Chatting with the Office-ianados

A special thinks to EVERYONE to came to the first ever TVj session for The Office over at BuddyTV.com. It was so nice that so many of my GMMRers showed up, and I got to meet a lot of really cool Office fans.

It was our first chat, so I knew things weren’t going to run perfectly, but overall I think most everyone had a little fun meeting and greeting fellow fans. Moving foward, I’d like to keep the chats open, meaning you all can read eachother’s comments and repond back and forth, BUT, I think I’ll try to moderate a little better so the chat doesnt’ go so fast. Perhaps throw in some easy ground rules that will make the chat more enjoyable for everyone. When you have 50 people chatting at the same time, chaos is expected. Also, I think the chat is going to go a lot smoother come the premiere of S3. My gut is telling me that chatting will be crazy on the commercials, but during the show, people will be focused on the show. So that will be a bit better.

I’ve recevied a bunch of emails today from people thanking me for moderating the chat. Please let me say THANK YOU!! I had a lot of fun talking with everyone and I’m looking forward to watching The Office with you all next week and throughout the season. Speaking of future chats, unfortunately, I’m only going to be able to hold an East Coast chat moving forward. There really wasn’t the crowd to warrant me doing two chats. Sorry West Coasters, I feel bad.

Thank you all for attending and I really, really hope you will continue to come back. If we get a good crowd going, I’ll see what I can do about perhaps trying to persuade someone from the cast to join us some time. No promises, but I will try.
