The Office set visit, 2008

Sunday, April 20th, 2008 | 254 comments

After I left Kim, I bumped into The Office’s showrunner Greg Daniels, and we chatted briefly about the finale and a little bit about a new set of webisodes that are now being filmed!

I then walked upstairs where the writers and the producers have their offices.

Hey Adam! I walked by Greg Daniels’ office and he has your parking sign (the one Adam presented to Greg at The Office Convention in Scranton) proudly displayed on his wall! I was so excited to see it. I would have taken a photo of it but Greg was not around and I felt funny to take a photo without permission. But just know that it’s definitely up in Greg’s office. :)

It was the end of the day and the last person I talked to was Kent Zbornak. I hadn’t seen him all day and I caught him up on what I saw and who I talked to. He then walked me out, gave me a huge hug, and very kindly had one of his staff drive me to the airport! Thanks, Kent, for all your help and support!

The Office


Well thanks for tuning in, everyone! I had an absolutely amazing day. I never take for granted the amazing opportunities I’ve had to get to know the cast, staff, and crew of my favorite show in the world. Thank you. From the bottom of my heart.

    Hey, is that Gerry McNamara next to Dwight’s bobblehead? …popular SU player from Scranton. :D


  2. 253. Guy  

    Very cool!


  3. 252. Angela  

    I think it’s funny that the typing test in that photo of Jenna’s desk is the same one I used to get the job I’m at. hahaha.. I guess I really AM the incarnate Pam Beesley.

    That is SO cool!! and a good read. =) you made 21 pages not boring. the pictures helped as well.

    speaking of which, John and the prom thing?! insane! putting his arms around you, not only unagainst his will but his own doing. nice.

    [from tanster: thanks so much, cait! yes, it was totally insane. ;) ]

    How did you get to visit the set of the office? That’s an amazing opportunity, a dream of mine. haha


  6. 249. Dwightfan  

    You are very lucky, i bet it was fun to meet Steve and Jenna. And you got to meet Dwight you are so lucky.


  7. 248. Jaci  

    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?


  8. 247. Mimi  

    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):)

    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!

    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.

    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!


  12. 243. Janie  

    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?


  13. 242. Janie  

    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 :)


  14. 241. MaddieMagnus  

    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.


  15. 240. Awesome Blossom  

    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!

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


  17. 238. Helen  

    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.


  18. 237. Parnold Schporzenegger  

    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??


  19. 236. cousin mufasa  

    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. :)

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