Steve Carell Returns to TV Comedy with The Office Producers; Extreme Makeover: Home Edition Coming to HGTV

A sort of reunion of The Office? Steve Carell, and producers Greg Daniels and Howard Klein will reunite for the Netflix original comedy series Space Force. Workplace comedy centered around the people tasked with creating a sixth branch of the armed services... Space Force. Steve Carell, who co-created the series, will star and executive produce Greg Daniels (The Office (U.S.), King of the Hill, Parks and Recreation), is the co-creator of the series and will serve as showrunner and executive producer. Howard Klein/3Arts (The Office (U.S.), The Mindy Project, Parks and Recreation) will also serve as executive producer. More info is still yet to come, such as how many episodes and when we can expect this comedy to premiere.
Television's highest-rated home renovation series of all time - Extreme Makeover: Home Edition - is coming to HGTV, with the network planning to produce 10 fresh episodes. While it has not yet revealed the cast for the new episodes, HGTV will showcase its own superstar experts in the weekly race to complete a custom, whole home renovation for one deserving family. The new episodes are expected to premiere in early 2020. HGTV also secured the rights to air 100 existing episodes of the original series that ran on The ABC Television Network for nine successful seasons from 2003-2012. At its peak during the 2004-05 season, Extreme Makeover: Home Edition averaged nearly 16 million viewers on Sunday nights. Extreme Makeover: Home Edition will be available on demand across all authenticated platforms and on the HGTV app.
The HGTV episodes of Extreme Makeover: Home Edition will be produced by Endemol Shine North America with Sharon Levy and DJ Nurre serving as executive producers. The company also produced the original version of Extreme Makeover: Home Edition for ABC.
