'The Office' cast reunited on 'SNL' to beg Steve Carell for a damn reboot
Watch Next

Fact: A whole bunch of people on this planet are begging for a reboot of the beloved NBC comedy, The Office. One of the only holdouts, however, is Steve Carell — Michael Scott himself.

For this reason, four former cast members of The Office — Jenna Fischer, Ellie Kemper, Ed Helms, and Steve's wife Nancy — crashed his opening SNL monologue to demand he reconsider a revival.

Jenna Fischer, who played Pam, even went so far as to reveal the words her character said to Michael in their famous airport goodbye scene to convince him. And OH BOY are they good.

Was the visit from his old pals and high level of support from the audience enough to bring Michael Scott back? We'll have to wait and see. Things looked promising towards the end, but we know Carell loves to tease us.
