“The Office” is the Best Comedy on TV

“You have won a tiny Dundie…”
I’ve said it all along, and now they have these little gold status to confirm it. What a crazy fun night. I actually was just able to see The Office win about 10 minutes ago via a MySpace video. Long story…but I wasn’t in front of a TV last night when the awards were announced. I know…I know!! Believe me, it damn near killed me. But I’ve seen it and that’s all that matters.
A few housekeeping matters – I am leaving LA later today. And no, I didn’t get to meet one single person from the cast of The Office. Honestly, I really thought it would happen…I thought it was one of those meant to be things. Ha ha. I guess I was wrong. Oh well. I got to meet some very cool TV stars, and I promise I will tell you all about it, but to be honest, I just haven’t had the time to digest it all. I have the day off from work tomorrow so we’ll dish then. And I may just have spotted one TV star that I hadn’t mentioned in a previous post. He may have been hanging out at my hotel pool yesterday, and he may have been such a fave of mine that my heart felt like it was on a ferris wheel all day 🙂
Ok, ok, back to the important stuff today, and that’s The Office’s win. Here we go.
Check out the cast and crew of The Office winning the all important Dundie!!! (A special thanks to ddker)
Jenna Fischer, being the coolest chick on the planet, updated her MySpace blog when she got home at 2:30 this morning. love that girl. Read Jenna’s favorite moments and check out some pics from last night. (Jenna’s MySpace Blog)
Check out videos of the cast of The Office including red carpet interviews and Conan’s opening scene in Dunder Mifflin (yeah, ddker rocks)
Backstage at the Emmys – check out the pics of the Dunder Mifflinites and their big award. (courtesy of the John Krasinski LJ community)
I wish I had time to post more pics, but I have to pack and get ready to leave. But like I said, I will be back to chat about my week and all the hot shots I was lucky to meet. Oh, and a personal thrill….a friend dropped my name to my TV boyfriend John Krasinski and he knew who I was…seriously, seriously?!
If you are looking to live in the post-Emmy win, check out these sites for info and pics (and check back because I’m sure they will be updating throughout the day).

And just because I can…
John looked ah-mazing!!! I loved the pictures of he and Jenna, they looked great!!!!!
Congrats to the whole cast and crew of The Office! Best moment of the night – I jumped out of my seat and cheered when they won!
GMMR – I know you were on your way home during Kristin’s (actually Korbi’s) E! chat today, but there was a question from someone who said J. Kras was already taken??? Since when??? I’m sure you would have posted something if you’d heard. It’s time to check around for the scoop!
Is it just me or did the entire cast look beautiful? I couldn’t get over it.
I loved Conan O’Brian’s reaction when the Office won. The cast looked amazing and John=hot as usual. Congrats to the entire cast and crew! They deserve it.
Okay – false alarm (I think) about the J. Kras thing from the E! chat – after reading the entire transcript it sounds like whoever asked the question confused John with his character Jim, and as we have already speculated, it’s Jim who might be taken this season.
Whew… that’s a relief! 😉 Though Kristin did mention during the Emmy pre-show that John and Rashida Jones had dated before.
I’m still giddy because the office won! Sorry you didn’t meet anyone from the office, GMMR. But, tell me you talked to Gregory Smith or Chris Pratt or someone else from Everwood!
