The Office is still making people laugh seven years after its conclusion, and there are plenty of ways to remember the series. Fans could listen to the podcast Office Ladies with former co-stars Jenna Fischer and Angela Kinsey, or read new interviews with the cast and crew in Andy Greene's book, The Office: The Untold Story of the Greatest Sitcom of the 2000s. Another heartwarming way to reminisce about the workplace comedy is to watch the two-hour final table read for The Office.

Table reads, or read-throughs, are common practice in film, television, radio, and theatre production. The actors will essentially conduct an organized reading around a table of the script so that writers can make adjustments before the episode starts shooting. However, this table read in particular must have been incredibly emotional, considering that the cast and crew of The Office created nine seasons of a beloved sitcom together. You can check out the full video below.

The video begins with a lovely speech from showrunner Greg Daniels. "I want to make some last remarks," Daniels starts. "Ten years ago, my agent gave me a VHS tape to watch, the British [version of The Office]. I showed it to my wife and said, 'Do you think I should adapt this for the U.S.?', and she said absolutely not. Lucky for me, I didn't listen. I've done not much else for ten years. This show has been my passion and my family."

He continues, "The best part of it all was that it brought me together with the most passionate, talented, funny, dedicated, wonderful group of people." You'll notice that Rainn Wilson, who portrays Dwight Schrute, is hilariously the only actor to appear in his character's costume. I'm not crying, you're crying! The video is super sweet to watch and a must-see for any fanatic of The Office!
