Big news from Office-land: NBC is going to start airing reruns on Sunday nights.
Just kidding. That’s not the big news. (But it’s true.)
No, the news is that someone has a bun in the oven. And I don’t mean Angela Kinsey, who gave birth Saturday to Isabel Ruby.

No, I’m talking about a character. And we’re going to find out by the finale nine days from now. At least that’s what Korbi Ghosh, formerly of E! and now of Zap2it is reporting.
While I can’t come right out and spread the word on who’s expecting (unless you want me to alienate the entire staff of The Office on the first day of KTV), I will say that this pregnancy has the potential to change everything. And it’s also hilariously funny, too … That is, if you find comedy in hopeless situations that are anchored in deceit and despair, as I do!
That’s pretty intriguing stuff. I’m ruling out Meredith, Phyllis, Kelly and Madge as either unlikely or uninteresting possibilities. (Come on, Madge is too part of the show!) That leaves Pam, Angela and Jan. (For the time being, Jan, too, is still part of the show.)
Any one of the three would be a game-changer, but only pregnant Jan has the potential for hopelessness, deceit and despair. I guess you could argue those are Angela’s idea of family values, but I don’t buy it. Korbi does back off that point a tad, so I take it all with a grain of salt.
It’s too soon for Pam and Jam to have a baby, so I hope they don’t go there. Angela is a distinct possibility, but my gut says no.
The pregnancy storyline is popping up elsewhere, though. And TVGuide.com’s Michael Ausiello did say an Office pregnancy was a possibility. For the record, I think it’s a horrible plot twist, no matter who it is.
As for those re-runs, look for the hour-longs “Fun Run” and “Dunder Mifflin Infinity” this Sunday and the also-hour-longs “Launch Party” and “Money” a week later.
