How it spread

Trace the origin

The Office streamed on MySpace before its NBC debut, then reached iTunes and Netflix. Memes and a cast podcast extended its audience. Wikipedia attention peaked in April 2020 within the observed window; Nielsen recorded 57.127 billion US streaming minutes that year.

Observed peak within the documented measurement window; not an all-time maximum. Dates use the stated precision; chart positions are date anchors.
