The Office Spinoff The Paper Premieres September 4; Upload Season 4 Returns August 25

Finally some good news. The Paper arrives September 4 on Peacock. The documentary crew that immortalized Dunder Mifflin's Scranton branch in the Emmy Award-winning series The Office find a new subject when they discover a historic Midwestern newspaper and the publisher trying to revive it. The Paper premieres with four episodes on September 4, followed by two new episodes every Thursday through September 25.
Greg Daniels (The Office) produces under his banner Deedle-Dee Productions, and Michael Koman (Nathan for You). Executive Producers: Ricky Gervais, Stephen Merchant, Howard Klein, Ben Silverman and Banijay Americas (formerly Reveille).
Series Regulars: Domhnall Gleeson (Ex Machina, About Time), Sabrina Impacciatore (The White Lotus), Chelsea Frei (Poker Face, The Cleaning Lady), Melvin Gregg (American Vandal, Snowfall), Gbemisola Ikumelo (Black Ops, A League of Their Own), Alex Edelman (Just for Us, Unfrosted), Ramona Young (Never Have I Ever, Santa Clarita Diet), Tim Key (The Witchfinder, This Time with Alan Partridge), and Oscar Nuñez (The Office, The Proposal).

Prime Video announced that Season Four of the sci-fi comedy series Upload will premiere on Monday, August 25 on Prime Video. First-look official images out now. The fourth season will consist of four episodes premiering exclusively on Prime Video in more than 240 countries and territories around the world. Upload is a sci-fi comedy series from Emmy-winning writer Greg Daniels (The Office, Parks and Recreation, King of the Hill), set in a technologically advanced future where holographic phones, self-driving vehicles, AI assistance, and 3D food printers are the norm. And, forget about dying - instead, you'll be "uploaded" to a virtual reality afterlife, and enjoy all the comforts of a world-class resort. Provided you can afford it.
In the four-part series finale event, sentient AI rapidly turns evil, threatening to wipe out Lakeview (and the world!). On top of greedy executives, lingering mysteries, plus heartbreak in VR and IRL, our characters are tested like never before. The only way they can get through it all and save humanity from deletion is by teaming up one last time. The series was created by Greg Daniels, who also serves as executive producer along with Howard Klein and Maxwell Vivian. Series stars: Robbie Amell as Nathan, Andy Allo as Nora, Kevin Bigley as Luke, Allegra Edwards as Ingrid, Zainab Johnson as Aleesha, and Owen Daniels as A.I. Guy.
