Rashida Jones won’t be back next season on The Office

Tuesday, February 13th, 2007 on SpoilerBuzz.com

Rashida Jones, who plays Karen on The Office, won’t be back next season. But don’t dispair, it is because Rashida has landed a new pilot, according to Kristin from E!

Looks like that man-stealing ho—er, honey—Karen is taking her claws out of our precious Jim Halpert.

The news broke today that Rashida Jones (The Office’s Karen) has been cast on the new Fox comedy The Rules of Starting Over (alongside Boston Legal’s Craig Bierko), and insiders close to NBC confirm to me that Rashida is not expected to be employed under the roof of The Office after the season finale in May.

Of course, Rashida is talented and loveable and will be sorely missed (her character’s interaction with Phyllis is the stuff that spinoffs are made of), but this is also glorious, squeal-worthy news for us fans of Jim and Pam who are desperately seeking a bona fide Jam couple.

The only hitch? Insiders also tell me that Roy is not out of the picture—and will be making another play for Pam. So, hey, all you producers of new series, have you met David Denman, who plays Roy? He would be an excellent addition to any cast!

Rashida Jones is so good on The Office, she’ll be a loss to the show, but it will definitely be interesting to see how she and Craig Bierko work together on the new pilot.

Ed Helms now a regular on The Office

Sunday, February 4th, 2007 on SpoilerBuzz.com

Fans of former Daily Show’s Ed Helms will be happy to hear that he has been promoted on The Office. Formerly, he was cast as simply a special guest star, but now he will be a series regular according to Zap2It!

Ed Helms, who’s had a recurring part on the Emmy-winning NBC comedy this season, has been bumped up to a series regular for the remainder of the year. That would seem to indicate that his character, Andy Bernard, is more or less a permanent fixture in the Scranton, Pa., office of paper company Dunder Mifflin.

Helms and Rashida Jones, who plays co-worker Karen Filippelli, moved to the Scranton office from Stamford, Conn., along with three others when the two branches merged in a November episode. The others have since quit or been fired, leaving Andy and Karen as the lone Stamfordites remaining.

This could make things pretty interesting since it seemed he wouldn’t be around again!
