This artist re-imagined the cast of 'The Office' as cartoon characters

The American version of The Office ended in 2013, but there's been a phenomenon of people rewatching it over and over and over. Everyone can identify with the office politics and personal relationships. Also, it has the perfect blend of absurdist comedy and emotional drama. (Personally, I was shipping Pam-Creed but I'm guess I'm cool with her ending up with Jim.)

Now Los Angeles artist Marisa Livingston has given us a whole new way to see the characters. She works in the animation industry, and whenever she's bored, she sketches a Michael to break her writer's block. But like most Office fans, she's a bit obsessed. One thing to led to another, and she ended up sketching cartoon versions of 24 cast members. These include core cast members like Jim and Pan, new favorites like Gabe and Erin, and some real deep cuts like Charles Miner and Jo Bennett.

It's a pretty amazing collection, but where's Karen Filippelli, Todd Packer and Nellie Bertram? And what about Robert California, Clark Green and Deangelo Vickers? What about sketching all of the British Office characters? Get to work, Marisa. You work for us now.

Recently NBC announced they were working on an Office revival. Obviously, most of the main cast is busy on other projects, so it would some of the minor cast members, as well as new characters. But if it's not possible to get everyone together for a live-action show, maybe they could do an animated version. It wouldn't be the same, but after seeing these sketches, I'm open to it.
