Netscape on The Office set
Monday, October 23rd, 2006 | 27 commentsIn this hilarious video, watch Brian, Angela, and Oscar goof off around the Office set, and listen to other Dunder Mifflinites attempt to explain what Netscape is.
Stanley, Kelly, Phyllis, Meredith, Pam, and Creed all get in to the act.
Andy’s answer should really be the Netscape’s tagline, don’t you think?
Watch Netscape on the set of The Office here. (Thanks, Ryan!)

In celebration of Mr. Krasinski’s birthday, check out this deleted scene from “Sexual Harassment,” where he exudes that irresistible Halpert charm.
Thanks to GMMR, JK’s biggest flan, for leading me to this clip! (Which I am embarrassed to say, I had never seen. Yes, I own the DVD and I had never seen this clip. I hang my head in shame.)
