James Spader Is Leaving The Office


Taking his money and running from the network that only has one hit show, James Spader is leaving The Office at the end of the season. Even though his contract has an option, James wants out which means he probably has another television show lined up or wants to do something where people actually watch him each week. I watched him and think he was really good. I think the issue is that the character has some limits and when you see him every week those limits are exposed. Wow. Can you tell I have been reading film reviews for the past week about the Oscars. That sounded a little insightful and pretentious of me. Don't worry I slapped myself and I am ok now.

Lucy Davis Files For Divorce From Owain Yeoman


After being basically separated for the past three years, but officially since January, former UK Office star, Lucy Davis filed for divorce from her husband, Owain Yeoman who is on The Mentalist. You know, if you combine him with Simon Baker, do you think that show has the best looking pretty boys on it? I think other shows have the claim on the gritty good looking people, but also they are on cable and The Mentalist is on CBS. Anyway, Lucy was the original Pam before Jenna Fischer became Pam. If you have never seen the UK version of The Office it is brilliant. It makes you way more uncomfortable than watching the American version. The first few episodes of each are almost exactly the same if you want to compare and make sure you watch the last episode where David Brent goes on a reality tour.

The Office As A Drama - With Toby Starring

It is amazing what you can do with a little editing. The comedy show becomes something entirely different.

James Spader Confirmed As New Boss At The Office


In the season finale last year, I thought James Spader was the best actor they put in that episode, but I am also unsure if it would translate into an entire 26 episode season. It will certainly provide a new dynamic and make The Office dramatically different than it was in the past. The lines you write for Steve Carell as Michael Scott are not the same you write for James Spader as Robert California. I kind of enjoyed Creed being boss. A whole season if him being the boss could be hilarious.
