The Office on a Tuesday? Say what?
Yes, Diwali is scheduled to air at 10:30pm tonight, after the State of the Union Address.
Not sure what this means for us non-East Coasters, though … nope, this isn’t showing up on the West Coast schedule. Oh snap!
Update: It is on the west coast! Right now! 9pm! (Thanks, Matt!)

Entertainment Tonight was on the Office set last week when the Screen Actors Guild’s JoBeth Williams presented Steve Carell with three SAG Award nomination certificates — two for “The Office” and one for “Little Miss Sunshine.”
(Warning: The first video has some audio problems for the first 15 seconds or so.)
Yeah, ensemble, baby!
The Screen Actors Guild awards show airs on TNT and TBS January 28th.

In The Office Season 3 episode The Return, Andy creates an a capella version of the song Rockin’ Robin to use as his ringtone.
The latest People magazine features a short article on Rashida Jones and a photo of B.J. Novak and Jenna Fischer from Golden Globes night.

Psycho Ass (Andy’s new title this week) was one Large Tuna of a catalyst for a long-awaited return in this week’s episode.
I’m not talking about the return of Oscar, back from “gaycation.” (Poor Kev — three agonizing months waiting to say that.)
And I’m not talking about the return of Dwight. OK, he was technically only gone 22 minutes. Still, it was enough for all of us to mourn his absence, including Jim. (“Thank you, Universe. You win.”)
I’m talking about JAM.
Because let’s face it peeps, this season has suffered a JAM drought …
