From press release:

NBC has renewed the popular series “The Office,” “30 Rock” and “The Biggest Loser” each for an additional year through the 2009-2010 season, it was announced today by Angela Bromstad, President, Primetime Entertainment, NBC and Universal Media Studios, and Paul Telegdy, Executive Vice President, Alternative Programming, NBC and Universal Media Studios.

“These renewals represent our faith in ‘The Office’ and ’30 Rock’ as they continue to represent the gold standard in acclaimed and award-winning series,” said Bromstad. “We want the devoted fans of these series to know that we are thrilled that these quality programs will be back with the same high-caliber episodes that viewers have come to expect.”

“The Office” is the season’s #1 comedy in adults 18-34 and is tied for the #2 ranking overall, according to “most current” averages from Nielsen Media Research through the season’s opening 16 weeks. The acclaimed fifth-season comedy also has the most upscale audience for a primetime series on any broadcast networks in terms of its concentration of adults 18-49 living in homes with $100,000-plus incomes. “The Office” is averaging a 4.9 rating, 12 share among adults 18-49, a 5.8/15 among adults 18-34 and 9.4 million viewers overall. .

   This is the funniest programme, even on British TV, at the moment.I think that Pam’s character, has grown as the series have gone on, and as her confidence has shown, she has shown some of the funniest comments, and talking heads on the show. And with her on screen chemistry with Jim, they both show a great comedy pairing, whilst at times, show some realistic touching moments, that people can relate to.

   I fell off my chair laughing during the CPR class when Dwight cut off the practice dummy’s face and was wearing it like Hannibal Lector. Great show, can’t get enough!

    I just LOOOOOVE Jim! He is so awesome, with his crazy officepranks :) I assume everyone who has commented has seen the final episode in season 5, yes? He is such a good actor, especially in that episode. I get tears in my eyes when he get the news :p He is so adorable. Don’t you agree?

    Television’s best show, I seriously feel so awkward and uncomfortable in my own living room at some of Michael’s antics, or Jim’s shutdowns. Extremely funny and I am so excited about season 6!!!

    Hey,
    Much agreed, thank you NBC. Also, Jim is a bad ass and it will forever be Thursday (as far as Dwight is concerned.) The new season is the goal of my entire next year. Keep em’ coming Mr. Carell

    Thank god, I absolutely love this show. I am in the navy deployed on a ship right now, and I was introduced to the office. I have now watched every season and cannot wait for the next one. This show has really lifted my spirits out here while I am away from all my family and friends. Thank you NBC and the entire cast of the office.

    “Being british i thought the us office would not live up to the bbc version..”

    Gervais is still having his caring hands over it as the producer. I doubt it would have been such success without him. The BBC version certainly was his experimental playground for this . Kudos to the actors too.
