Well it's official.. The Office is leaving Netflix!
Cue me screaming and crying like a small child..
NBC didn't want to negotiate further with Netflix, claiming that they want Michael Scott and the rest of Dunder Mifflin back to add to their streaming service that will be coming in January 2021.
The show was bound to leave the service eventually or, at the very least, see some HUGE contract renegotiations.
The Office is the most streamed program, even beating Friends that Netflix paid $100 million for the rights to at the end of 2018!
NBC backs this up with a press release, saying that they plan to hold it for a "soon-to-be-launched streaming service" of their own.. So in other words NBC is saying: 'Yeah, it's the most popular on-demand show on the Internet, of course we're taking it back!'
I'M NOT OKAY WITH THIS LIFE DECISION!
Don't take my favorite coworkers away from us!
