The Office Spin-Off Sitcom NBC Michael ScottYou read that right - The Office is getting a spin-off. Rumour has it it's about Pam and Jim raising a family together. Not just any family though - theirs consists of three children they found on an asteroid that crashed to Earth over 30,000 years ago. We know this because we read the script.

And by 'read it' we mean wrote it. And by that we mean we will write it soon. And by that we mean our nephew Ferdinand will scribble it down while we dictate. Our hands are withered and old. We can't even hold a pen.

But even if we do get our The Office spin-off prepped and ready - it'll have to settle for being next in line. A spin-off-spin-off if you will. That's because NBC just announced they've already got one gearing up for next season. 

Do you stay awake at night secretly hoping that Angela's cat didn't die in the freezer, but instead maybe it drifted slowly into cryostasis where it can be resuscitated once mankind has invented the proper microwave setting. Perhaps you want this because seeing Dwight cry into that little cherub statue left you feeling frazzled and gross. 

Or maybe you're more of an Oscar fan, and you'd like to see him realise his true feelings for Kevin - at least for an episode or two. Seriously - the tension there is driving us mad. While we're at it, perhaps you'd also like to see hecklerspray's mom allow us to move back in once she realises how sorry we are for yelling at her, and that in fact her meatloaf isn't always stupid and cold.

Please Mother, we're scared. You look so warm through the windows.

Well whatever The Office-related material you want to see, you may be getting a whole lot more of it - because it's getting a spin-off. Read For yourself:

"During Wednesday's annual upfront presentation of its fall schedule, NBC announced plans to air a spin-off of its Emmy-winning comedy The Office…While details about the spin-off are being kept under tight wraps, the show will hopefully take audiences on "another comic journey, complete with new faces and new locations, but with the same unique sense of humour and brand of quality from Daniels and his creative team. It's the next chapter of what viewers have come to know and love about 'The Office.'"

Thank you, eFluxMedia. And although NBC execs may be holding off on releasing major plot details, we have our suspicions as to the them. Creed moves to Miami and joins the local CSI program. Other Office cast members make cameos as dead bodies and what not. Also we find out that Creed's son was murdered years ago, and his was the one case he can never solve. Also he gets his own radio show with a bunch of people that are all just really funny and watchable. And David Spade.

Now that's good television.

    Who the heck is it going to be? I don’t want any of the characters to leave and have to go to a spin off that will suck. Spin offs always suck. Almost always.
