You guys were so excited to see the opening credits during last night’s episode, I asked NBC to put it online.
Doesn’t it just give you the warm fuzzies? :)
Thank you, NBC.com!

YAY! melovesit<3
Ryan is coming back later this season.
Are we to assume that Jan is completely gone and Ryan will come back someday? Seems weird with them both gone.
I’m sooo happy everyone is now a part of the opening credits….I hope they keep it!!!
Reading the comments so far, I wondered where the term “Italian food kiss” came from. I thought maybe it had some other derivation that was picked up on here. So I did a Google search on “italian food kiss” and lo and behold, the reference appears to be uniquely “The Office.” And the very top hit out of the 183 Google currently shows comes right back to this topic in OT. Pretty weird/funny/cool! Ask a question and find you’re already looking at the best answer there is. :-)
[from tanster: lol! that is funny!]
first, I love your power tanster
second, I get the opening credits now…how they added the rest of the cast (hurray!) I was totally caught off guard on Sunday night and it didn’t register until the Jim and Pam kiss and the end
Italian food kiss! I’m so excited about this intro!!
Thanks tanster and nbc.com!
I hate the new credits. Love the addition of the rest of the cast– but I hate that the “start” of the credits are so obviously different in quality and “look” to the latter half. I think they need to update the ENTIRE credits.
First off, whoa tanster! I’m impressed with how much of an insider you are now! It’s well deserved, though :)
And second, though I love when the entire ensemble gets credit for the amazing work they do (I even used to get a little ticked off sometimes with how they weren’t in the opening credits), is it weird that I kind of missed the old credits? I feel like I’m not an appreciative fan of the show when I say that, but I agree with #38. I like the season 1 video.
Tanster, I love that you can ask NBC to post things and they do it! You’re so powerful in The Office world!
I love this SO much.
I was watching with my husband and I got all excited over the new credits!! He was like “Ummmm, ok…” LOL! I thought the music sounded different too, the drums/bass line were more pronounced.
Just my .02 worth, I think they need a new shot of Ryan/BJ other than the one of him talking on the phone. I love the rest of the opening credits though!
Tanster, is this any longer than the normal credits?
So glad everyone is being recognized for their fantastic work…they all deserve their credits!
i like that the new credits give proper recognition to the whole cast, it really is an ensemble show, but i kind of agree with emily. i liked that they never changed the credits and everyone looked like their old school selves. i thought it was a way to set the show apart as a mockumentary versus a sitcom that updates its credits every season. that said, they could have the fandango puppets acting out the credits and i wouldn’t really care as long as the show stayed as awesome as it is.
BJ Novak has already said that Ryan will be back this season.
yeah i agree with carla.
it’s good that they’re all on there, now that they’ve all been having their own plots & stuff for a while… dunno why ryan’s still on there though. maybe he IS coming back ???
When I saw the opening credits I knew this episode would be awesome. Turns out I was right. I am sooo glad they had the Italian food kiss. It is my favorite. Yeah!!
This will not be an original or constructive comment in any way:
LOVE IT. Love it, love it, LOVE IT.
I’m guessing we won’t see this until there’s another 1-hour show… just a guess. More credits=less Office
