‘The Office’ at Comic-Con 2008

Friday, July 25th, 2008 | 82 comments

The OfficeA reminder of Saturday’s Comic-Con San Diego events:

Saturday, July 26th, 12:45-1:45
Exclusive Q&A with the writers of The Office

The writers of the Emmy award–winning comedy The Office talk about their favorite episodes, characters, and fun behind-the-scenes stories. Panelists: executive producer/showrunner Greg Daniels and writers Jennifer Celotta, Michael Schur, B.J. Novak, Lester Lewis, Gene Stupnitsky, Lee Eisenberg, Mindy Kaling, Justin Spitzer, Ryan Koh, and Anthony Ferrell. Moderator: Rainn Wilson.

If this is anything like the writers panel from The Office Convention in Scranton last fall, I bet they’ll show some entertaining video clips as well …

Can’t be there in person? No worries, this panel will be recorded and available at NBC.com!

Special merchandise: the NBC Universal Store will be setting up shop to sell a limited edition BBBG bobblehead and matching t-shirt! Visit NBCU’s booth at #3919.

Dwight Schrute bobblehead giveaway: NBCU Digital Distribution and MobiTV will offer Comic-Con attendees the chance to win 25 limited edition Dwight Schrute bobbleheads. Street teams dressed like NBC Pages will distribute posters on both Friday and Saturday during the convention with details on how to enter.

Rainn Wilson appearance: while not a Comic-Con event, a reminder that Rainn Wilson will appear at a Q&A session after a screening of ‘The Rocker’ on Saturday night. More details

Lastly: Matt Collins (OTCR moderator) and I will be at the writers panel. If you see us, please come by and say hello! (Matt’s the tall one who likes to dance.)

    Since Lost started, it’s been my dream to go to ComicCon. It would be amazing if The Office was there this year!

    An Office comic book would be the best thing in the history of anything ever.

    Wish it wasn’t on the other side of the country. How else am I going to get my nerdy and Office related needs met? Boo.


  3. 20. MaNerds  

    YES! I just convinced my friend to go, so we bought our passes last week. This is icing on the cake!


  4. 19. Anthony  

    Awesome! I’ve attended a few comic cons including last year and let me tell you its a blast. Having The Office there is just a bonus!


  5. 18. Heather Z  

    Yeah! So happy this is happening in my backyard! I’m never sure if I want to deal with the Comic-Con crowd, but this would be totally worth it.

    okay, TOTALLY going now. i’m living in downtown san diego until the end of july so me and the fiance will definitely be taking advantage of our extremely prime location of being a short walk away from the convention center to completely geek out =D


  7. 16. Jennifer Jones  

    Aw man…I want to go so badly, but I’m going to be in London for all of July!!


  8. 15. Jules  

    This would be so awesome and the best early birthday present if it ends up being true. I’ll definitely be in the group of those refreshing this page until confirmation. ;)


  9. 14. Post-it Thief  

    Holy cow, that’s awesome. Hope it’s true!


  10. 13. cbaquir  

    COMIC CON!!! I want that bobble head!


  11. 12. mg714  

    I think I may know where I’m taking my summer vacation now! Actually, if this does work out – sounds like it will be a lot of fun. I hope lots of Tallyheads can make it and report back!


  12. 11. Sticious  

    Absolutely, I will. I love the cheap Southwest Flights to anywhere in CA.

    Oh yeah, and the BBBG bobblehead looks amazing!


  13. 10. black cat  

    BBBG! I’d fly down from San Francisco just to get that new bobblehead! It’s the best thing I’ve seen in a long time. (I may need to get out more.)


  14. 9. GMMR  

    Tanster – I’m going to be refreshing this page every 5 minutes until I hear confirmation. So yeah, expect a lot more page views from me :)

    I was already so excited about going to Comic Con but the idea of an OFFICE panel is crazy.


  15. 8. littlekidlover  

    I live in New England and am low on cash…so I don’t think I’ll be attending. But I’m interested to hear more details about this!


  16. 7. Jennifer  

    I already have my tickets for ComiCon this year… this news makes me soooo happy =-)


  17. 6. lemoñadé  

    Office is going to be at Comic-Con? I really enjoyed their Paley Panel so I am so there. I have never been to Comic-Con. Do you have to buy a pass to the whole event or are there just Office tickets? Do these things sell out way in advance? Basically, I’m what I’m asking is do I need to buy the tickets right now?


  18. 5. Tiffany  

    I’m with you all the way phyllis*farm… We should bring our case to the Supreme Court.


  19. 4. Tori Weber  

    If I live in CA by then — I am there!


  20. 3. Lynzee  

    I have lived in San Diego all my life and have never attended Comic-Con. The possibility of seeing my favorite Dunder Mifflinites would be the ONLY way to pull me into that absolute madhouse that is Comic-Con. I am SO there!
