The big news from the TCA's Monday executive session with NBC co-chairs Ben Silverman and Marc Graboff:
There are two projects in development from The Office's' executive producer Greg Daniels and Office' writer Mike Schur.
Daniels and Schur are working on a comedy starring Amy Poehler, and that probably won't premiere until about March 2009.

Just when I was thinking the loud guy should give up the mic (one person asking quite a few questions in a row is co...
