I flew down this morning, took a taxi straight to the studio, stayed there for nearly 12 hours, and then flew back late tonight. I’m exhausted, but had a wonderful time and will post more photos and non-spoilerish reports this weekend.
Here is an appeteaser photo:
Love you Party Planning Ladies!
Hot lady alert!
Ah, amazing!
You are awesome.
Ah so lucky!! But you totally deserve it. I can’t wait to read about it later. ^_^
lol 2 said “ah” too.
I’m excited to see more.
That’s what she said.
Wow. Just… Wow. There are no words. :-)
Can’t wait to read your reports!
I’m sure your day was absolutely fantastic! I can’t wait to hear all the details!
i am so excited to hear the rest of the story!
I’m so happy you had a wonderful time. I can’t wait to read about it.
Thanks for the picture!!
That is plain and simple W.I.N. Don’t mind me, I’ll just be living vicariously through you now. ;)
Is that Jennifer Celotta in the background in the striped shirt?
[from tanster: yes, that’s jen!]
Awesome awesome awesome! You, Tanster, are my hero. :)
Angela staying in character. LOVE IT!!!!
Can’t wait to hear the details either! Thanks for the picture Tanster.
I have only just got into The Office (don’t hate me – I am from England!) and therefore just found your fantastic site. I can’t wait to hear about your visit. You are one lucky lady!!!
That’s awesome! Lucky you! Angela looks totally in character, hee.
Angela’s expression is PRICELESS :)
Tanster … you’re the best! Posting a photo when you must have been so wiped out! You can bet I’ll be checking back frequently to hear your story.
I can’t say enough how much I love The Office cast! I’ve never heard of another show where the cast, crew, directors, writers etc are so invested in their show and their fans. It’s a unique and wonderful thing!
How funny that Angela has her “Angela” face on! And Phyllis looks beautiful, as always! I’ll never forget how kind she was to me when I met her – my first contact with anyone from the show. They’re the best and I’m glad you got to visit with them all again.
Awesome! Can’t wait to see the rest!
Wow… you’re all rocking the same neckline. You fit right in! I can’t wait to hear about your day.
I can’t wait for the report! I also will be vicariously living through you!
That is so awesome! So how does it work? Do you know what’s going to happen in the season finale now? I don’t think I’d want to know, but I guess it’d be worth it. That sounds like an exhausting, exhilarating day. I’m glad you enjoyed it. :)
Aww you are *so* lucky. I cannot wait for the rest of the story.
12 hours on set sound about like… the perfect day. :)
It was a good day for eath tones! Did you plan that with wardrobe??
[from tanster: lol! sheer coincidence.]
You know, Jennie, for many people, Thursday is the unofficial start of the weekend. That means you will be posting the photos and reports today, right?? RIGHT?!
Just kidding! Take your time. :)
Amazing! Can’t wait to hear the details of the trip
Cah. Not. Wait.
Thanks for sharing. You are a rockstar.
A lovely amuse-bouche. I can’t wait for more details this weekend.
Ahh! I can’t wait to see the rest of the pictures! You’re so lucky!
angela does not look pleased! can’t wait for the scoopage!
Tanster, I’m so very happy for you. Looking forward to hearing about your wonderful day.
Can’t wait to hear more!
So cute how Angela Martin’s ‘stern’ pose is now slightly altered because of Angela Kinsey’s real life baby bump. :)
yay! i can’t wait for more!!
ps; i can see your baby bump, angela…
So Jealous! Hope you had a wonderful day…and I hope you said Hi to Baby Kinsey too! :)
I love how the ladies have expressions you would expect from their characters. Hope you had fun.
[from tanster: yes, i asked the ladies to pose in character. :) ]
Jennie you rock the house. And look at Angela – all in character and in her prissy glorified self. I can’t wait to see more photos!
Ahhh! That picture is great. I’m so excited for the whole story!! :)
Angela looks sooo happy to see you haha…
Can’t wait… but I want spoilers!!!! haha
Very happy for you, Tanster! I can’t wait to hear the full report – and I hope you’re able to catch up on some sleep today!
Yay! Can’t wait to hear all about it! How sad is it that one of my first thoughts this morning was, “Oooh, wonder if OfficeTally is updated about the set visit yet??”
I’ve been checking WAY too often for updates. Jennie, you look amazing! I can’t wait to hear/see more.
Hooray!
Jeez, that’s a long day Tanster!
This is going to be repeated over and over, but for all for you do for us (AND NBC) you absolutely deserved this.
Thanks and huggy hugs.
Cannot wait to hear all about it – so glad you had a great time (as if there was any doubt!). Love the picture – especially Angela’s expression!
Oh man… so jealous!! :)
Wow, thanks Jennie! Looking forward to reading more about your visit.
This. Is. Glorious.
I like how all three of you are wearing matching brown shirts. It’s almost as if you planned it or something…
Can’t wait to hear all the details! Reading your recap will be my study break from final exams.
Haha I love Angela’s pin.
