Exciting News for “Office” Fans

October 31, 2006 by  

The Office LogoYou know I try to wait until our “Office Thursdays” to share all the Office love. But this news was just so good, I couldn’t sit on it for two more days.

In addition to the fabulous Harold Ramis directing an episode this season, JJ Abrams (Lost, Alias, MI:III) will also be coming on board to direct an episode is February (sweeps anyone) . JJ Abrams directing The Office? It’s like my comedy and drama worlds are coming together in the most beautiful way..ha ha!

And get this…that wasn’t even the REALLY good news!! Nope. By now you all heard that on November 16th there will be a supersized ep of The Office, right? Well, it was just announced that this year’s Christmas episode will be…wait for it…wait for it…ONE HOUR LONG!!! Seriously? Seriously. One hour of The Office? It’s almost too mush good Office news for me to take in right now. (Source: How iTunes Saved The Office)

Since it’s Halloween, I had to share this hysterical picture from David Denman (Roy’s) MySpace page. I guess Roy is going to extremes trying to win Pam back.

    Holy cow. That’s amazing news!

    Oooh…I hope Dwight goes crazy and starts jumping off buildings while holding a machine gun or something. 😉 You know he would.

    Holy cow, he looks like a wannabe Jim Halpert.

    And, that’s amazing. A hour long christmas episode. Sweet!

    I was thinking Roy looked like a wannabe Jim too!!!

    I can’t wait for the supersized office, or any office really!

    I swear, if having my favorite Lampooner and Ghostbuster–yes, I know what Egon being my favorite says about me–direct, now we get an hour-long christmas ep. It really seems like NBC is really trying to give The Office a chance to shine, despite all of the other crappy programming choices that they are making. In the words of drunkPam, “Woooooooooooooooo!”

    I actually can’t tell what’s more exciting — the hour-long Christmas thing or the JJ Abrams thing. That being said, I will hurt JJ if Jim has some weird mental experiments done on him or Pam explains in two minutes what it took me five seasons to just sort of figure out about Clifford the Big Red Ball.

    A full hour of The Office? Talk about the best Halloween treat a girl could ask for.

    JJ, directing an episode of The Office?
    WOW.

    This is beyond my wildest dreams, and I didn’t think something this awesome could happen. This is like Christmas, my birthday, and pretzel day all wrapped into one. On speed.

  11. Big Tuna on October 31st, 2006 2:19 pm

    JJ Abrams directing…can we get a Sydney Bristow guest appearance? Maybe a Michael Vaughn or Jack Bristow?

  15. GMMR on October 31st, 2006 5:30 pm

    hahahahhahahahahhahah….sorry, but just when you think the Office can’t get any better, you make me entertain thoughts of Jim, Roy and Vaughn on a joint mission to save Pam

  16. Clare on October 31st, 2006 6:02 pm

    I’m so psyched for that Christmas special, and it’s only Halloween!! Jim’s card from last year HAS to make an appearance right? …right?…anyone?… please…That would really deck my halls!

  17. Jo on October 31st, 2006 6:20 pm

    Jim + Pam + mistletoe = we all have a very merry xmas.

    but pam’s gotta make the move.

  18. GMMR on October 31st, 2006 6:21 pm

    Agreed! Fancy New Beesly better start employing some Fancy New Moves to win that boy back. She owes him!!

  19. Mel aka foggy on October 31st, 2006 7:11 pm

    Wow – I’m going to have a merry Christmas afterall! And David Denman’s photo is a riot hehe.

  20. Rachel on October 31st, 2006 9:02 pm

    Woah…. Who is in the background on the left?? That is not Pam… who else could it be… I bet that’s the Stamford branch… does that mean they’re merging to the stamford branch??

  21. Jamie on October 31st, 2006 9:37 pm

    David Denman looks so thin!

  22. Jaord on November 1st, 2006 2:14 am
