Super Sized Office after the Super Bowl

NBC is pulling out all the stops on Super Bowl Sunday. It’s the one night of the year the station is GUARANTEED to have viewers, and lots of them! So what are they doing? Showing their best show “The Office” of course. Me personally, I’m not a fan of it, it’s quite boring actually and I’m sure and by the networks rating I’m sure they know most people think that way. So how do you keep people watching after the game? You bring in star power!

That’s right NBC is bringing in the heavyweights and at the same time touching on a sour spot in the industry. So far the network has scheduled Jack Black and Jessica Alba to appear on the show, there are more announcements expected. I’ll tell you what. If Alba is a part of this show, I’ll be watching without a doubt. Especially when the word is these actors and actresses will be playing themselves.

The official title for the show is “Stress Relief”. NBC released a statement saying what the show was about, “In one plot of the special post-Super Bowl episode of The Office, some of the office workers try to secretly watch a bootlegged Hollywood movie during the workday. The movie stars Jack Black and other notable Hollywood actors.”

As many know bootlegging is a very big problem in the industry and a problem they take very seriously. Knowing the office it will be their normal dumb humor but at the same time most likely try to educate the viewer with it. At least that’s what I’m assuming, I could be dead wrong. Regardless this is one episode of the Office I’ll be watching. Unless of course my New York Giants win back to back Super Bowls, then I’ll be out partying the night away!
