The Office: Pam and Jim's baby will be born into the world of The Office on Thursday, March 4. (That's the first new ep after the Olympics, FYI.) And in anticipation of this momentous event, NBC has released some brand-new Jam-centric promos. The one posted above is funny, and this one might make you cry a little.

Plus, more TV news, including a rare case of a show runner actually confirming that their de facto-canceled show really is done for...

The Vampire Diaries: Hottie Stephen Martines (the snarktastic L.A. Times reporter on The Closer) has joined the cast of The Vampire Diaries as Frederick, one of the vamps from the tomb.

Gossip Girl: Josh Schwartz handed his Twitter over to fellow Gossip Girl exec producer Stephanie Savage, and she revealed that there's a lot for fans to love about the upcoming Chuck-Blair storyline: "SS: 'They are in stories together every episode for the rest of the season.' It's the most emotional stories they have done." Awww...

Numb3rs: In case there was any doubt at all that Numb3rs was done at the end of this season, show runner Cheryl Heuton has tweeted that the Hollywood Reporter's estimated 20 percent chance of survival for the show is probably "too high," and that "Now that I have some free time, going to do stuff I've been putting off. Like driving 60 miles to find a tiny fish store in Newport Beach...And--putting in an above-ground vegetable garden." Goodbye, Numb3rs. We always liked your family values, even if we didn't understand the math.

Are you starting to feel better about the upcoming CB drama on Gossip Girl? And how excited are we all about that Jam baby?!!
