John Krasinksi is as sneaky as Jim Halpert!

Turns out John Krasinski is just as big of a trickster as his character on "The Office." In a recent interview with Mashable, the show's hairstylist Kim Ferry recalled the "Quiet Place" star, now 40, wanted to appear in the film "Leatherheads" while still working on the third season of "The Office." The catch: Krasinski would have to cut his hair for the role, and Greg Daniels, the comedy's showrunner, had vetoed the cut.

Could you tell that John Krasinski was wearing a wig in season three of “The Office”? Because he was.

Danielle Turchiano Senior Features Editor, TVThe seeds for “Upload,” the Amazon Prime Video comedy about a young man named Nathan (Robbie Amell) who has his consciousness sent to a digital afterlife, were planted in creator Greg Daniels’ mind three decades ago, when technology was so different that such an idea was truly the stuff of science fiction.

Dino-Ray Ramos Associate Editor/ReporterSpace Force creator Greg Daniels is known for workplace comedies like The Office and Parks and Recreation, but the new Netflix series presents a different kind of comedy that stems from the real-life, newly formed branch of the military.

If you were to go to a random fan of NBC’s “The Office” and ask them what their favorite episodes of the series are, it wouldn’t take long for them to mention “Niagara.” The Season 6 two-parter is the culmination of a love affair that spanned the entirety of the series, with Jim and Pam finally tying the knot. But according to a recent behind-the-scenes book about the series, “Niagara” could have become one of the more polarizing episodes if not for the foresight of Steve Carell.

“The Office” almost went over a cliff, literally, but thankfully Steve Carell was there to save it.

In this very moment, and for the last three years of our current administration, American idiocy, political and otherwise, seems so pungently ripe for ridicule. So, when the creators of “The Office” and Steve Carrell announced they were creating a “Space Force” show for Netflix to mock the real-life initiative promoted by the oafish President Donald Trump and his inept White House, the premise and series seemed like a slam dunk that should easily write itself.

I'm just going to come right out and say it: The new Netflix comedySpace Force is a complete and utter disappointment. When you look at the creative minds behind Space Force — Steve Carell reuniting with The Office creator Greg Daniels! — it should be The Right Stuff of space comedies.
