Friday’s ‘Ellen’ may be TiVo-worthy

I got an email yesterday from a very excited OT reader named Shannon:

I thought I’d give you (and all the fans of “The Office”) an update on a commercial I saw for “The Ellen DeGeneres Show.” I saw a commercial late last night for segments coming up this week, and up came a clip of John Cryer, Heidi Klum, and low and behold, our beloved John Krasinski!!!

Anyway, it was a clip of each of them singing, but there was no sound of them; just the announcer’s voice. I looked on Ellen’s website, and it lists Friday as “Ellen’s Karaoke Show”, and lists Heidi and John Cryer, and “some surprise performances.” (Why they didn’t list John Krasinski, I have no idea!) But, he will definitely be singing. And who doesn’t love John Krasinski singing??? “Love me, love me …”

Thanks, Shannon, for the heads-up!

Update: Here is a preview of Friday’s show — that is definitely John singing at the beginning!

Access Hollywood on the Office set

AccessHollywood.com speaks to Steve Carell and Rainn Wilson on the set of The Office. Hilarity then ensues. Or as Steve Carell states, “If I’ve choked one person, I’ve choked fifteen.” And watch for Rainn Wilson’s direct challenge to Office fans!

SPOILER WARNING! The video may contain scenes and discussion from future episodes. Watch at your own risk. Comments may contain spoilers as well. You might as well just pretend like you never saw this post. (What post?)

Clips and Quips video: missing scene

clips and quips

If you are a long-time Office fan, you’ve already seen Boaz Frankel’s hilarious interview with Jenna Fischer, John Krasinski, B.J. Novak, and Rainn Wilson.

But did you know there was a scene that was never aired? — Boaz tries out for the part of Phil, the intern. Talk about awkward pauses …

Watch the deleted scene here. (You’ll need to fast-forward through the Jordana Brewster interview.)
