The Office — Season 9
Season 9 Review
In the series 9th season, Andy Bernard, the preppy salesman and die-hard Cornell alumni whose endless and unique musical talents keep the office entertained, is the new Dunder Mifflin Scranton manager.

Season 9 is the comeback: Dwight as the show’s center, the documentary finally being acknowledged, and the finale stretch (the reunion, the Q&A panel, Angela’s wedding) lands the ending with genuine grace: everyone finds out who they were on camera, and it was enough.
