Exactly 22 years ago, director Judd Apatow ('This is 40,' 'Knocked Up') wrote a script for 'The Simpsons' that was never used (which is not surprising since, at the time, Apatow had no credits and was still a struggling comedian).

And what does it mean for the fate of 'Parks and Recreation?'

Stars of 'The Office,' it is officially time to abandon ship.
