There’s no place like home for the holidays! And so, we come bearing good news, especially for fans of The Office. For starters, Phyllis is back. She’s officially here with some streamable holiday cheer and, of course, her knitting needles.

Joann’s is launching a documentary-style series called Working from Home with Phyllis, featuring the one and only Phyllis Smith, reports Marketing Dive.

Smith, best known for her role as Phyllis Vance on The Office, is the festive front woman for Joann’s holiday campaign. The three-part series will depict the actress balancing her passion for crafting with working from home. How fitting.

We can expect some well-timed references and rapport regarding The Office. But it’s not all about Phyllis or the iconic NBC series, friends. As the publication notes, the cozy and crafty documentary style series is set to feature various crafting influencers including Vincent Green-Hite, Britney Brown-Chamberlin, and Charlotte Smith.

But of course, Phyllis Smith is the star of the show, and we’re totally here for it.

The question is: How did Working From Home With Phyllis come to be?

Of the show’s premise, Joann’s chief creative officer, Richard Vollmer has said, “With so many looking for ways to manage through a very tough year, we wanted to bring some levity as well as encouragement for people to try something new.”

Apparently, the holiday web series will be familiar to fans of The Office for more than one reason. But you’ll have to find out all the reasons why for yourself. Dunder Mifflin nostalgia aside, creators of show say its greater aim is to address today’s work-from-home reality.

And there’s arguably nobody better suited than Phyllis Smith to work alongside, right?
