What’s your favorite part of The Office set?

I am going to be filmed tomorrow giving a tour of The Office set!

(Yes, I am super crazy excited.)

I want to make sure I hit all the good stuff, so that’s where I need your help:

What is your favorite part of The Office set and why?

UPDATE Thu Jan 19, 7pm PT: I’m moderating Pool Party comments while waiting for my flight out of Bob Hope Airport (a blogger’s job is never done!). Yep, flew in this morning, and flying back home tonight. Full day on The Office set, but a little bit different from my past set visits in that 1) most of the morning was spent being interviewed by Reveille, 2) the time I got to spend watching scenes being filmed was not on the main set, but in a crowded hallway, and 3) most of the cast was off today. Still, I love coming here! Got to stand about 10 feet away watching some groundbreaking Jim/Dwight interaction being shot, and learned some interesting stuff about upcoming episodes and guest stars. And tried to take as many pictures as I could, based on your requests! Hope to post more this weekend. :)

   They mention in a commentary that the drawers below the windows of the conference room have gum inside them. But this was years ago. Check if they’re still there.

   Are you going to post a video and pictures of your set visit?

   It would be cool to see where all the doors really lead to, and or any other reality continuity issues. Like if certain things aren’t as close as they appear to be.

   I’d love to see PA related items. I thought I saw of picture of Penn State Old Main once, and I think I spotted a Sheetz magnet on the refrigerator.

   The warehouse, Dwight’s gym for muscles? Or…the famous bailer?

   Anything dealing with Creed’s desk, or what is behind the Vance Refrigeration door. Enjoy the tour! :)

    Toby’s desk! I want to know more about how this guy thinks! And more about why his life is so pitiful.

    Show us in detail what is on Jim, Pam and Dwight’s desks

    I’ve always wanted to know where the door in the corner behind Stanley goes to, as well as the “EXIT” doors.

    Lucky you, Tanster! I like idea #1 and also the white boards and certificates and things on the walls that might have inside jokes or other nonsense written on them. Have fun!

    Tanster! So awesome you get to visit the set. Please get a picture of the break room fridge. I’m always intrigued when I get a small glimpse of the contents. Have fun!

    The accounting area, specifically the things on the window between Kevin and Angela’s desk.

    26. Emily  Wed. Jan. 18, 2012 | 8:17pm

    I love the calendars posted on the wall! Forgive me if I’m wrong about the location, but I think there’s one between Meredith and the accountants. I’d just love to know all the events and (hopefully) jokes written on it!!

    You guys are super awesome, thanks for all the ideas. :)

    I’m going to be at the set for the day, so I’ll do the best that I can! Two props I really want to see in person — the boxing cat puppet and the Pyramid tablet!

    If there are any props you want to see, please post those ideas, too!

    Try to get pictures and video of the parts of the office that we never see. Places like the door that Jim and Pam came out of at the end of the episode Valentine’s Day, and hallways that we never see. Other parts of the studio, parts that are behind-the-scenes would be cool too.

    I would also love to see the different pictures on the desks, and what’s behind Erin’s desk.

    Erin’s desk from what Erin can see. (I kept trying to call it Pam’s desk! I watch too many re-runs.)
