In honor of The Office withstanding the test of time with these hidden-in-plain-sight jokes, take a look at some of the very best ones."You have reached the offices of Dunder-Mifflin, Scranton, currently the entire staff is out doing the Michael Scott, DM FM PMC rabies awareness Pro-Am fun run race"… "for the cure"… "leave a message” It makes the marathon rewatch sessions all the more fun, because something in the background is always waiting to throw you off your game, even years after the show finished producing new episodes. While the series might shine in its most iconic moments, hitting its viewers square between the eyes with comedy, part of the cleverness of The Office is that, under all kinds of layers, there's always something you're likely to notice that you never caught before. So while some people might judge you for watching and rewatching The Office, these jokes are definitive proof that this is a sitcom that keeps paying off, even when you think you know what's coming. So it's time to shout out The Office's best background jokes, which you may not even catch until your second or third rewatch. But sometimes, the laughs the show offers are more subtle. Over the years, The Office has become largely known for its absurd stunts, the outrageous hijinks of Michael Scott and the rest of Dunder Mifflin's staff, and its sharp one-liners.
