10 Reasons Why You Should Binge Watch “The Office”

The American version of “The Office” is one of the best shows I have ever watched on Netflix. I mean it’s no “Parks and Rec,” but it really is such a funny and light-hearted series. If I could forget what I saw and re-watch it, I would. Last semester I found the time to balance classwork, activities, and about four Netflix shows. I have my priorities. “The Office” has so many characters that are not only kind, but hilarious in their own way. They tug at your heart making you form a connection with them, especially after devoting your time to all of the episodes. Here are 10 reasons why you should definitely binge watch “The Office.”

1. It has the funniest characters you’ll ever meet.

Michael Scott literally always has something hilarious to say. Nothing he talks about makes sense, but at the same time you can’t help but love him. Sometimes his jokes get a little touchy, but nevertheless he is one of those people whose presence in the room is never easily forgotten.

2. You get to see the cutest relationship ever.

Pam and Jim are seriously relationship goals. Ever since the beginning they have been one of the cutest couples I have ever seen. I really loved seeing their relationship grow as the seasons progressed, so this is definitely an incentive to start watching.

3. It teaches you to have confidence.

If you have ever seen even a small clip of Michael Scott, you know he is one of the most confident men out there. Sometimes he gets a little full of himself, but there really is never a time where he does not believe he is on top.

4. You get to listen to some original raps.

Michael and Dwight are rap gods. Their music is just classic. There aren’t many original raps in this show, but when the time comes for them to be played in the office you are definitely in for a treat.

5. Health tips.

Like Stanley said, if you act positively and think positively, you live longer. At least that’s what his doctor told him.

6. You’ll learn that hard work pays off.

Dwight was probably one of the most hard working employees at Dunder Mifflin. He never gave up his dream of becoming Manager.

7. Kevin.

Kevin is just such a funny person you can’t help but love him. He really doesn’t know what he’s doing…ever, but realistically he matters so much. He’s also very quotable, everything out of his mouth will have you laughing for hours.

8. Mindy Kaling gets to be sassy and over-dramatic.

You really never know what’s going to come out of this girl’s mouth. She is super sassy and funny, but you really can’t help the fact that you will question all of her morals. She sure does know how to get what she wants though.

9. You’ll learn life lessons.

Apparently if you stay away from using full sentences, you’ll save a lot of time.

10. You’ll get so attached to their “office documentary” you will never want it to end.

By the time you finish all of the seasons so many things will have changed. I know it’s only a TV show, but you really form a connection with the characters after getting to know them for so long.

If I have learned one thing in my lifetime, it is that friends are a privilege. No one is required to give you their company and yet there is some sort of shared connection that keeps you together. And from that friendship, you may even find yourself lucky enough to have a few more friends, thus forming a group. Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.

Every kid in college and/or high school dreams of summer the moment they walk through the door on the first day back in September. It becomes harder and harder to focus in classes and while doing assignments as the days get closer. The winter has been lagging, the days are short and dark, and no one is quite themselves due to lack of energy and sunlight. Let's face it: life is ten times better in the summertime.
