‘The Office’ Actor Refunds $110K in Kickstarter Donations for Stalled Spinoff Series

Leslie David Baker raised over $336K on Kickstarter for a Stanley spinoff called Uncle Stan.
Production delays due to COVID-19 and industry strikes led to criticism from backers.
Baker cited lockdowns and strikes as reasons he has yet to fulfill Kickstarter rewards and start filming.
A large portion of pledges were lowered or dropped, so Baker is returning $110,629.81 to backers.
Once strikes are resolved, Baker still intends to make Uncle Stan and fulfill Kickstarter perks.
