Ricky Gervais and Stephen Merchant, creators of
The Office, have a new series on the way called
Extras. In the best news I've heard today, HBO has decided to air it in the US.

Extras stars Ricky Gervais as bitter, aspiring actor Andy Millman, who gives up his day job to pursue fame in the movies, only to find he just can't land the big parts. Each episode will have a different setting and feature cameos by top Hollywood stars, including Samuel L. Jackson, Ben Stiller, Kate Winslet and Patrick Stewart. The cast will also feature Stephen Merchant as Millman's agent.

Thank you, HBO. Perhaps I won't cancel immediately after the end of
Deadwood.
