Nobody asked for it, but everyone needed it.

Have you ever imagined your favorite TV-show being rebooted but in a different setting?

So many shows could have a breath of fresh air being recreated in a different decoration, with different problems and values but with the same beloved characters.

Well, how about The Office in a cyberpunk setting? You heard it right.

That is not only imaginable, it also gets really intriguing after a fan posted his interpretation of what The Office might look like if it was to happen in a cyberpunk world.

Using an AI, a fan made footage of The Office in a cyberpunk setting, and it looks interesting, to say the least.

The video shows Michael, Kevin, Creed, Dwight, Jim, Oscar and the others, providing a glimpse of what our beloved characters might look like if they happen to be living in a cyberpunk world.

Every aspect of a cyberpunk reality is present: neon lights, weird haircuts and of course, not less weird but cool badass suits and dresses. Pam and Angela look like they were born into this cyberpunk universe, might we add.

The simple reason for The Office's success is that it is funny in the most relatable way possible. Its hilarious characters and the situations they are experiencing is what made this show such a good comedy.

But can you imagine the same characters living in a dystopian city, with a full integration of technology into society, including cybernetic implants.

The Office might become a completely different show with hard boiled detective and noir vibes. However, no one said there is no place for humor in cyberpunk.

Well, as we are entering a reboot era, chances are such AI-generated concepts will start being noticed by big producers and creators, and new takes on the beloved classics will see the light of day.

But be careful what you wish for. And do not complain if you see SpongeBob SquarePants in a survival post apocalyptic movie someday.
