Creed Thoughts
Creed posted a new post over at Creed Thoughts.
You may have noticed it’s been many moons since I last posted. It’s not because I haven’t had any thoughts. Trust me – I’ve had tons. More than normal actually, thanks to that stint on peyote. And I’m 40-90% sure I posted them all. The only logical explanation: government censorship. It’s a real drag, man. But I refuse to let The Establishment keep me down. The people have a right to Creed Thoughts! Here’s a few that have been hanging around my cranium lately:
Buying a zoo in this economy is a pretty crappy idea, but it’s a lot better than buying the farm. (Cause that means you’re dead).
The Office Spinoff Starring Rainn Wilson?
Deadline.com also reports some news about season 9 of The Office. Please read with caution as the article is a tiny bit spoilerish.
‘The Office’ Spinoff Starring Rainn Wilson In The Works For Midseason 2013 Launch
I hear that NBC is working on an Office spinoff starring Rainn Wilson for a potential midseason 2013 launch. No deals have been closed yet but I’ve learned that the proposed spinoff is a family comedy, which was the brainchild of Wilson and The Office executive producer/showrunner Paul Lieberstein. It will have Dwight (Wilson) living at the Schrute family beet farm and bed & breakfast, which have been featured on the show several times, including in an episode where Jim and Pam visited Dwight there. (photos below) The potential spinoff will be introduced in an Office episode later this season set at Schrute Farms. “Paul and Rainn have been joking for years about Dwight’s life on the farm, his family and how ill-suited he is to run a B&B,” a source close to The Office said. “A while ago, it started to feel like a show to them. NBC agreed, it’s been further developed to include multiple generations, many cousins and neighbors. (It is unclear if that would include cousin Mose who has been featured on the show.)
At its base it will be about a family farm struggling to survive and a family trying to stay together.” Wilson and Lieberstein will executive produce the spinoff with The Office executive producers Ben Silverman, who has been working with Wilson and Lieberstein on the development of the project, and Howard Klein. Greg Daniels, who developed and executive produces The Office, is not involved in the offshoot.
I hear that The Office producer Universal Television has re-opened discussions with the other key Office cast members, approaching them over the past week or so with informal offers for next season. None of the core Office cast members, including Ed Helms, John Krasinksi and Mindy Kaling, have deals for next season, and while the studio can’t formally sign the actors before there is a renewal for the show, it is trying to shore them up in anticipation of a pickup. It may not be easy to get the whole gang back together.
