The Office

A few interesting tidbits from the Silverman-Graboff executive session a few days ago, brought to us by TV Squad.

First, Amy Poehler will be coming to a new show, but it won’t be the famed “Office” spin-off.  However, Rashida Jones (better known as Karen from the current Office series) is likely going to join the spin-off cast.

The Amy Poehler show will likely debut in March, with an Office kind of feel.  According to Silverman:

they came up with two ideas, one which is totally a spinoff which they’re pursuing planted inside, using Office characters, and there was a parallel concept that’s stylistically like The Office, but not part of the Office world.

With that in mind, it could be a fun show too.  We’ll keep you updated as more details emerge.

According to SlashFilm, Steve Carell has signed on for three more years of The Office!

This is certainly great news to all fans of the show.

I’m sure, now that summer is upon us, you’re looking for those summer reading options. Well, in case you didn’t already know, The Office’s Jenna Fischer (Pam), has a blog that she updates pretty regularly. If this is news to you, you should check it out. Go back and read some old posts because they’re pretty interesting. But this weekend she posted a blog answering fans’ questions. It’s a two-parter. Here’s part one. And here’s part 2. Enjoy!

It’s been 8 days since the last taste of a new episode. But last night, some members of The Office cast (Angela Kinsey, Oscar Nuñez, Leslie David Baker, Kate Flannery, and Brian Baumgartner) appeared on “Last Comic Standing” according to Officetally.com.

Here’s a clip.
