If ever should come a time when "The Office" gets a reboot, the network can be assured that at least two cast members are down for it.

Jenna Fischer and Angela Kinsey stopped by "The Ellen DeGeneres" show for an episode that aired Monday and sat down with Ellie Kemper, who filled in as host.

"I would not do an 'Office' reboot, but I would love to do a reunion special," Fischer said after being asked if there would be an "Office" reboot or reunion and if the actresses would be up for it. "I would like to get us all together again."

Kinsey was up for any version of "The Office."

"I would do anything they would call me to do," she said. "If you ever want to call me, I'm around."

Kemper agreed she'd be there no matter what, noting that whenever she gets asked that same question, she responds, "I will be there!"

"Angela and I are rebooting 'The Office,' " Kemper joked.

This year, Kemper shared doubts the beloved comedy, which ran on NBC from 2005 to 2013, would have a reboot. She did have something else in mind.

"Be honest," a caller asked her on "Watch What Happens Live With Andy Cohen." "How annoyed do you get when people ask about an 'Office' reboot, and what are the chances of it actually happening?"

Though Kemper doesn't find the question annoying, the "Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt" star said her answer is disappointing.

"Unfortunately, I don't get annoyed at all when people ask," she said. "I would love for there to be a reboot, but I don't think there will be. So that's a sad answer, but maybe in like a reunion episode, that would be fun."

Fans were distraught when NBC announced that "The Office" will leave Netflix in 2021 and head to the network's own streaming service, which will launch in 2020.
