Dear Santa, please let this be true.
‘Tis the season for reboots upon reboots – we’re looking at you Will & Grace, Charmed, Twin Peaks and X-Files.
But it feels like there’s rumours buzzing of one possible reboot that just never seem to fade.
We’re talking, of course, about The Office.
The rumours surrounding the are-they-or-aren’t-they reboot have been discussed for a very long time – and gained even more traction in the last few days, all because of one photo.
Over the weekend, ten – yes, ten – of the cast members got together for brunch, alongside the series creator Greg Daniels.
Some of the old gang got together today… it was so great to see everyone! I turned to Ed and said, “I feel like we are at a family reunion.” He smiled and said, “We are.” ❤️ Thanks Greg for hosting! For those who couldn’t make it… you were missed! pic.twitter.com/DwF42lNGHk

Some of the cast members were noticeably missing from the party, including John Krasinski (Jim), Mindy Kaling (Kelly), Steve Carell (Michael), Ellie Kemper (Erin), Kate Flannery (Meredith) and BJ Novak (Ryan).
However, according to Jenna Fischer, there’s going to be “more to come.”
We were attempting to recreate this photo 🙂 Happy Holidays! We missed you Steve, Ellie, John, BJ, Mindy, Craig and Kate! We will see you soon! pic.twitter.com/P1kvaxn8FS

Responding to Steve Carrell (who had retweeted her photo and added that he missed them all), she wrote:
“We miss you too Steve! Sorry you had to miss this one. More to come!”
It’s not totally clear what Jenna’s “more to come” means – or if there’s going to actually be a reboot, since nobody mentioned (or hinted at) any kind of filming post-brunch.
Here’s hoping we’ll be back at Dunder Mifflin soon, though.
