It’s possible that NBC’s The Office might be permanently supersized!
In an article today on CNNMoney.com, CEO of NBC Universal Jeff Zucker said he’s considering expanding the half-hour sitcom to an hour-long show:
At NBC’s “upfront” presentation to advertisers on May 14, Zucker says he expects NBC to unveil five new programs – three dramas, one comedy, and one reality show – for its fall schedule. Zucker and [Kevin] Reilly are considering stretching The Office to an hour and canceling the original Law & Order.
YESSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!
Also mentioned in the article: NBC’s 30 Rock will return for a second season.
Now, if only they’d greenlight Honky Grandma Be Trippin’.

SCORE. My only hesitance is that when 30 mins of The Office ends, you’re left wanting more. Will the goodness become watered-down when it’s stretched to an hour…?
