Ricky Gervais plots Emmy revenge

We now interrupt today’s kidnapping vigil with this article from the L.A. Times’ The Envelope:

When Ricky Gervais wasn’t present at last year’s Emmys to accept his upset victory for best comedy actor (“Extras”), Steve Carell leapt to the stage and claimed the statuette on behalf of the man who trailblazed his role on the original “The Office” … if Carell wins best comedy actor for the U.S. version of “The Office” on Sept. 21, “I’m going to beat him to the stage just to even things up,” Ricky Gervais says. “I’m going to wrestle him to the ground and get his Emmy before he can.”

Chile to remake ‘The Office’

From Variety:

BBC Worldwide Americas has licensed “The Office” for a local remake in Chile.

It’s the first format deal in Latin America for Ricky Gervais and Stephen Merchant’s comedy and the first Spanish-language version.

“We stopped making ‘The Office’ in 2003, but the rest of the world didn’t,” Gervais said. “I won’t be happy until I see an Inuit doing the dance.”
