One of the most-watched shows on Netflix will be leaving the popular streaming service.

“The Office” will no longer be available on Netflix beginning January 2021.

NBC will offer the popular comedy on its own soon-to-be launched streaming platform, NBC Universal said in a statement.

“The Office” is the number one series on subscription video on demand and was streamed for more than 52 billion minutes, according to NBC.

We're sad that NBC has decided to take The Office back for its own streaming platform — but members can binge watch the show to their hearts' content ad-free on Netflix until January 2021
