Hey There Pam

Friday, June 27th, 2008 | 48 comments

Happy Friday, y’all! I thought this was the cutest thing ever.

William says: “It’s a parody song video I made to “Hey There Delilah”, it’s called “Hey There Pam.” I confess my love to her in this song haha. This song is very tongue in cheek and has a lot of references to The Office that I think fans could relate to. I even act at the end spoofing the talking head. :)”

Check out more of William’s music on his MySpace page.

Steve Carell to stay three more years at ‘The Office’

Thursday, June 26th, 2008 | 49 comments

Steve Carell has signed on to play The Office’s Michael Scott for at least three more seasons.

This was mentioned by the Winnipeg Sun last week:

Steve Carell, who portrays the inept regional manager on NBC’s hugely popular The Office, says he’ll be with the Emmy-winning comedy for at least another three seasons despite his burgeoning big-screen career.

“All of the main cast are signed for three more. Beyond that, I have no idea.”

Ricky Gervais confirmed the news in his ‘This Side of Truth’ blog yesterday:

Had some great news today about the American version of The Office.

Steve Carell (now one of the most bankable film stars in the world) has just signed up for another three years with us.

Happy Birthday, Miz Angela!

Season 4 brought significant changes to our fair accountant — she lost her cat, lost her soulmate, and then lost her freaking mind when she said yes to Andy! And judging by the final moments of the season, the sparks will continue to fly in the fall.

Happy Birthday to one of our favorite leading ladies (and The Office’s best new mommy), Angela Kinsey!

Happy Birthday, Mindy!

Mindy Kaling’s skillful writing took the show to new levels in Season 4 — Jim facing an ex, Michael facing a copier, and Ryan facing a cocaine addiction.

She also penned one of the funniest episode Q&As ever.

Happy Birthday, Mindy!

(And here is a little tribute to the awesomeness that is Kelly Kapoor.) More »

My favorite ‘Say What?’ entries

Saturday, June 21st, 2008 | 26 comments

Here are my favorite entries from OfficeTally’s ‘Say What?’ Contest. (The one above is my own little entry; I just couldn’t resist.)

I reworded some entries so that they would either fit in the bubbles better (the bubbles are super small) or because I wanted to take it in a slightly different direction. But the credit is all yours …

Congratulations to Alison for the prize winning entry!

Thanks for playing ‘Say What?’ — we will definitely be doing this again. Sometime soon!

Thanks, you guys!

Thank you for all the sweet birthday wishes!

As we are currently experiencing a heatwave in the SF Bay Area (it’s supposed to hit 93º today) and my condo has no A/C, I will be spending the day in a nice air conditioned mall or cafe. With wifi, of course.

Thanks again. You guys are the best!
