BBC’s The Office Goes For An Adult Swim

Adult Swim today announced it has acquired the legendary hit BBC comedy, The Office, from BBC Worldwide.

Both seasons of the two-time Golden Globe Award-winning series will begin airing on Adult Swim this summer. Adult Swim will also air The Office Christmas special.

Today’s announcement to add The Office comes on the heels of the addition of the BBC hit The Mighty Boosh, a deal also done with BBC Worldwide, which had its Adult Swim debut March 29.

Adult Swim airs nightly from 10 p.m. to 6 a.m. (ET, PT).
