NBC Passes On ‘The Office’ Spin-Off ‘The Farm’
To many fans disappointment NBC’s long-running comedy series The Office is coming to an end after this season. There were plans for a spin-off that would center on Rainn Wilson’s Dwight in the works. This would mean you’d get more The Office-ish material with the chance of some of your favorites stopping by for a visit. Well, sorry for the bad news guys but it appears things are really coming to an end.
Farm Update: NBC has passed on moving forward with The Farm TV show. Had a blast making the pilot – onwards & upwards!

NBC has chosen to pass on the pilot for the spin-off, titled The Farm, which would see Dwight run a bed and breakfast inn. The new series was to star Wilson alongside Thomas Middleditch as Dwight’s brother and Majandra Delfino as his sister. However, the pilot will still air as an episode of The Office later this season, as originally intended.
