Craig Robinson wants to see Darryl in a The Office reunion. The American sitcom based on the British original of the same name ran for nine seasons from 2005-13, and while it received a mixed response in its early episodes, shifting away from the tone of its source material helped it become its own, successful show. The Office took home the Emmy for Outstanding Comedy Series for season 2 in 2006, and it has proved enduringly popular in the age of streaming.
One of the key reasons fans continue to love the show is its cast of characters, who all had distinct personalities and often extensive arcs across the nine seasons. Robinson's Darryl Philbin, for example, is introduced in The Office season 1 as the warehouse foreman, though he becomes increasingly involved with the office staff and at one point applies to be manager. Ultimately, he leaves Dunder Mifflin with Jim and joins Athlead, ending the series as their V.P. of Athlete Relations.
