I'm torn. Karen was a pretty dominant character but I can't recall any spinoffs that have worked in the last 10 years. Not to mention the last NBCspinoff was Joey.
On the other hand, it might be good to break away from The Office mold which has already diverted from the original BBC version for betteror for worse.

I was pretty close to giving up on life. Thank goodness I have new episodes to look forward to now.

The Office
Expected to shoot 5 to 10 new episodes to air in April/May.

YES!!

At least scrape together one or two quick. Judging by this season (and three), putting a lot of effort into an episode and rushing one would result in pretty much the same thing, so...
Word - i'm glad it's coming back, but it was crap all this season so far.. hopefully the time off will make things return to old formsomehow.

It's not an actual spinoff. It's a completely new show with Rashida Jones (Karen) playing a completely different character.
