Jones appeared in four episodes of The Office ("Junior Salesman", "The Farm", and the two-part series finale). He was cast as a series regular in The Farm,[7] a failed spin-off of The Office.[8] While in the UK to direct Borderline in 2016,[9] Jones appeared in two episodes of character comedy podcast Fact Up.[10] He portrayed Baxter in the CBS sitcom Mom.[11] In 2018, he starred in the Pop television series Let's Get Physical as Joe Force.
