Tonight’s episode: Email Surveillance

A secret romance is finally revealed in tonight’s rerun episode, Email Surveillance.

I’ve updated the episode page to include more quotes, and links to Jenna’s and Angela’s blogs, which have some fun behind-the-scenes tidbits.

You should also check out the very funny deleted scene video clips. (Now Mac-friendly!)

P.S. If you’re interesting in how the Emmy voting process is changing this year, here’s a pretty detailed article about it.

Jenna reports DVD commentary is recorded

Jenna’s posted a new entry in her MySpace blog, and mentions that the cast spent last Saturday and yesterday recording DVD commentary for the Season 2 DVD. Jenna says the DVD will includes lots of extras, including deleted scenes and her very own home movies!

This is going to be sooo great.

Read her post here. Now if we could just get a release date …

John Krasinski live chat on Friday

This just in from OT reader Sam:

Hey, just wanted to let you know that John Krasinski will be participating in a live chat with office fans and emmy-predicting enthusiasts on the Goldderby Forum (an emmy discussion site) on Friday at 2 pm eastern. Lisa Kudrow and Lauren Graham have already participated. It’s free to register and join the site, though Tom O’Neil (the LA Times reporter who will be hosting the chat) mentioned that he may boot people from the chat who have very recently joined the site. He wants longtime goldderby participators to be able to chat with Krasinski. Anyway, just a heads up! Come chat with Jim!

Thanks, Sam, for the tip!

Cast blogs now linked to episode pages

I’ve now added links to episode-specific cast blogs on each episode page. For example, if you go to The Client and scroll down to the bottom of the page, you’ll see links to blogs by B.J., Jenna, and Angela related to this episode!

I’ve also created pages of links for the TV Guide blogs created by B.J. and Jenna — many of the blog entries were done in TVG’s old blog system in the “Insider” column, and can be a bit hard to find otherwise …

Happy reading!

Did they or didn’t they?

As has been so astutely pointed out by OT readers heidi and Jon, yesterday was the date of Pam and Roy’s wedding (as first mentioned in Booze Cruise).

Did they or didn’t they get married?

And did Jim go to Australia?

Are you feeling a little vaklempt? — talk amongst yourselves.

Various tidbits

Happy Saturday, everybody!

Here are a few little Office tidbits:

  • NBC has announced that Christmas Party and The Injury will air on June 29. (I’ve added these to the calendar.)
  • GMMR has posted over at the LiveJournal Office community that various members of the cast are recording commentary today for the Season 2 DVD!
  • In the June 9th TV Guide podcast, all three TV panelists place Casino Night in their top three finales of the entire season. And yes, that even includes Michael Ausiello, who isn’t that big a fan of the show! Listen for it around minute 16.
