P.S. Hey Tallyheads, just to set expectations, I won’t be asking the writers to do Q&A for every episode this season. I stalk the writers enough already, I don’t want them to put out a restraining order against me. :)

There is so much stuff landing in my inbox this week, I decided to unleash a bit of it now, lest I get totally buried. :) The remaining items that y’all have sent me will be posted on Sunday, regular Weekend Tally day.

Here are some tidbits about ‘The Office’ show, cast, and staff posted since the Sept. 21 Weekend Tally.
