BREAKING NEWS FROM THE WORLD OF HOLLYWOOD!!!
Just got off the phone with an NBC insider who told me how the producers plan to continue The Office once Steve Carell leaves the show. Let me tell you, the writers have cooked up an INGENIOUS plotline that should leave every Office fan satisfied. If you've been worried about a Michael Scott-less Dunder Mifflin, this ought to put your worries to rest.

So, who's replacing Michael Scott?
Michael Scott!!!
In an upcoming episode, Michael decides he doesn't want to be part of the documentary anymore, and requests that the crew digitally pixellate his face and modulate his voice. This will continue for the remainder of the series, thus eschewing the need for writing out Michael or replacing Steve Carell (a production assistant will stand in for Michael's body). You've got to hand it to those clever Office writers for coming up with a seamless way to continue without Carell's involvement! Can't wait to see how it turns out.
