The IT Crowd is a remake of the British sitcom The IT Crowd (UK) chronicling the misadventures of the Information Technology (IT) department at a large company. The title is intended to be pronounced as "it" (as in, "there it is").

The series follows the adventures of three employees at Reynholm Industries. Moss and Roy are your typical variety of geek, living a rather joyless existence in the bowels of the company as the IT department. Everything changes when they are joined by Jen, a typical working girl who is appointed their manager. Of course, Jen doesn't know anything about computers, she just exaggerated on her résumé and now she's stuck in the basement with them.

The remake has seen a turbulent path towards broadcast. Although it was picked up as a midseason replacement for the 2007–2008 season, it was later pushed back to the 2008–2009 season. On September 13, 2007, the Hollywood Reporter reported that NBC may pull the plug entirely, although there has been no comment from the network. Since the show was not included in NBC's presentation of their new 52 week schedule on April 2, 2008 it is assumed the series is dead. Although the series was ordered to series at one point, the pilot episode is the only one known to be completed.
