You Can Binge ‘The Office’ 133 Times Before It Leaves Netflix, But You’ll Die First

If you’ve spent any time on the internet lately, you know what’s up: The Office will be leaving Netflix early in 2021 and people are Losing. Their. Shit. In addition to the typical angry tweets and outraged Reddit threads that accompany any change on Netflix, at least one person has started a Change.org petition begging Netflix to keep the beloved Emmy-winning comedy on its service.

If only Netflix would listen. If only there was literally any other way to watch The Office than through a Netflix account. If only there were any other TV shows that weren’t The Office. If only people knew how much time they had left with their precious Steve Carrell-starring baby. At least on that front, we can help you out. According to Decider’s rigorous calculations, you can watch the full nine season run of The Office roughly 133 more times before it leaves Netflix. There’s just one catch: you’ll die well before the last “That’s what she said.”

It takes four days, three hours, and 30 minutes to binge watch all of The Office. That translates into 5,970 minutes. Not counting today and assuming that The Office will leave Netflix on January 1, 2021, that means everyone has 553 full days, or 796,320 minutes of life with The Office on Netflix. If you binge watched Jim and Pam’s love story nonstop from now until the moment it’s pulled from your favorite streaming service, you could get through a little over 133 full re-watches.

The only thing stopping you in this Dundies-worthy quest is your own body. According to Healthline, a person can only go 264 hours without sleep, which translates to a little over 11 consecutive days. Based on those paltry hours, you wouldn’t be able to even get through three The Office binge-watches. Two binge watches would take you eight days and seven hours to complete, only leaving you with 65 hours to complete a third rewatch before you die in the process.

Even worse, you’d probably die of complications related to lack of sleep somewhere around Season 6. We all know that when Sabre started becoming big, and when things started going downhill. Is that what you want for your final moments? The Erin and Andy saga of The Office? No, absolutely not. You’re better than that.

But in case you’re still worried about how much time you have with the Dunder Mufflin gang, stop. You still have lots and lots of time. And — just throwing this out there — maybe you should spend some of it figuring out how to buy The Office on DVD? Unless you’d rather die.
