No OFFICE Spinoff!! SNL's Amy Poehler To Join NBC's New Not-Spinoff From OFFICE Creators!!

I am – Hercules!!



The spin-off of “The Office” won’t be a spin-off after all!

And Amy Poehler will be joining her old pal Tina Fey on Thursday nights!

The long-planned NBC sitcom from “Office” writer-producers Greg Daniels and Mike “Mose” Schur will not share characters with the Steve Carell series, but will still get the post-“Office” timeslot early next year.

Poehler will star in the new series alongside fellow sketch-show vet Aziz Ansari (“Human Giant”) in the not-spinoff.

She’ll presumably quit “Saturday Night Live,” where she’s been a cast member since 2001.

The title and premise of the new sitcom are as yet undisclosed and perhaps even undetermined.

An item on E! -- quoting an "always been reliable" source who said "Office" vet Rashida Jones will be part of the new series -- is now obviously open to question.

Find all of Variety’s story on the matter here.
