soon return, as a revival continuation of NBC's The Office is reportedly in consideration at NBC for the 2018-2019 TV season.

TV Line reports a potential return to Dunder Mifflin is being eyed for the next TV season, with a new season of The Office reportedly to be set in the Scranton, PA branch central to the NBC series. According to TV Line, the revival would feature both new and old characters, however Steve Carrell's Michael Scott would not be involved. Instead, the Scranton branch of the paper company would feature a new boss.

NBC had no official comment to TV Line regarding the reported revival consideration.

NBC's The Office itself was a remake of the British The Office, which ran for two series in the U.K. before the American remake debuted in 2005. Focused on Michael Scott and his team at Dunder Mifflin, The Office focused on the daily life of the paper company's employees through a mockumentary style. John Krasinski, Jenna Fischer, Rainn Wilson, and Mindy Kaling were among the show's stars. Carrell departed the show in its seventh season, while the series ended with Season 9 in 2013.

The Office is one of my favorite shows of all time. That being said, if they did revive the show, they would need to do it right. Carrell was in many ways the heart of the show, once he left a lot of the laughs did as well. The cast still did a decent job, but without Michael Scott it didnt have that same feeling anymore. Also they would have to figure out a way to get Pam and Jim back to Scranton.

I would love to see more Dwight, but show will need Carrell, Krasinski and Fischer as well.
