The Office: What that...wha?! File this under biggest bummer we've heard in a long while. Steve Carell recently chatted with BBC Radio (you can hear the audio for yourself here) and revealed a sad truth: Michael Scott may in fact be vacating The Office after just one more year. After stating that his contract runs "through next season," Carell said, "I think that will probably be my last year."

So what do NBC and our sources have to say about this? Plus, what's the latest on Glee, Desperate Housewives and Brothers & Sisters?

So far, no word from NBC; however, one Office insider tells us, "This could be a negotiating ploy, but honestly, I don't think so in this case." We're also told that it's highly unlikely The Office would continue without the self-proclaimed "World's Best Boss" (Michael Scott/Steve Carell).

And so....paging Amy Ryan! If Michael's sayin' so long to The Office, he'd better get the girl and ride off into the Scranton sunset in with his one true love, Holly Flax.

Glee: Glee? More like wheee! We're about to get a whole lot more of the hilarious sisterhood of Brittany and Santana. Sources tell EW.com that both Heather Morris and Naya Rivera are set to become series regulars next season. Can we get an amen!

Desperate Housewives: Does two more years on Wisteria Lane tickle your fancy? Well, lucky you because word on the street is that ABC is thisclose to signing a deal that would deliver just that. So stay tuned...

Brothers & Sisters: When one gorgeous door closes (aka Rob Lowe), another one opens (aka Gilles Marini). B&S's sexy Luc has officially been promoted to full-time Walker status for next season. Also out of the ABC hit is Luke Grimes' Ryan Walker, who just never really clicked with audiences.

So this morning is a mixed bag of good news and bad. Do you think The Office should continue without Steve Carell? Does Desperate Housewives have a enough juice left in it for two more years? Can you handle more ridiculous one-liners from Glee's Brittany? Go be brilliant in the comments section!
