NBC picked up “The Office” and “30 Rock” for another season! All together now: yaaaaaaaay. It’s a little disconcerting that both shows didn’t get renewed for longer terms (2-3 years maybe?) buuut we can worry about that next year, I suppose. And “Mad Men” creator Matthew Weiner has actually signed on for TWO more seasons…
