The cringe is the original point of the show. It’s even very toned down in the US version compared to the UK one.
The original The Office is a very niche thing, definitely not for everyone, and i was always a bit surprised that the US remake got the success it got.
If you want to be deeply infuriated you should watch “Extras” which is the show Gervais and Merchant did after the Office. It’s like a horror movie that’s so terrifying you have to hit pause - except with cringe.
