NBC has decided to do what they call an “in-front” presentation of next season’s year-round programming strategy, which includes lineups for fall, winter and as far ahead as next summer.
NBC president Ben Silverman is still invested in the series that put him on the map: The peacock network has ordered an Office spinoff, set to premiere this winter in the 9:30 slot after the original series
It will premiere immediately following the Super Bowl in January '09.
Greg Daniels is "behind" the idea, even though he and his writing team will clearly be kind of busy doing the 28 half-hours of the original series that NBC has requested for the '08-'09 season.
Per Ben Silverman, it is "very likely" you will see some Dunder-Mifflin-ites cross over to the new series.
Expanded hour-long Office episodes is how next season will begin. In October for several weeks, the second half-hour will be taken over by prime-time Saturday Night Live political specials.
