The world of The Office franchise won't just stop in Dunder Mifflin and the Wenham Hogg Paper Company, oh no. Not with Toledo Truth-Teller coming to our screens...
With the spinoff in mind, here's how fans can catch up on both US and UK versions of The Office online in 2026!
Where to Watch Both Versions of The Office
The UK version of The Office had only had two seasons, totaling 14 episodes, while the US version picked up the series and managed to run nine seasons in total, with 188 episodes waiting to be binged on their streaming platforms.
But don't let the US and UK versions fool you. While they're in the same franchise, their platforms are a bit tricky to navigate:
- US viewers can watch all nine seasons of The Office US version on Netflix, Disney+, and Peacock, while UK viewers can binge them on Amazon Prime Video and Disney+
- The UK version of The Office can be streamed on the Peacock app, just like The Paper, and HBO in the US, while UK viewers can watch it all on BBC iPlayer.
How to Watch The Office with VPN Services
Just because you're not in the US or the UK doesn't mean you should be deprived of watching shows you know and love. This goes for US and UK residents, depending on their preferred platforms to watch on.
There are four top choices when it comes to the best VPN services for streaming, known to provide you exclusive access to your favorite shows while still being in the comfort of your own home, and they are as follows:
- ExpressVPN – Known for its consistently fast speeds, plus it features over 3,000 servers in 105 countries
- VeePN – It has over 2,600 servers and costs just $1.99 a month
- NordVPN – Excels in speed and can connect to multiple streamers such as Netflix, Hulu, and Disney+
- Surfshark – Cheapest option and yet supports an unlimited number of connected devices
All of the above may be top-tier, but ExpressVPN and VeePN are two of our favorite services to rely on for streaming. ExpressVPN, for example, offers a wide range of servers and countries, while VeePN is cheaper, yet still offers a wide range of servers to pick from.
Here's how to get started with either pick:
- Sign Up: Start your subscription and download the app for the VPN service you choose for your chosen device.
- Connect: Navigate the app and explore connecting to different servers located in the US, the UK, and more.
- Stream: Click on the streaming platform of your choice and lock in on your next The Office and other sitcom binge.

Is The Paper Connected to The Office?
The Paper spinoff is indeed connected to The Office, but not in the way you think. Apart from being a spinoff of the original show, the historic Midwestern newspaper, Toledo Truth-Teller, is in the same universe as Dunder Mifflin. How?
Well, fans of the franchise will recognize Oscar Martinez (Oscar Nuñez), one of the most iconic major characters in the original. Oscar was seen in the trailer trying to work while getting away from the documenting cameras in his attempt to escape what The Office had stolen from him: his privacy in his desk.
The Paper debuted on September 4 on the Peacock platform.
