Dwight Schrute spin-off, The Farm will not be seen on the small screen

How many fans of THE OFFICE are left out there? I may be one of the few who can still raise their hands. While the past few seasons haven’t been quite stellar, I somehow find myself in front of the TV on a Thursday night to tune in.

For those who are still watching, how are you liking the eighth and final season? I’m actually kind of enjoying it, and it seems that they are trying to do as much as they can with the series before it ends. What happens after it does end?

There were plans to make a Dwight Schrute spin-off called, THE FARM. The series would follow Dwight’s life on the beet farm with cousin, Mose and introduce us to more Schrute’s like Majandra Delfino as the younger sister. Now even after recording a pilot for the show, it looks like THE FARM will never make it to the small screen, according to a Tweet from Rainn Wilson:

“NBC has passed on moving forward with The Farm TV show. Had a blast making the pilot – onwards & upwards!”

It’s possible that we could still see the pilot, or an episode reflecting what could have been THE FARM during this season of THE OFFICE since it was originally planned that way. For those still watching, I guess we will find out if it ends up on the show sooner or later.
