1. Rainn Wilson performed a charity one man show in Longview, WA last Saturday. There's a WRITE UP here.
2. Why can't NBC simply show older episodes of THE OFFICE during the strike? The Star-Ledger explains. 3. What's going to fill THE OFFICE's time slot now that all the new episodes have been exhausted? Celebrity Apprentice. Sigh. 4. The NEW YORK TIMES has an interesting article about how ABC and the producers of LOST have already made deals for internet material similar to the terms the WGA is currently fighting for. 5. The cast of SNL put on a live benefit performance this past weekend at the UPRIGHT CITIZENS BRIGADE theater in NYC. Hosted by Michael Cera, and featuring a mix of old and "un-airable" sketches, all money raised went to support the "below the line" staff that had been let go (the $20 tickets were reportedly going for as much as $300 each). According to the New York Times, Johnny K. was in the audience. A live performance of a 30 ROCK episode was scheduled for last night in the same theater.

There could be contractual reasons why NBC can\'t take the material from the deleted scenes and put them back in (i.e., owing the cast and writers more money). As for the atrocity known as the Celebrity Apprentice (gag, indeed), I think they\'d rather air that and save SCRUBS for February in case the strike drags on into sweeps. Six episodes of Scrubs could give them three weeks of programming if they run them two a week. If the AMTP comes to their senses and this settles reasonably soon (say by the end of the year), expect the Apprentice to get bumped the moment they have new episodes of The Office available.

I just read via US mag. that Angela Kinsey is preggers!!! Yay to her and her hubby! So the natural first question from an office fan - Will Angela Martin be pregnant or do they shoot around it? She\\\'s due in May. In a normal season they would probably have wrapped a few weeks before that. Of course this is not a normal season so who knows what is going to happen.
