Abstract
NBC’s Emmy Award winning television series The Offrce (2005-present) depicts characters experiencing mundane, yet comical, work day scenarios. Although the show might seem to be a simple comedy about office life, this thesis reveals its strong motivating ideologies. In particular, The OffIce reveals contradictory cultural attitudes within capitalism's dominant ideology: The American Dream.
