Touchdown for the Dunder-Mifflin team! Yes, fans, The Office is heading to the Super Bowl well, sort of.

The NBC comedy has scored the coveted time slot following February 1's game, and executive producers of the series have told EW.com that plans are in the works for an hour-long episode. Though they wouldn't give out any specifics on what to expect as far as plot points, executive producer Paul Lieberstein (who plays Toby Flenderson on the show) did touch upon going deeper into stories behind some of the cast members "who only get grunts or reactions when Michael says something stupid."

Which under-utilized character do hope gets more of the spotlight? Creed? Oscar? Both? - Gina DiNunno
