From the team behind The Office US comes new mockumentary The Paper – a semi-sequel to the beloved long-running sitcom.

Following the success of the original office-based documentary, the same in-world camera crew and production team who followed the goings on at Dunder Mifflin decide to shift focus to The Truth Teller, a historic – but now struggling – Midwestern newspaper, and the efforts of the publisher trying to revive it.

Set in Toledo, Ohio, The Truth Teller has opted to use volunteer reporters to keep their paper afloat. Hoping to be taken seriously as journalists, the volunteers all come armed with their own unique quirks and foibles.

The series is set in the same universe as The Office US, and is created, written and executive produced by The Office US’s Greg Daniels of Deedle-Dee Productions, and Nathan For You’s Michael Koman.

Executive Producers are Ricky Gervais, Stephen Merchant, Howard Klein, Ben Silverman and Banijay Americas (formerly Reveille). From Universal Television, a division of Universal Studio Group.
