The Paper’ Bows on Peacock With Full-Season Drop and Early Season 2 Renewal

The Office follow-up moves the original documentary crew to a struggling Toledo newsroom, earning an 85% Rotten Tomatoes score despite divided reviews.

Overview

  • All 10 episodes are now streaming on Peacock after a late switch from a planned staggered rollout, with UK streaming on Sky/NOW from Sept. 5 and India on JioHotstar.
  • Created by Greg Daniels and Michael Koman, the mockumentary follows editor Ned Sampson (Domhnall Gleeson) at the Toledo Truth Teller, with Oscar Nuñez returning as Oscar Martinez.
  • Peacock renewed the series for a second season before the premiere.
  • Critics’ reception is split despite an 85% Rotten Tomatoes score, with praise for the ensemble and premise alongside notable pans, including a 2-out-of-4-star review.
  • The premiere includes a canonical on-screen update that connects the new setting to Dunder Mifflin without leaning on legacy characters.
