I absolutely love The Office. It will always be very close to my heart. That being said, I did stop watching after Michael left. Well, to be fair, I think I did watch an episode or two after that, and a couple of months ago, I did watch half of the last season finale, but that’s about it. I jsut couldn’t do it. The Office without Steve Carell is like … well, I don’t know what it’s like, because I didn’t really watch it. Is it all right?
But listen. As much as the show changed when Michael left, it looks like it’s about to undergo a pretty massive overhaul. Like, a huge, huge change. They’re actually calling it The Office 2.0.
From Deadline:
NBC’s The Office went through a major transformation at the beginning of this season, following the departure of original star Steve Carell. But I hear the show, which has not been officially renewed, may undergo an even more dramatic change going into next fall. Word is thatThe Office executive producer Greg Daniels, who originally developed the American version of the cult British comedy, is mulling a reboot of the series, now in its eighth season. Daniels is expected to meet with NBC brass to lay out his idea for The Office 2.0, which I hear would feature existing characters as well as new ones.
As for The Office key original cast members John Krasinski, Jenna Fischer and B.J. Novak, whose contracts are up at the end of this season, as well as that of Ed Helms, there hasn’t been a lot of movement in the negotiations over the past few weeks, following an early overture by the network around the time The Office spinoff starring Rainn Wilson came together. There are a number of major outstanding questions, including the number of episodes the stars would sign for. Helms has The Hangover threequel and Krasinski is eying a possible January movie shoot, so potential new deals for them will likely accommodate that the way House accommodated Olivia Wilde when her feature career took off.
Also unclear is how long The Office would keep going. I hear the main cast may want next season to be last while NBC is leaning towards not closing the door to one additional season. I hear no major decisions will be made until NBC brass review their crop of pilots for next season.
Basically, no. This sounds like a horrible plan. I love this show, but I think it’s time to let it go.
What do you guys think? Does The Office still have a few good seasons left in it, or is it over? Are you going to watch Rainn Wilson’s spin-off? Hey, remember that time that Michael was using the GPS and drove into a lake?
Why oh why, couldn’t they just give us a great series finale when Steve Carell left? As great as all of the characters are, that show was Michael Scott. It’s time to stop.
idk, i still watch the show and think it’s really great and funny. andy is fantastic as the new boss.
I really like the way the show has developed where before it was just about Michael Scott, it now includes all the characters. Steve was good but I think that story line ended a few seasons ago, in a way I am glad he left the show it just gave everyone else equal screen time.
I think there is still some life in the show it is still funny, just not in the “old” way.
I do not have idea that what is happening in the office?
