All about Oscar

Here are two interviews with Oscar Nunez (“Oscar”):

  • MeeVee talks with Oscar Nunez

    What was the atmosphere like when you filmed the season premiere (The Gay Witch Hunt)? You got kissed by two men in the same episode.
    Two? Oh, that’s right, Rainn (Wilson, Dwight) got one in there at the end too. We shot that awhile ago. It was a wonderful experience. I did a couple of takes, but I didn’t know Steve (Carell) was going to kiss me. When I looked over, everyone was looking down and hiding their faces, laughing.

  • Interview with Oscar Nunez at AfterElton.com (warning: website is NSFW):

    AE: So, speaking of actors, what is it like to work with Steve Carell?
    ON: It’s a dream come true. Except for Steve’s drinking problem, it’s wonderful. He rarely strikes me, but when he does, it’s because I deserve it. I mouth off. I’ve been an actor for 20 years, and it’s probably the most fun I’ve had.

‘Office’ Lovebirds Enjoy Their Work

Frazier Moore of the Associated Press talks to Jenna Fischer and John Krasinski about their roles of Pam and Jim on The Office.

An excerpt:

Pam was thrown for a loop by Jim’s boldness [in Casino Night]. So, apparently, was Jenna.

“At the table read,” reports John, “when I first read my line, ‘I’m in love with you,’ Jenna said, ‘What?!’ — right in front of the whole cast. It was hilarious. They put that in the final script.”

Office Sweethearts Tease Tonight’s Return

TV Guide talked to Jenna Fischer and John Krasinski after their appearance on The Today Show this morning.

An excerpt:

TVGuide.com: A concern of some critics is that your story line threatens to make The Office, a comedy, too “angsty.” Do you take that personally at all?

Krasinski: People have been saying that for a while, but the writers keep it so realistic that I feel like however it came out, you can talk to a number of people who have had a similar experience. I feel like we sort of answered a lot of questions, and I’m really glad that we ended [Season 2] the way that we did.

All about Schrute-Space

Rainn Wilson talks to Mcall.com about the origins of his Schrute-Space blog, Scranton, and his feelings about the Internet.

An excerpt:

He often pens the blog on set, so if you see Dwight working at his computer in the background of a scene, chances are his mind is in Schrute-Space.

Wilson, 40, has effortlessly attained what millions of bloggers aspire to — a steady audience — without liking the Internet all that much.

Esquire Q&A with John Krasinski

Esquire has a brief chat with John about “The Office,” “For Your Consideration,” and “Brief Interviews with Hideous Men.”

An excerpt:

ESQ: When the U. S. version of The Office debuted, there was no telling if it would survive. Are you breathing more easily in the third season?

JK: Definitely. For a while we were all thinking about applying to a restaurant close to the studio, so that at a moment’s notice we could go work over there. I remember thinking, We get a DVD of this, right? At least I can prove to my mom that it happened. Now people actually care about it.
