    Leaving The Office for the post office



    Wow NBC is going with a single camera style show. Sounds edgy and creative!

    I see that Harvey Keitel is the rumored replacement for Steve Carell.

    The new Office is going to have a lot more profanity and violence.
    Fitter. Happier. More Productive.

      And (if The Piano is any indication) full frontal nudity.
      Kids in general these days seem more socially retarded...

      None of them date. They hang out. They text. They sit in the same car or room and don't say a word...they text. Then, they go home and whack off to internet porn.

      I think that's the sad truth about why these kids are retards.

        I was hoping for Rhys Darby.

          Does this mean my Michael Scott bobblehead doll will appreciate or depreciate?

            "The Office" paraphernelia in an actual office setting was fully depreciated after season 2. Much like people that are still rocking red Swingline staplers on their desk or making in-meeting references to TPS reports, the ship sailed awhile ago.

            It is time to lose the Michale Scott or Dwight Schrute bobblehead and the Worlds Greatest Boss mug.

              Hopefully this is only a 1 or 2 season show, if it is I might try it. I have no desire to watch if they try and make this a 6 season affair.

                With few rare exceptions no show is good after 2-3 seasons.

                  I wonder how Keitel will play the role...I'm at least intrigued to have him on there, though without Carell, I'm not sure the show lasts 2 more seasons.

                  Well, because he thought it was good sport. Because some men aren't looking for anything logical, like money. They can't be bought, bullied, reasoned, or negotiated with. Some men just want to watch the world burn.

                    M*A*S*H only got better after Henry Blake, and Trapper John left. I think a mix-up of new and old could put a couple more years of life into The Office.

                      That's why I am never too upset when a show like Arrested Development gets canceled. I assume it will soon start sucking anyway.

                        Sad when Blake left.

                          It's still sad in re-runs. Radar breaks my heart.

                            I thought Seinfeld and Cheers improved with age. Cheers got better once they got rid of Shelley Long and Seinfeld's only down period was when Jerry and George was pimping a show for NBC. Once they got past that it was great until the very last episode.

                              I missed Coach, but Woody was as good a replacement as you could get. And Alley was welcome over Long.
