How many times have I watched this video? Too many. Kick-ass synchronization by seat18b.

Here’s a nice meaty interview with The Office’s Executive Producer Greg Daniels and writer/actor Mindy Kaling with NPR’s Terry Gross. The interview was conducted during the same week as the airing of ‘Diwali’ back in November 2006.

The TV Guide Channel did one of the few (if not, only) behind-the-scenes videos in which cast members are interviewed in character. Funny stuff!

Here’s an oldie but goodie — Boaz Frankel’s interview with Jenna, John, B.J., and Rainn, filmed, I believe, sometime before the Season 2 premiere. Yes, before Season Two. John and Rainn are hilarious!

First up, here’s a Kodak commercial from years back. I loved this commercial when it first came out, and now I love it even more because of its Office connection … :)




That movie always makes my day. I love the way it’s edited!
88 | iHaveA_Dundie Wed. Aug. 15, 2007 at 11:02amThat Hot in Herre video is one of the greatest pieces of fanart created! Seriously, I too have watched it so many times I’ve lost count. And just watched it again. And will again after posting this comment.
Thanks, seat18b!
87 | nemme Tue. Aug. 14, 2007 at 8:53pmBahhhhhhh!!!! I LOVE this so so so much!!!!!!
86 | Emily Tue. Aug. 14, 2007 at 3:41pmGotta say, for some reason, even though there is not any gags or comedy moments in that fanvid, it is the best one out there.
85 | the zoppity Tue. Aug. 14, 2007 at 1:05pmSeat 18b is a goddess.
Just sayin’. ;)
84 | Kismet Tue. Aug. 14, 2007 at 12:40pmI love “It’s Getting Hot in Here” - brilliant timing and editing. When I’m down, it lifts me up…on the dance flo’. I can’t believe there are so many relevant clips to the lyrics.
83 | Impressionist Tue. Aug. 14, 2007 at 12:08pmNo, that’s not pathetic. I was bummed too.
82 | tanster Sat. Aug. 4, 2007 at 12:32pmis it pathetic that i actually found that a little bit heartbreaking?
81 | nv Sat. Aug. 4, 2007 at 11:59amIf Steve Carell was really playing that guy, he would NOT have lost. Shows what a good actor Steve is. He can make losing seem realistic, when in reality he is invincible. ;) LOVE. STEVE.
80 | The Office Fanatic Sat. Aug. 4, 2007 at 8:53am75, i thought the exact same thing! paul looked so cute and funny when he said that.
The writing the office clip is the first rewind i hadn’t experienced “the first time around” and it’s pretty cool, i have to say that. this summer, i’m really starting to love the writers more and more and more.

76 | Stacy Wed. Jul. 18, 2007 at 4:51pmToby/Paul is so cute in that clip. The way he says, “It was so creepy” cracks me up. *giggle*
75 | The Office Fanatic Wed. Jul. 18, 2007 at 4:27pmdoes the paley fest clip work for people with macs?? (or am i just technologically-challenged)
74 | mk Wed. Jul. 18, 2007 at 3:52pmThat was awesome!! I loved that Steve kissed Oscar. Again. I was laughing so hard!!
“And Steve just wouldn’t let Oscar turn.” hee hee.
73 | Rosa Wed. Jul. 18, 2007 at 3:06pmKeep it coming tanster, these rewinds are perfect for someone like me who is still a newbie to the office.