[from tanster: angela’s got the best cat jewelry!]
Yay, I can’t wait for more details! It’s THURSDAY everybody!!
Sooo…did you get a title for the finale?
Whooo hooo!!!! I’m so excited to see more!! Hurry it up! :)
48 – it made me wonder if tanster’s an extra in a scene they were shooting. :)
[from tanster: omg. that would be a dream come true!]
Lucky!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Add me to the group of people who will be living vicariously through you when you post all the details.
And Tanster, I have a feeling we might be seeing a little glimpse of you in the finale :)
[from tanster: i can tell you with 100% certainty that that is not true. :) ]
I can’t wait for the full recap tanster…We need extensive coverage of this! Hope the finale wasn’t spoiled too much for you!
I’m so excited to here about your heavenly day…hopefully you will have posted something when I get back from class (*crosses fingers*)
oh you’re so lucky Tanster! i live in La so believe it or not my father took me driving yesterday to…here we go…find the set of the office!! crazy i know, but with all the info the cast gives us in commentaries and episodes he thought we’d have enough info to find it, but sadly we didn’t. and i’m not a stalker this was totally his idea!
Lovely picture, Tanster. So photogenic! I love that you guys were color-cordinating there. hehe. The Office ladies featuring Tanster… coming to a TV near you!!!
I can totally see that happening…
Tanster, can we swap lives? Did you get to meet Kristin from E! yesterday?
[from tanster: no, i missed kristin by one day! she was there on tuesday.]
Great picture! Can’t wait to hear the rest of your day! I bet you couldn’t believe the day you had once you got back home!
Woot Woot! Great picture and nice idea having them pose in character. Hope to see more updates later on today! But then again it would be fine to see them tomorrow I mean I’m watching The Office tonight and that’s treat enough!
I see a man in the background in a tie……..is it is it….. is it John?
Please tell me if you ever need an assistant….
can’t wait to read and see more…..
tonight’s going to be good.
[from tanster: no i believe that is paul feig, the director.]
I am completely jealous! You must have had a marvelous time on the set, and I can’t wait to see more.
Angela looks divine.
The whole day yesterday I was thinking, ‘The season finale of The Office is shooting today and Jennie is there.’ And I could not wait for the report/pictures that you would have for us! Even though this was your second visit to the set, it must have still felt super exciting to be there, especially because it’s the season finale. You’re very, very lucky.
As much as I would LOVE to visit the set, I’d probably make a TOTAL fool of myself and do something really embarrassing…
Yay for Paul Feig! I’m glad he’s directing the finale- I’m in love, lol. (His biography is hilarious if you guys ever get a chance to read it)
It looks like you had a ton of fun Tanster, I am so excited to read more about your visit! :)
You must have had an amazing time! Lucky you! And Angela looks so very pregnant! Ahh, the jealousy!
It’s so weird seeing so many people in the office at once. Love it.
So great! Congrats again! I hope you get a walk-on role one day :)
So glad you had a great visit. Can’t wait for all the details! You aren’t really going to make us wait until the WEEKEND for more, are you!?!?!?
Welcome Back Tanster!
I’m glad you had a good time, I can’t wait to hear all about it! :)
Ahh, Tanster, you have GOT to post something! This is killing me! Only about 3 hours until the new episode! Oh, how I wish I was an east-coaster…
AW what a cute picture! Looks like Angela’s been practicing hiding the baby bump- you can barely see it!
Tanster, I’ve decided I secretly hope you’re just pretending to be too tired to update so you can watch tonight’s episode un-spoiled and un-tainted by all your usual Thursday night work.
Take a break, bask in the glow of your set visit, and come back tomorrow ready to dish all about it (and tonight’s episode).
And even though I feel that way, I still have been checking every hour all day to see what you got to do!!
Did you get to meet Lighting Guy?
[from tanster: yes. :) ]
Oh how lucky you truly are. Did you get to meet Paul Feig while you were there? Everything he does is pure gold.
Oh my gosh, tanster, another visit for you? Yay!!!
I have missed a lot of what is going on around here this week (been in the hospital–long story), but I’m glad to be able to check back in here. It’ll take me a while to catch up, but hey, congrats on the set visit! I hope you had fun (what am I saying, of course you had fun!), and that we get to read all about it VERY soon!
Congrats on getting to go visit the set again. You deserve it for all the hard work you do with Officetally.
By any chance did you ever find out which cast members fell for your April Fool’s joke?
[from tanster: i believe most of them did. except for brian. :) ]
E’s Kristen posted a report from her visit to the set, and apparently they are being even more secretive than Lost about what’ll happen to end the season. She even had to sign confidentiality agreements. Was there that kind of secrecy and careful hiding of spoilers while you were there?
Yay! I’m so excited to read your report =]
On the Watch with Kristin E! website, she said that she had to sign a confidentiality agreement. Did you have to do so too? Especially because it was the season finale?
Congratulations once again for being invited to watch them film! You definitely deserve that amazing experience =]
