Steve Carell to Write and Produce New NBC Sitcom

He may be bowing out of The Office at the end of this season, but Steve Carell’s relationship with NBC will live on.

The network has picked up The Post-Graduate Project, which Carell will write and produce. The show is based on his early career as a mail carrier in Littleton, Mass., and it centers around a small-town post office and the “quirky but tight-knit group of local twentysomethings” who frequent it.

It’s unclear whether Carell will also act in the half-hour, single camera comedy. Either way, expect a bunch of “post-Office post office” puns in the near future.
