The Office attracts upscale viewers

Thursday, February 22nd, 2007 | 12 comments

From Variety:

Among adults 18-49 living in households earning $100,000 or more, ABC sets the pace with an index of 112 (meaning its audience is 12% more likely than the average adult under 50 to bring home the big bucks). NBC was close behind at 107 …

The top-indexing programs in the $100,000 category through January were NBC’s “The Office” (138), ABC’s “Boston Legal” (135), NBC’s “The Apprentice” (132) and rookie dramas “Brothers & Sisters” on ABC and “Studio 60″ on NBC (both 131).

Melora Hardin talks Office chemistry

Thursday, February 22nd, 2007 | 20 comments

SPOILER WARNING! Article and subsequent comments will contain spoilers.

The Boston Herald talks to Melora Hardin about Jan’s chemistry with Michael:

“She’s a very complicated, multilayered, conflicted and flawed woman who’s been fighting really hard in a man’s world for a really long time,” she said. “She’s gotten a really crusty, cold, hard exterior. But she has a soft, gooey center, and Michael sees that and he goes right into that and she responds to that.”

Wow, Melora’s dad was “Deep Throat” on The X-Files! — one of my favorite TV shows of all time.

More on Kate and the bat

Kate Flannery was nice enough to answer a few questions about working with a bat during last week’s ‘Business School’ episode:

OT: I assume you were acting with an animatronic bat during the garbage bag scene. What was that like? Was it being remote-controlled off-camera? Or was Rainn operating the bat? Or was it fancy editing, and nothing was actually IN the garbage bag?

Kate: We went from real bat (which we had to be extremely quiet around! basically pretending to scream!) to animatron bat — operated by a guy who was literally on my ass with a stick attached to the bat — to a motorized bat to just the bag. It was pretty wild.
