The Office Round Up Jan 28

by LiRa

2007_05_14_TheOffice_Upfronts_06.jpgHey everyone! We welcome another week…without a new Office episode. How has the strike been developing lately? And when will our favorite shows be back with fresh episodes? Deadline Hollywood has reported that recent sit downs between the studio and the writers proved very optimistic. And some studios have already brokered deals separately. So, those are good signs, right?

Well, despite the strike, the blogs of Dwight and Creed continue to be updated. I really am wondering what’s the fine print and arrangement for this, considering that these blogs have got to be the workings of a WGA member. Or is it the case really?

Over the last couple of weeks, rumors went around that Jenna Fischer was dating David Spade. She addresses this very same issue on her blog saying she has never met the man, “Imagine my surprise as… I’VE NEVER MET David Spade! What a milestone! My first TOTALLY 100% UNTRUE tabloid report!” | Read her funny blog entry here. And also, read this latest interview of Jenna from Insite Magazine, as well as this one from Total Magazine.

John Krasinski’s next project? Probably a comedy with Sam Mendes and David Eggers about “a couple, pregnant with their first child, as they travel America looking for the ideal place to settle down.” By the way, he was recently on Cosmo Magazine and they named him one of the Fun Fearless Males of 2008.

Jumping over to The Office UK…

Mackenzie Crook, who plays Gareth Keenan in the British version of the Office (the Dwight counterpart) has hijacked the Big Brother house. The concept of this game is a bit different from the Big Brother we know, since the rules and tasks are given by the house mates themselves. And for MacKenzie, he declares it is Nerds Day in the house.

And Ricky Gervais has his Golden Globe acceptance speech on YouTube. He wishes the writers good luck and talks about his future movie plans, The Office Chile, his controversial book, Flanimals and an upcoming The Office book.

About Watching The Office

Watching The Office follows the lives of office workers in the fictional Dunder Mifflin Paper Company, as they face day to day business operations under the guidance or actually, misguidance, of their often inappropriate boss, Michael Scott. One of NBC's best comedy shows, The Office is the incarnation of a revolutionary BBC TV comedy bearing the same title. Hailed for its sharp humor and unique concept, The Office has received multiple recognitions from several award giving bodies since its USA premiere in 2005. Watching The Office will cover everything we get our hands on regarding the show, And from time to time, we will also bring the spotlight on its British version. So, pick a desk and settle down. Let's get working…
