Mindy Kaling Says 'The Office' Is "So Inappropriate Now" And Most Of The Characters "Would Be Canceled" If They Existed Today
"The Office" remains one of the most beloved shows to ever air on TV, but actor and writer Mindy Kaling explains why she thinks it wouldn't be able to air today and would be considered extremely offensive.
Spanning across 9 seasons, "The Office" is one of the most popular TV shows in the last couple decades. It has created a devoted fan base that still rewatches episodes on a regular basis, but despite begs and pleas for a sequel, the creators and cast of the show have made it clear for a long time that there will be no reboot (thankfully). Mindy Kaling starred as Kelly Kapoor, the shopping-obsessed, pop-culture fanatic who had a toxic relationship with temp-turned-executive Ryan Howard throughout the entirety of the show. She also wrote and produced many episodes of "The Office," and she says the show wouldn't have been made today because it's far too offensive.
