The Office - Best of Jim Marathon

COZI TV is bringing some good news to fans of The Office on Sunday, May 17 with a "Best of Jim" marathon starting at 11 a.m. ET (check local listings). The marathon will include 16 episodes, celebrating some of the best highlights and funniest moments of Jim Halpert, played by John Krasinski, who is a salesman at Dunder Mifflin and is known as the office prankster. The Office premiered on NBC in 2005 and ran for 201 total episodes of nine seasons. The series was based on the British series of the same name. The Office won several awards during its run, including five Emmy Awards. The series helped to launch the careers of Krasinski, along with Steve Carell, Jenna Fischer, B.J. Novak and Rainn Wilson. The show was lauded for its trademark deadpan delivery, and it helped to popularize the "mockumentary" style in American television.
