Strip 291
Panel 1
BRIAN: So who's going to play Maxwell Smart?
ABBY: The guy who plays the boss on "The Office".
Panel 2
BRIAN: You know what would be funny, if they combined those two shows and did a comedy about a spy office.
Panel 3
ABBY: Steve Carell can only do so much.

… great expression for Abby on the last panel (Haven’t seen Get Smart or The Office, so the rest of the joke flew by at 4,000 feet for me)

If you’ve seen either the original “Get Smart” series or the movie ads/trailer, you’ll get a sample of the nature of its content as a spy comedy.
I haven’t seen “The Office” but it sounds like it has similar treatment of the American workplace office.
But, of course, who would even try to base a series off a combination of the two? <..> (Self-reference FOR THE WIN!)

hswoowlve joke the office is a parody of office life while get smart is a parody of james bond movies. Combined they would come out something like this.
