NBC news.
I've only ever watched an episode of Friday Night Lights which was good but not amazing, and yeah, Scrubs has really sucked as of late, though I love the musical episode. Lipstick Jungle, from what I saw, was pretty terrible. However, let's face it. We don't really care about those other shows here in thar blog. We care about The Office.
Hour-long episodes? Yeah, I think I'm the only Office fan that didn't mind those. Every flaw that gets brought up about them - they're too dramatic and not comedic enough, they're just not funny, they're over-the-top, the characters are written wrong - I just simply don't find true. Most people who are just casual TV watchers and don't, you know, analyze the damn shows list "Fun Run" as one of their all-time favorite episodes. But... a spin-off? I'm thinking that's a no. The Office isn't really big enough to warrant a spin-off. It's not Friends. But "top secret"... hmm. Methinks this has something to do with the rest of Season 4. Maybe Jim'll quit Dunder-Mifflin and it'll be his show, but probably not; Jim is way too sane and normal to anchor a show by himself. Maybe it's Ryan's NY friends? Or Karen's branch? Eh, lame, and improbable in the case of Karen, since Rashida signed her soul over to that other show. However, if Andy and Here Comes Treble decide to go on a road trip touring the country, and that's the spin-off series, I AM SO THERE. Also, oh lord would I love to see a branch with Stephen Colbert as its manager. But...that's a cameo appearance for one episode. It shouldn't be a series. At any rate, NBC's got to have a lot of confidence to put it after the Super Bowl. That strategy is what made Survivor huge, as well as Grey's Anatomy. Hmmm...
