The Paper Sneak Peek: Ned Gives New Meaning to "Virtual Meeting"
With "The Office" spinoff arriving on Sept. 4th, here's a sneak peek at Greg Daniels and Michael Koman's Domhnall Gleeson-starring The Paper.
With only a little more than a week to go until the ten-episode first season of series co-creators and co-showrunners Greg Daniels (The Office) and Michael Koman's Domhnall Gleeson (Ex Machina, About Time)-starring comedy The Paper drops on Peacock, we're getting a sneak peek at what we can expect. The upcoming spinoff sees the doc crew from NBC's Emmy Award-winning series The Office aiming its cameras at a new subject: a historic but down-on-its-luck Midwestern newspaper and the publisher trying to revive it. In the clip below, Ned (Gleeson), the new editor-in-chief of the Toledo Truth-Teller, is eager to make a good impression (even if it means holding a fake meeting)…
The upcoming sitcom stars Gleeson, Sabrina Impacciatore (The White Lotus), Chelsea Frei (Poker Face, The Cleaning Lady), Melvin Gregg (American Vandal, Snowfall), Gbemisola Ikumelo (Black Ops, A League Of Their Own), Alex Edelman (Just For Us, Unfrosted), Ramona Young (Never Have I Ever, Santa Clarita Diet), Tim Key (The Witchfinder, This Time with Alan Partridge), and Oscar Nuñez (The Office, The Proposal). Eric Rahill, Tracy Letts, Molly Ephraim, Mo Welch, Allan Havey, Duane Shepard Sr., Nate Jackson, and Nancy Lenehan are guest stars. Here's a look at the sneak peek that was released earlier today, followed by the image gallery that was released with the official trailer:
