The Office mostly not moving to hour-long format

Remember when I told you there were rumors of The Office moving from a 30-minute format to an hour format next season? Welllllllllll, even today there were rumors flying around because Kristin Veitch from E! Online kinda made us think it would be the case, but the truth is that four episodes out of 24 will be an hour long next season. That's why they're called rumors. :)

The original rumor announcement from Kristin has been preserved by Office Tally and, again, is not true:

Original story:

E!’s Kristin Veitch reports that the possibility of The Office becoming a one-hour show this fall is stronger than ever:

I’ve just heard from multiple insiders that it’s looking very likely that NBC will double the amount of The Office we’ll get next season. I’m told it’s looking like each episode will expand to be an hourlong; however, if that plan falls through for some reason, I’m hearing that, at the very least, NBC wants to pick up something like 37 episodes of the show in its current half-hour format.
