Fans of NBC's The Office are itching to find out who will replace departing star Steve Carell. But for the time being, even NBC doesn’t know. While the network will not decide until after the end of season 7, a plan is in place to put the spotlight on other characters in different episodes, highlighting such favorites as Andy (played by Ed Helms), Jim and Pam (John Krasinski and Jenna Fischer) and Darryl (Craig Robinson).
