Money!! Thursday Also
Brings The Year’s Final Hour-Long Edition of THE OFFICE!!

I am – Hercules!!

Dwight now knows he is the superior being, but how is he coping with Angela’s impending Abba-fueled romance with Andy?

NBC returns “Scrubs” to the Thursday-night schedule next week. NBC describes the year’s last hour-long installment of “The Office”:

Oct. 18
“MONEY”
EASY COME, EASY GO–As Jan (Melora Hardin) renovates the condo, Michael (Golden Globe winner Steve Carell) confronts his growing debt every way he can, which includes pressuring his employees for a loan. Pam (Jenna Fischer) and Jim (John Krasinski) spend a night out on Dwight’s (Rainn Wilson) family farm, now a bed and breakfast. B.J. Novak, Ed Helms, Leslie David Baker, Brian Baumgartner, Kate Flannery, Oscar Nunez, Phyllis Smith, Paul Lieberstein, Mindy Kaling, Creed Bratton and Craig Robinson also star.

NBC describes the upcoming half-hour installments:

Oct. 25
“LOCAL AD”
THE WONDERFUL WORLD OF ADVERTISING – When the Scranton branch is asked to participate in a Dunder Mifflin ad, Michael (Golden Globe winner Steve Carell) seizes his chance to exhibit his creativity. Meanwhile, Dwight (Rainn Wilson) explores the online world of Second Life. John Krasinski, Jenna Fischer, B.J Novak, Ed Helms, Leslie David Baker, Brian Baumgartner, Kate Flannery, Mindy Kaling, Angela Kinsey, Paul Lieberstein, Oscar Nunez, Phyllis Smith, Creed Bratton and Craig Robinson also star.

Nov. 1
“BRANCH WARS”
BATTLE OF THE BRANCHES — RASHIDA JONES (”Boston Public”) GUEST STARS — When Karen (guest star Rashida Jones) tries to woo Stanley (Leslie David Baker) away from Scranton, Michael (Golden Globe winner Steve Carell) fights back, dragging her ex, Jim (John Krasinski), into his war. Meanwhile, the existence of a “Finer Things Club” further disturbs Dunder Mifflin’s calm.

Nov. 8
“SURVIVOR MAN”
INTO THE WOODS-SPECIAL GREEN WEEK EPISODE — After Ryan (B.J. Novak) excludes Michael (Golden Globe winner Steve Carell) from a corporate wilderness retreat, Michael heads into the woods for his own survival adventure with nothing but the suit on his back. Back at work, Jim (John Krasinski) tries to revolutionize the office birthday party. Rainn Wilson, Jenna Fischer, Leslie David Baker, Brian Baumgartner, Ed Helms, Angela Kinsey, Kate Flannery, Oscar Nunez, Phyllis Smith, Mindy Kaling, Paul Lieberstein, Creed Bratton and Craig Robinson also star.

For those keeping track, Paul Leiberstein (who plays Michael’s archenemy, human resources director Toby) wrote and directed tonight’s installment. Joss Whedon directs “Branch Wars.” Harold Ramis, who previously helmed “A Benihana Christmas,” “Safety Training” and “Beach Day,” could have directed “Local Ad” or “Survivor Man.” (NBC remains shy about the publicizing the big-deal directors who helm this show from time to time.)

We leave you with a reminder that, unless someone is perpetrating an enormous scam, the cast and writers of “The Office,” which shoots in Van Nuys, Calif., are going to be in the real Scranton, Pa., in about a week to attend a convention dedicated to the not-quite-three-year-old series. Tickets are $25 to $250. Read more of this here.
