The Office set visit, 2008

Sunday, April 20th, 2008
The Office

I am rather flabbergasted over the sheer quantity of food that is available all day. This is just one segment of a kitchen counter that is covered in snacks …

The Office

… the counter continues here, and keeps going …

The Office

Besides a fully catered gourmet lunch, there are two hot snacks served each day, one in the morning and one in the afternoon. Here, Vartan serves a chicken tortilla soup, along with croissant sandwiches and various other snacks. Jen sneaks into the photo at the last second! (You can also see Kate in the snack room.)

The mid-morning snack was burritos, and turkey chili with all the fixings. Lunch included fish, vegetables, totally yummy grilled steak and sausages, onion rings, pasta, and salad. Really an obscene amount of food.

But the best kept secret I learned? Where they keep the hidden stash of Tejava! Because it’s not in the regular fridge or cooler with all the other regular drinks! (Thank you, Mr. M.) You guys, please don’t ask me, because that is a secret I will guard with my life. Confidentiality agreement or not.

  1. It is so amazing that you were able to do this! It’s my dream to do this one day! It seems like such a mind-boggling experience! How exactly were you able to visit the set?

  2. OMGosh! I want a prom photo! This is an awsome web site, just barely found it, (I am very careful with fan web sites, sometimes they are.. mmhh.. weird)It’s soooo awesome, I wanna be you in that pic! Maybe I can photo shop myself in it! (kidding):)

  3. Hi Tanster,

    Just wondering since the Season Finale has now aired are you still bound by that confidentiality agreement? If not, can you share if you were privy to any spoilers when you were on set? Did you know Andy and Angela were the ones getting engaged? Did you know Jim and Pam didn’t get engaged? Just wondering how much you had to keep confidential. Thanks!

  4. A TIE fighter and a X-Wing and a Y-Wing?!?!?! How did Ed Helms do that?? For a life-long Star Wars fan, that is pretty freakin’ awesome.

  5. Two of my favorite websites crossed paths today!!!

    Saw this at Fazed.net thinking it might be something I hadn’t seen before:

    COOL
    The Office - Set Visit

    Fans of the show will probably appreciate the gratuitous photos of the set.

    I clicked the link and was pumped up to see the link of Tanster’s set visit!

    Sorry, I had to share my little moment of The Office geekdom!

  6. I have to say, I’m freaking jealous of Tanster and her Prom portrait with John! and those pictures of him are squeeeeeeeeeeelightful

    JEN LOOKS GORGEOUS! is it me or does she look skinnier with your camera than on tv?
    I love all the crew pictures and the set
    aaaaaand the snack counter! wow. i hope everyone washes their hands before going in there :P

    wow an angela stuntwoman. where there others? like for kate or paul?

  7. OMGOSH ed helm’s star wars models! AWESOME

    HAHAH i looooooooooooove how everyone’s desks has something work related to it, papers and etc
    but michael’s desk does NOT — void of any work progress

    great attention to detail
    great environment!
    thanks, tanster! I really enjoyed this tour :)

  8. These are all amazing and hilarious :)
    The prom picture is beyond ridiculous! I love it.
    and Tan Monster is definitely your new name. You should enforce its use.

  9. Thanks for sharing all the photos and deets (lol my michael impression of “details”) of your visit to our favourite place in Scranton “Tan Monster”! I loved the pic of you and John, it made me want to squee. :)I’m glad you had fun and I hope you get to go again soon!

  10. who’s in the photo next to Dwight’s bobblehead of the Nittany Lion?

  11. Hi Jennie! What a lucky girl you are!!! I haven’t been able to get on my computer for a week. My internet service is sending me a new modem. {I don’t know much about computers}I tried for an hour today before I got on, I hope that when I get the new modem it will fix the problem. Also I can get DSL in June I think. It is nice to live in the country but it takes a while for things to get here. I am so very happy for you that you got to meet everyone, tomorrow is Thursday!!! I tried to look up all your pictures but can’t bring the pages up. Thank you again for a wonderful fan site.

  12. I just had the chance to read this and I loved every detail. The prom pose is my favorite picture. Thanks so much for posting this!

    BTW, how cute is Jen Celotta??

  13. wow. i am so jealous of you tanster!

    that photo with u and John had me in a puddle. ok that’s enough squeeing for now. :)

  14. Did anyone else notice how the photos with Pam don’t show the left hand? Casual shot or careful posing?

  15. Congrats on your awesome set visit, Tanster! You totally deserve it, and I hope you get to enjoy more set visits in the future!

    Loved the prom pic, by the way ;D

  16. Guess Jan isn’t in the finale :( .

  17. Thanks for such a great report! Just finished looking it all over in between takes on set. I was happy to show you around, you are too sweet. Glad you had fun…we liked having you. You are a-w-e-s-o-m-e- too lady.

  18. If the “Prom Photo” makes me smile and laugh, i can only imagine what it does for you!! lucky girl!

  19. Tanster, how awesome!! I’m so happy you got so many behind-the-scenes shots; that part of shows/movies has always been more interesting to me! My *favorite* was Creed’s plaque for surviving the 60s…that’s hilarious! Oh and your prom pic with John, hehehe!

  20. Thanks so much for sharing this fantastic experience with us, Tanster! I think I speak for all Tallyheads when I say that you completely deserve all the rewards in the world for the work you put into this site. I’m so happy that the Office cast and crew agrees! I hope they continue to invite you the set — no one deserves it more than you!
