NBC Branching Out for ‘Office’ Spinoff?
Television’s favourite paper company may be setting up shop in a spinoff.
According to Ask Ausiello, NBC is developing the show, which would not include any of the original show’s characters. Instead, taking a cue from “Private Practice,” new characters would be introduced on the original comedy before heading off to their own show.
Producers are looking for a big name celebrity to star.
Spinoffs are usually forwned upon by the public, but skeptics should remember how successful the American adaptation of “The Office” has become, despite the idea being greatly opposed at first by UK “Office” viewers.
