The Paper Season 2 premieres on Peacock

The second season of the Peacock mockumentary series ‘The Paper’, a spinoff of ‘The Office’, has premiered with ten new episodes. Set in Toledo, Ohio, the series follows the staff of the struggling Toledo Truth Teller newspaper.

Season 2 focuses on editor Ned Sampson (Domhnall Gleeson) as he attempts to lead a journalistic crusade against a local private club, while simultaneously navigating a secret romance with reporter Mare Pritti (Chelsea Frei). Critics have noted that the new season works to establish a distinct identity by moving away from the heavy nostalgia of the first season, though some reviews vary on the development of the ensemble cast.

The series, created by Greg Daniels and Michael Koman, continues to feature elements of the original series, including the return of Oscar Martinez (Oscar Nuñez).
