In the sitcom The Office, Michael Scott is a corporate middleman at Dunder Mifflin Paper Company, Inc. His main purpose is to supervise a staff and avoid any real work. When this character is transported into the post apocalyptic world of Fallout 4, his is tasked with protecting colonies from attack, but he still just doesn't want to do the work. His main mechanism is to make a joke out of it, but the apocalypse is the most inappropriate place to make jokes.
This mashup is the work of eli_handle_b.wav, who has found his niche in putting comedic characters into life-or-death video game situations. (via Born in Space)

Being not the USA, my country had the British 'The Office' to watch, first.
Some of my friends, mainly the female ones, formed a 'club' where they got together to watch each weekly episode, and I was invited along.
I couldn't stand the .... not sure what the word is, embarrassment ? horror ? awkwardness ? ... seriously, I did not have the stomach for it.
Roll forward some years, and a break up with my partner changed my friend group somewhat, and then the American version of 'The Office' came along.
(*there is a number of stories involved in the above mentioned 'break up', with the financial ones most horrific, but this may not be the right forum for them)
I resisted the American version at first because of the, ugh, memory of the British one, but like a sore tooth, or a dangling venomous snake, or even exposed live power wires ... I couldn't help myself and had to put myself at risk.
Well, you could have knocked me over with a quail's feather dipped in lighter fluid .... while the show was the exact same scenarios, the actual watching was not like having needles inserted into your eyeballs .... and was actually quite funny in places.
For reference to my surprise, and please don't think me anti-'Merica, but most shows you copy from 'foreign' ones just do not measure up.
I give you your 'Three Men and a Baby' movie ... seen it ? ... enjoyed it ? ... well, if you had seen the original French version you would have not so enjoyed it, as there really is little comparison, and that's with my having to read the subtitles !
But, with 'The Office' y'all did done good.
