The Office was originally a British sitcom created by Ricky Gervais and Stephen Merchant in 2001.
Since then there have been 15 other versions of The Office produced in 15 other countries: Australia, Brazil, Canada, Chile, Czech Republic, Finland, France, Germany, India, Israel, Poland, Saudi Arabia, South Africa, Sweden and the United States. The U.S. version was the one that ran the longest, from 2005 to 2013.
Now there’s a Mexican version, produced by Prime Video, La Oficina.
From Forbes: Ricky Gervais’s The Office is making a comeback in Spanish, with a Mexican twist. Prime Video is reviving the franchise in a new setting: a soap factory in the heart of Mexico. The new take, La Oficina, premieres March 13. [article date]
“It has been over two decades since Gervais first introduced the world to his groundbreaking workplace comedy in the original UK version (2001–2003), and more than a decade since the U.S. adaptation on NBC concluded its hit nine-season run in 2013. Both series were set in the mundane world of fictional paper companies.”
La Oficina is set in Aguascalientes and the company in the show is the Jabones Olimpo soap company.
