Stanley was messy as hell, but I completely relate to his grumpiness and having to work a job where he's paid too little. Talk about the story of my life, lol

I think NBC would have gotten involved by now if it wasn’t allowed. Baker probably met with the lawyers beforehand on what he could and couldn’t do.

I’m guessing the fact that they call him Uncle Stan and not Stanley Hudson in the synopsis means he can play a retiree from Florida named Stan but not specifically say he’s the same character from The Office.

i'm surprised the comments in here are so positive so far tbh.

i don't feel one way or another about this, but it would be stupid for peacock to not do an office webseries to get some subscribers going.
