'Office' creator gets NBC animation deal
Greg Daniels, the very talented guy behind "The Office" and "Parks & Rec," has yet another deal with NBC -- this time to an animation series (and apparently much else).
“I couldn’t be more thrilled about this deal to work with Bob Greenblatt and his great new team,” said Daniels. “My producing partner, Howard Klein, who successfully hid my recent devastating stroke during negotiations, is helping me learn to read and feed myself again, and I should be able to get dressed and sit in the sun before the two years are up. I have already produced a big piece of construction paper with blue scribbles on it, which might be a treatment for a reality show. I think Bob’s going to like it a lot.”
