The Office: TV Guide News

The terrific Britcom about a dysfunctional workplace from hell helped put BBC America on the TV map, attracting a wider audience of hip, young viewers. This wickedly funny mockumentary tracks the monotonous doings at a paper-product firm in the dreary London suburb of Slough. Ricky Gervais (who wrote and directed the series with Stephen Merchant) plays it perfectly deadpan as David Brent, the inept office manager who has deluded himself into thinking that he's both a funny guy and a great boss.

Kate Flannery, The Office: "Moroccan Christmas" | Celebrity Blogs | 12/11/2008
It's the Office drunk again! Hey, remember my weekly blogs? I have been AWOL this season. But it's Christmastime at Dunder Mifflin and the redhead in the corner is about to embark on a journey, in this week's "Moroccan Christmas."

This episode was so much fun to shoot. Angela and Phyllis have some major power struggles, and Dwight has a little business going. Yup, one of the most rewarding episodes for me, personally. Sometimes I have to pinch myself, I am so grateful. Steve Carell and I ... read more 18 Comments
NBC Schedules Medium, Large Apprentice, Super-sized Office and ER Finale | Today's News: Our Take | 12/3/2008
Just days after unveiling "Phase 1" of its plan — which in part brought back Friday Night Lights and set a start date for Nigel Lythgoe's Superstars of Dance — NBC has followed through with the continuation of its midseason tweaking.

Of most immediate important to many of you, I imagine, is the return date — Feb. 2 — for Medium, which will air Mondays at 10 pm/ET. There, it will cap a night featuring fresh episodes of Chuck (which returns with a 3-D episode) and Heroes (which will be launching its new "Fugitives" volume).

The other headline here is ... read more 50 Comments
Watching The Office, as Jim ... | Matt Roush | 4/25/2008
Question: Watching The Office, as Jim showed the camera the engagement ring he bought Pam a week after they started dating, I was cheering (literally). But after the initial excitement wore off, I realized I was left with a sense of dread — a "what are they going to do to break Jim and Pam up" type of dread. It feels like the TV audience has been conditioned to think the worst when our favorite couples are on the brink of happiness. Maybe I am still jaded by the whole Gilmore Girls debacle, but it seems the only way we know a couple is safe from contrived roadblocks is when the show is near its end. That just isn't fair to the audience or the characters. My question is: What do you think of this latest development on The Office? Clearly Jim and Pam have issues they are not dealing with (both are working in underachieving jobs without trying to step out into careers they actually care about), but there doesn't seem to be anything realistic that could ruin this relationship that writers ... read more
Office Star: Convention Is a "Fan-omenal" Success! | Today's News: Our Take | 10/28/2007
Just as fans of the original version of The Office learned about the existence of the industrial town of Slough, where the U.K. series was set, now everyone knows about Scranton, Pennsylvania, where employees of the U.S. version report to work. In fact, thousands of fans of NBC's hit half-hour comedy ventured to northern Pennsylvania this weekend for the first Office convention, which runs through Oct. 28.The event began Friday morning on the Today show, with Al Roker introducing the University of Scranton cheerleaders. Throughout the town, local businesses, including but not limited to those that have been featured or referenced on the series, made the most of the influx of visitors, setting up special booths, hawking souvenirs and inviting fans to revisit memorable scenes from the show.While cast members such as Steve Carell, Rainn Wilson and Jenna Fischer could not make it to the convention, Dunder-Mifflin is being well represented by Kate Flannery (aka Meredith), Creed Bratton (... read more
Live Emmy Blog | Today's News: Our Take | 9/17/2007
10:03: Seacrest asks Paulie Walnuts from The Sopranos to stop shanking the seat fillers. This is just sad.10:04: Hiro from Heroes is introducing Tom from MySpace. This show just gets odder and odder. A voiceover is telling us about pods. I think it's an ad for this Current website? Did I get that right? It's no Facebook, but it must be somethin', 'cause now Al Gore is on stage and getting a standing O. I'm not entirely sure anybody else knows what the hell is going on, either; they just like Al.10:07: Al's wife looks a lot like Jane Fonda, only without so much plastic surgery. Al looks sorta sweaty. How far away was he seated? Or was he a victim of the solar panels on the red carpet?10:07:30: Joely Fisher is pulling off pastel yellow. Not easy to do. But she's another victim of too much spray-on tanning. Brad Garrett compliments her dress by saying she "just made Charlie Sheen's to-do list." Why isn't he hosting this thing? Heck, why isn't she?10:09: Time for one of those random sor... read more
