'Office' exclusive: Is Pam being replaced?!

Tags:

If you thought Michael’s abrupt resignation on last night’s Office was the only personnel change in store at Dunder Mifflin, you thought wrong.

Sources confirm to me exclusively that Ellie Kemper, a veteran of the SNL breeding ground known as Upright Citizens Brigade, has been cast as the show’s new (wait for it… ) receptionist!

What does this mean for Pam? Is the new boss promoting her or firing her? Or is Jim’s honey following Michael’s lead and quitting, too? Speculate away in the comments section!

    NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Christy

    Hmm…I did hear that another staff member would quit in support of Michael. Maybe it’s Pam! That could be a fun way for the writers to mess with Jam.

  • ace

    good! pam and jim are the worst part of the show!

  • Laura

    Wasn’t Pam already out of the office for like 8 episodes this season? Ugh. I guess I might be able to deal as long as it doesn’t last for a long time. I know Elba is only on for 6 episodes and then I assume Michael will be returning. So I hope Pam comes back too.

  • Amy

    no no.
    no no.
    Not cool.

  • CJ

    It’s because Pam is preggers & going on mat leave!

  • MikeNJD

    As I said about Ausi’s scoop about Elizabeth Mitchell,
    Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!!!!!!

  • Josh Emerson

    I was gonna say the same as CJ. Kristin says someone on the show is pregnant so this would tie into that!

  • tvfanwendy

    I bet Pam gets a promotion from the new boss while Jim stuggles to impress him. This could cause tension in their relationship.

  • Jodi

    I bet she’s the new receptionist for the corporate office, NOT the Scranton branch.

  • Ellen

    tvfanwendy– what would she be promoted to? Is she actually qualified for anything–certainly not sales? And it’s not like they did an extra person in any other department.
    Just curious on your ideas.

  • Kristin

    This is incredibly unfair. Why are they taking Pam out of the office again? Pam is my favorite character! UGH!

  • Lillie

    Dunder Mifflin won’t be the same without Pam. Why are they taking her out of the office for the second time this season? I hope she and Jim won’t break up!

  • Lou
  • Josh

    I’m starting to think it is April Fools already with all this show changing news! Fist Mitchell and now Fischer? What gives?
