Jennifer Garner has gone viral with a video of her emotional reaction to finishing her first watch-through of The Office (US).
The Alias star uploaded the clip to Instagram, where it has since been viewed more than two million times.
Alongside the video, Garner wrote: “My kids and I have spent months piled on the couch working our way through ‘How to Behave as Grownups’, aka #TheOffice.
“Apparently we are sensitive people – the finale hit us pretty hard. When I realised I’d accidentally shot my farewell testimonial in slo-mo I realised: your Monday might need this, too.”
In the clip, Garner is seen wearing a Dunder Mifflin T-shirt, which Office fans will obviously recognise as a reference to the company featured in the series.
The actor is seen breaking down in tears – in slow motion – in response to reaching the end of the series.
Over the footage, Garner narrates: “You’ll never guess which show my kids and I watched an episode a day of through quarantine and guess what? We finished it, and guess what? It gave me some really big feelings.”
“Look who needed a big cry and maybe a shower would have been helpful, but it’s just nice to know you can still just feel so much passionate about something, right?” she added. “So thank you. If you’ve ever heard of the show, The Office, you should try it. It’s wonderful.”
She then concludes the video by uttering one of the series’ most oft-repeated lines: “Bears. Beats. Battlestar Galactica.”
In the UK, all nine seasons of The Office are available to stream on Now TV and Amazon Prime Video.
