On Emmy night, my dedication to The Office only solidified. Being lucky enough to be in the stands during the Red Carpet entrances, I got the attention of both Angela and Phyllis, who smiled and waved at me. Afterwards at the ET/People entrance, both Kate and Melora came over to where I was standing (beyond the security partition) to shake my hand and talk about their evenings. Craig said hello to my group as he was driving by to enter and waved at all of us and fleeced it out before going into the theatre. I got a chance to congratulate Rainn on his nomination who then reminded me that he didn’t win. Still. Best. Night. Ever.

I converted many to The Office when they realized that the stars weren’t too good to talk to their fans.

The Office is always number one in the hearts of flans (sounds a tad like a salada.) Congratulations to Greg and the writing team and the fabulous editors.

As a West Coasters, I sat in TOC while the East Coasters did a play by play. We were all so disappointed for you all, with the exception of one win. :-) Keep your heads up. There is always next year. Congrats on the nomination!!!

Like everyone I couldn’t agree more with the sentiment of this message. As I watch that infamous final clip from the Job, I can’t help but remember back to when that episode first premiered and what an effect it had on me. I was sitting around with my boyfriend’s family watching in anticipation. I remember when the door opened and it was Jim, my eyes immediately welled up with tears and from that point on I just lost it. I was crying and yelling and just plain freaking out, and I don’t know if I’ve ever cried at a tv moment like that before. It has such a profound impact, it’s awesome!

Even though I’m quite disappointed with the lack of Office Emmy wins, I gotta say, having fans willing to parade around all day proudly wearing an Office t-shirt as her friends all ridicule her mercilessly has gotta count for something.

Word. I love everything about this show to death and Greg winning was the best part of my week.

The cast and crew of The Office are winners because they have such a great show to work on and we just benefit from that. I can’t tell you how many people I’ve converted into fans by quoting Michael and Dwight. The writing is just so REAL!!

On every entertainment site I’ve visited today, the Office cast’s antics (along with Jon’s and Stephen’s) are mentioned as the only highlights of the night. Winners either aren’t mentioned, or just are as an afterthought. I think that says it all!

Even though they didn’t win they were all amazing, even though none of them said anything besides Rainn and Steve. I really hope Jenna gets nominated again next year and same with John.

As much as I’m still angry about NBC not being on iTunes anymore, I still have to respect how NBC sticks with their shows they have faith in. Very respectable.

The Office has started to pull away from the BBC version, and it’s getting more respect. Now that Jam is together, there can be nothing but an Office sweep next year.

But, I’m sorry Rainn, I can understand why Jeremy got it over you, but, yes, you are still amazing too.

But, Jenna got robbed: No Question.

The Office basically ruled the Emmy’s. Obviously they think that the show does something right, Steve and Rainn were the main attractions. I was so upset that Jenna didn’t win, she really deserved it..being likeable, realistic and funny is a hard thing to pull off. For Greg Daniels to win for writing is a big deal though, so congrats to him! For 30 Rock to win is the best alternative to The Office in my opinion, and Ricky Gervais’ win is also who my “second best” would have been. It’s sad that Steve didn’t win, but the Daily Show reunion with Stephen and John was priceless!

I second that, a Dundie is A LOT more important than an Emmy!!!

And there are the Golden Globes still, right?

I’m just glad an NBC show won best comedy, and not Ugly Betty. The Office will get it next year!!!!! I don’t think My Name is Earl will last much longer, so Jenna could get it next year as well.

I have to agree with ChillisBannedMe. A Dundie is soooo much better then an Emmy!!!

I just had to comment again….

I really hope that someone has alerted the cast and crew to come here and read all these notes…. i have to agree with the earlier comment about how this show has created such a great community of people. When a show can bring people together like this who needs an award? I mean other than a Dundie… which is far more valuable than an Emmy. :)

I just have to say I’m looking forward to 30 episodes of Office goodness in season 4 and I’m really grateful this wonderful show was given a chance to find its audience. That is pretty rare on network tv. Let’s be thankful NBC didn’t pull the plug–it’s the little show that could!

Office sweep in 2008!!!

You all won in my heart. You all looked all glammed out last night. I’m just happy that The Office was recognized for their great achievements.

Amen! The Office is still the best show with the best fans!
