   In the first video, on the mockumentary format, they have the camera focused almost the whole time on two separate interviewees while addressing only one of them. Pun intended?

   Thank you for posting this, I love hearing from the producers and writers of the show because I’m so interested in that field of work. And it did help that my second favorite show is House ;)

   I was surprised in the second video how little they understood spoilers! The main reason I watch spoilers (like for The Office) is so I won’t miss it when it happens the real first time. There is usually so much going on that if you are watching the show for the first time when it originally airs, you are behind a large part of the fans in terms of episodic knowledge.
