NBC has announced its Thursday night line-up for 2011-2012, with The Office retaining the 9pm slot for its eighth season.

Here is the new Thursday night schedule:

• 8-8:30pm: Community

30 Rock is scheduled to return mid-season; Outsourced has been canceled.

Even though the official NBC press release states that tonight’s episode of The Office is supersized to 50 minutes, my TiVo actually states 52 minutes. Plan accordingly!

‘Goodbye, Michael’ airs tonight 9/8c NBC; it’s preceded by a re-air of ‘Garage Sale’ at 8:30.

UPDATE 10:40am PT: NBC.com tweets “TUNE-IN ALERT: Be sure to double-check your DVRs as #TheOffice runs long tonight, 53 minutes to be exact!”
