Smart move by Peacock to go full binge-drop—honestly, that’s the kind of energy we need more of in streaming. Can’t wait to see how the new cast vibes with Oscar’s familiar dry humor in this fresh setting.
Honestly, dropping all ten episodes at once feels like a total power move—Peacock knows we’re all gonna binge it anyway. I’m just hyped to see Oscar back in action, even if the rest of the Dunder Mifflin crew is sitting this one out.
