B.J. in The Improper Bostonian

stepliana over at the LiveJournal Office community has transcribed The Improper Bostonian’s interview with B.J. Novak.

An excerpt:

IB: Most excruciating moment on the show that you had to act?
BJN: One time I had to look mildly surprised when I was actually moderately surprised. That was a pretty big stretch.

IB: Well, we all know how expressive you are with your eyes from that appearance on Leno. You had Helen Mirren wetting herself.
BJN: Yes, I think it’s clear who the better actor is. She gets all the roles that I turn down.

IB: So you were asked to play the queen?
BJN: Yeah, I turned it down, and now that she has all those nominations I’m kicking myself.

    Oh my god. I giggled the whole way through. I think he has the sharpest, quickest wit of anyone in the cast. He always gives the best interviews.

    How crazy is it that JK and BJ went to High School together? I’d love to see THAT yearbook! haha

    I saw a man reading this on the T today and got really excited. I whipped out my cell phone to take a picture of it before I realized how weird that was and decided against it. Oh, BJ. :)
