Why The Office Rarely Had Celebrities Play Themselves - TVLine (opens the original)
Read excerpt
"The Office" carved out its place in television history despite a reputation for not leaning heavily on big-name actors or celebrity cameos (like when "The Simpsons" got Lindsay Lohan to voice Maggie). The lack of recognizable faces wasn't due to a lack of interest from Hollywood A-listers, either. It was a deliberate decision from the show's creative team — despite plenty of pressure from NBC to the contrary. Lee Eisenberg was a writer and producer for the show (and is recognizable for his mino
Why The Office's First Episode Was So Similar To The UK Version - TVLine (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Even though the American version of "The Office" ended up having some very unique storylines, its pilot feels almost like a direct copy of the original British version of the sitcom. The copycat approach isn't a lack of imagination. The show's creator, Greg Daniels, told The Hollywood Reporter that he wanted the show to have its own unique tone, and following the British "Office" pilot closely insulated him from losing that freedom. The goal in maintaining the similarities between the two shows'
Robin Williams' Final TV Role Was In A Short-Lived Sitcom With Sarah Michelle Gellar - TVLine (opens the original)
Read excerpt
What happens when Buffy the Vampire Slayer teams up with the Genie from "Aladdin"? You get a middling comedy about a marketing firm. At least, that was the case when Robin Williams teamed up with Sarah Michelle Gellar for what would end up being the iconic comedy star's final on-screen TV role in "The Crazy Ones." The show follows the foibles of a Chicago ad agency established by eccentric marketing genius Simon Roberts (Robin Williams) and his highly driven, hyper-organized (read: Type-A) daugh
Community Scripts Would Regularly Tell One Actor To Improvise Their Lines - TVLine (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Troy Barnes (Donald Glover) stands out in "Community" for his hilarious one-liners, often in the form of random zingers that come at the very end of a scene. It turns out, the magic that makes Troy so special on-screen is more than Glover's ability to read a well-written script. The man improvised many of his lines himself. In an interview with MS NOW, show creator Dan Harmon explained how his team of writers would often handle Troy's one-off commentary, saying, "If we were operating at a fast e
A Fan-Favorite Star Trek: TNG Episode Convinced Audiences The Broadcast Was Glitching - TVLine (opens the original)
Read excerpt
"Star Trek: The Next Generation" was never afraid to tackle a complex topic, including time travel. While this has given us some of the best moments in sci-fi, there is one time-based story that was so confusing, it pulled the wool over the audiences' eyes when it premiered. "Cause and Effect" is a must-watch "Next Generation" episode, but when Episode 18 of Season 5 aired on March 23, 1992, the live audience actually thought it was glitching, and they weren't thrilled about it. (Even though, ov
