A spin-off of The Office, the second-funniest show on television, has just been given the green light by NBC. More details are supposedly going to be announced later today, but early scuttlebutt is that the new series will follow Dwight Schrute (Rainn Wilson), the bizarre bobble-head loving assistant to the regional manager. He'll move to Los Angeles and befriend an Italian-American aspiring actor who misses his friends back home. [THR]
