Jenna Fischer and Angela Kinsey on The Office BFFs book

In Office BFFs, Jenna Fischer and Angela Kinsey spill Dunder Mifflin tea with personal stories and photosThis book made me so nostalgic and brought such joy to my Office-loving heart! It was so wonderful to hear first-hand accounts of working on The Office and the bond the cast and crew had. I laughed so much while listening and probably had a smile on my face the entire time. Other than Steve Carell, the cast of The Office were primarily starving artists who had small acting parts and were struggling to eke out a living. They all became great friends and several of them had known each other. As an example, John Krasinski (Jim) and B.J. Novak (Ryan) grew up in the same MA neighborhood. Angela and Kate Flannery (Meredith) had done stand up improv at the same venue. It was a pleasure for us to make the show, and I think because of that, it is a pleasure to watch." The Office is an American sitcom set in a mislead office environment. Lead by Micheal Scott (Steve Carell) every employee in the work place grows on you, and eventually you’ll love them like your best friends! They go through the goods and bad’s of life with you, and you’ll find tons of moments where you want to laugh your guts out, and some times where you want to cry.

Some product placement -- notably by Staples. One episode takes place at Hooters, another at Chili's, etc. B.J. Novak (Ryan) and Mindy Kaling (Kelly) were writers and actors on the show. Paul Lieberstein, (Toby in HR) was a writer without any acting experience and no desire to be an actor. He was written into the show and continued to be included in the show because his deadpan face worked well with Steve Carell's (Michael Scott's) antics. I liked The Office when it was airing live but I’ve come to love it in the past few years as a true comfort show. I know which episode it is in the first 30 seconds but that usually doesn’t stop me from rewatching or laughing like it’s one of my first 3-4 times seeing the episode.
