BDE #1: Best. Day. Ever.
It’s late, I’m exhausted, and I have full day of work tomorrow, so I unfortunately have to make this short for now.
The Office set visit today far surpassed my wildest expectations. Kath from GMMR and I got to spend the entire day with the cast and crew, from 9am to 6pm. We watched the filming of an episode, and it was fascinating and funny.
We also got a chance to chat with: Angela Kinsey, B.J. Novak, Brian Baumgartner, Creed Bratton, Ed Helms, Gene Stupnitsky, Greg Daniels, Harold Ramis, Jenna Fischer, John Krasinski, Kate Flannery, Kent Zbornak, Lee Eisenberg, Leslie David Baker, Melora Hardin, Michael Schur, Mindy Kaling, Oscar Nunez, Paul Lieberstein, Phyllis Smith, Rainn Wilson, Randall Einhorn, Rashida Jones, and last but not least, Steve Carell.
Yes, nearly the entire cast was there! My head is still spinning.
Here are just a few tidbits …
The call sheet taped to the door reads: “Super Fans, Jennie Tan and Kathie Skerry — who operate the fan websites OfficeTally.com and GiveMeMyRemote.com will be observing, asking questions, and taking pictures with cast — Please do NOT beat or flog them like the others!” How awesome is that?
Goofing off at reception. I look sad, but I’m ecstatic. Really!
More details to come …

Jim and Pam, anime-style
I loved this the moment I saw it!
Artist daphnemoon says: “It was actually a doodle I did during my math class (shh), but I loved the way Jim looked, so I wanted to draw it on the computer, and here it is.”

‘Blades of Glory’ coming soon
Jenna Fischer’s new film, Blades of Glory, is scheduled to premiere at the Grauman’s Chinese Theatre in Hollywood on Wednesday, March 28 at 6:30pm. It’s in theaters on March 30.
Blades of Glory also stars Will Ferrell, Jon Heder, Will Arnett, Amy Poehler, William Fichtner, and Craig T. Nelson.
Check out photos at the LiveJournal Office community (medium) and the morethanthat.net gallery (large).
Awhile back, Jenna wrote in her MySpace blog about working on the film:
Over the summer I worked on the comedy “Blades of Glory” with Will Ferrell, Jon Heder, Amy Poehler, Will Arnett and Romany Malco. On my first day of shooting I had to do a scene with Will Arnett and Amy Poehler (they are awesome). I don’t want to give away any jokes but basically I play their little sister and they are really mean to me throughout the movie. At the end of our first scene together the camera holds on my reaction and for the first 2 takes I looked into the camera.
