Chicago Tribune reviews ‘A Benihana Christmas’

Our friend Maureen Ryan at the Chicago Tribune has posted a hilarious review of this week’s episode, ‘A Benihana Christmas.’

SPOILER WARNING! Normally, I would include a few excerpts here, but Mo’s review is so chockful of delicious quotes from the episode, that I must abstain.

Just go read On Comet, on Cupid! On Dunder! On Mifflin! And to all a good night.

The OT quote randomizer is gonna be really happy this week … :)

Jenna Fischer in ALIVE Magazine

Monday, December 11th, 2006 | 31 comments

Check out an interview (and stunning photos!) of Jenna from the December issue of ALIVE Magazine in St. Louis, Jenna’s hometown.

Some excerpts:

KH: Do they ever have to do multiple takes because you’re cracking up at a funny scene?

JF: I laugh a lot—and I mess up the most takes either by laughing or sneezing. The editor was putting together the DVD and said he wants to insert a track just with all the takes I’ve messed up from sneezing because I have bad allergies. I have allergy pills hidden all over the place—in my bedroom, in my purse, in my trailer. [Ironically, cats are one of the things she’s allergic to.]

KH: Maybe Pam should just have allergies!

JF: I know, they should just write that in next season. But sometimes we’ll be taking a scene and I’ll be holding in a sneeze and my eyes start watering and they’ll be like, “We can’t use that either; it looks like Pam’s crying!”
