On the heels of ABC's announcements, NBC has declared what its Fall schedule will look like, with some shows not returning to the network and new original programming coming in. We'd already heard much of NBC's news, but here are some interesting tidbits from today:
- NBC has dropped My Name Is Earl and Medium, though it's possible other networks may pick those up. CBS appears fairly likely to snag Medium while Earl could land at Fox or ABC.
- Chuck fans will have to wait until after the 2010 Olympics to get their fix, as the show won't return until February 2010.

I want to go to Cafe Disco so badly. I'm serious! Dancing, "expresso," the cast of The Office — it looks like so much fun.

Look out, America: Mindy Kaling is launching her takeover. The writer and actress — best known as Kelly Kapoor from The Office — has just signed a big deal with NBC that means she'll keep writing for and appearing on The Office while developing a potential new sitcom in which she'd be the star.
But wait, it gets better.

"Oh, it is on, like a prawn who yawns at dawn."
Yes, it is, Office fans! In my opinion, this episode is definitely on like a prawn who yawns at dawn.

Uh-oh — all the cheese puff tossing in the world can't distract the employees of the Michael Scott Paper Company from the fact that their low, low prices are causing the company to go broke. But at the same time, Dunder-Mifflin has been rapidly losing clients to the Michael Scott Paper Company, and David Wallace pays a visit to the Scranton branch to figure out what to do about it. A chain of kissing up ensues (Dwight to Charles, Charles to David).

The Michael Scott Paper Company has gone from something that seemed extremely sad to a place that seems almost kinda fun. There are certainly days I wish I could spend throwing and catching cheese puffs. And once again, though we know Michael's a little slow on the uptake, he still manages to show that he can be a pretty solid paper salesman when need be.

After Michael's (and Pam's!) surprising departure from Dunder-Mifflin, all our favorite Scrantonites are adjusting to the new way of things — Jim's still struggling with "new boss" Charles, and the office has a new receptionist, Kelly (now Erin, since there are two Kellys). Meanwhile, Michael and Pam are taking their first shaky steps toward running the brand-new Michael Scott Paper Company.
Two whole episodes to talk about — what did you think of The Office this week?

Only three weeks into the show, and NBC has chopped Chopping Block, its new food reality TV competition starring UK bad boy chef Marco Pierre White.
Chopping Block turned out meager viewership, drawing a mere 2.6 million viewers last week. NBC said it hopes to bring the show back at a later date — but for now it'll be replaced by reruns of Law & Order: Criminal Intent.

I'm curious to find out your reactions to this week's episode of The Office because I have to admit, it's not my fave. Not much Dwight (and no Jim/Dwight pranks) and not nearly enough Andy for my taste. Still, even the kinda disappointing episodes of The Office are way better than most other things on TV!

"You have no idea how high I can fly."
Wow! I was starting to think that this was yet another episode in which someone comes in and makes Michael look insane, and then Michael becomes pitiable again and then everything goes back to normal.
