Um...WOW

Have I mentioned that The Office has the BEST CAST EVER recently? Cause it totally does. And I met them!! I went to The Paley Festival tonight and had one of the best experiences ever. First things first, I MET MELORA AND STEVE!!! Yes, Steve was there to my complete shock and delight. I got an autograph and a picture with each of them and told them how much I loved Michael and Jan not to mention their acting. And I also got a picture and autograph from Rainn (LOVE) and a picture with Angela and an autograph from Jenna and pictures of a bunch of other cast members. And I talked with Greg Daniels! Who is very cool.

Biggest news on the Michael/Jan front? We saw about 10-15 minutes of the next (? wasnt clear on that) episode and Jan is there!! With Michael and OMG it is hilarious. I may just love this ship times infinity. Michael is just so awesome in this episode, there are no words. And there was a blooper reel that made me LMAO and they showed Cocktails which made me happy. And Steve kissed Oscar! For real this time. Oh Steve, how I love you. I have notes on everything but the blooper reel so I'll share that tomorrow. I just can't believe I met them!! Totally worth all the money. Oh and they all look just as gorgeous in person. What an amazing, wonderful, squeeful night *happy sigh*

ETA: Okay I have no strength to resist Michael/Jan so I typed up some of their stuff in the part of the episode that was shown. Beware, LOTS of spoilers under the cut including quotes, plot details and jokes:



So to get a raise, Darryl tells Michael to call his girl at corporate ie Jan or something like that. He tells Michael that he needs to show who wears the pants in the relationship. So then Michael talks to Jan on the phone and she tells him to come see her in person at 5. She needs a third party so although Michael suggests Darryl (Jan: "the warehouse guy??) Jan says an HR rep ie Toby. Michael goes all dramatic "I'm going to kill myself! "worst human being", etc but agrees. So yeah we finally see DM NY with Jan's new "boy toy" assistant that Michael gets jealous of although at this point I was just SO happy to see Jan. So they're in there meeting and "lovers" was mentioned at one point, I'm forgetting context there. Michael says something about how this is personal about their close relationship or history or something and of course Jan is annoyed because this is supposed to be all business. So Michael says something about giving Jan jade earrings and then telling her she gives him the raise or "no more sex". SO FUNNY. Jan asks Toby to leave and he says something about withholding sex and lawsuits in a TH (Toby is awesome in this episode). Back to Jan and Michael, Michael says something about his heart (I wish I had better notes but I was trying to watch too!).

Then Jan says "What is wrong with you?" which is hilarious in itself but she says it in a pretty nice way. So that's where Michael spills his story as said about his horrible day (details in later post). I definitely think that's one of the most important parts of their scenes together, that Michael can be honest with her and shed his cool guy image and that's when Jan tells him she can give him a 12% raise but he needs to ask for 15%. And Michael's all like, what? why? But says it and Jan agrees to give him 12% but he then says "but you just said 15%". Too funny. So then Michael is talking in a TH type scene and he's like, its all about the perks like sex with Jan and then the camera moves to reveal she's next to him and she drags him away. Its soo awesome. I can't wait to see it again!



Okay, really going to bed now.

OMG I KNOW!!! I still can't believe I met him and how much his voice sounds like Andy's from 40 year old virgin. He was so nice, always saying thank you including when people told him they liked his movies. I just kept glancing up at him and being like OMG theres Steve! It was insane and so surreal.

[identity profile] lucius-admirer.livejournal.com 2007-03-03 12:02 pm (UTC)(link)
Whoa, so cool! awwwww *is still jealous* I want to see the pictures you took :)

[identity profile] anoel.livejournal.com 2007-03-03 12:06 pm (UTC)(link)
Sadly I don't have a digital so it'll be awhile but I'll put them up as soon as I can. I'm just hoping they come out okay.

*keeps fingers crossed* :)

Holy shit. You met Steve. Holy SHIT. You met STEVE *squees like whoa* Dude, so happy for you!! You met Michael and Jan Steve and Melora! O_O Oh my GOD.

[identity profile] anoel.livejournal.com 2007-03-03 12:07 pm (UTC)(link)
GAH I KNOW! That was my reaction. Just WOW. That was certainly the last thing I was expecting. They completely played it to make me the happiest person ever :D And yeah, I kept having to resist calling them Michael and Jan. If there personalities weren't so different...I still can't believe it.

[identity profile] trustingno1.livejournal.com 2007-03-03 12:35 pm (UTC)(link)
and then the camera moves to reveal she's next to him Um, yeah, I LOVE THEM SO MUCH. And I want to seeeee. Too long 'til new eps! *is wide eyed*

Oooh, random Toby love, because he's one of my favourite characters. ♥

*obligatory Cocktails squee* Oh, man, I'll have to watch that as I go to sleep tonight. Jan's "please don't cry" at the end makes me laugh way too hard every time. God.

And I'm still not finding this any less AWESOME than I was an hour or so ago...

[identity profile] anoel.livejournal.com 2007-03-04 02:53 am (UTC)(link)
I know! That was an awesome moment. And yeah, LOTS of Toby love in this episode. Hehe I love the please don't cry too much. It was so much fun to watch that episode again.

I AM SO JEALOUS! I can't wait to hear more about the festival :D

[identity profile] anoel.livejournal.com 2007-03-03 12:10 pm (UTC)(link)
So much to tell, so much. I mean it didn't go on long enough but just as I expected, the cast stayed a pretty long time to meet/sign/photo with people. My only complaint is I wish I was spoiled more for future plotlines (they have them planned now) but I can't really say anything because I got to see so much of a future episode. I hope other people will remember things I forgot, I'm already loving the pictures.

Oh dear lord. So. Jealous. No...words...isngdovnowisng. STEEEEVE. They all sound so lovely! Ugh. Still jealous. Will never stop being jealous. ever. And LOL he sounds like Andy (from the movie, not...Ed Helms-Andy), I don't know why, but that amuses me.

Photos coming soon, I hope? :)

[identity profile] anoel.livejournal.com 2007-03-04 02:56 am (UTC)(link)
STEVE! I still can't believe it. They really are an awesome group of people. I can understand your jealously, I wish all the big Office fans could see it. I swear, he said something and I was like, that is EXACTLY how Andy sounded like. Crazy to know you're in the presence of a movie star.

Yep, photos as soon as possible :)

OMG YOU ARE SO LUCKY!!!
I'm insanely jealous, but that goes without saying. Also very happy for you, yay!

The M/J stuff sounds hilarious and awesome. Eeeee!
I can't wait to hear more.

[identity profile] anoel.livejournal.com 2007-03-04 02:59 am (UTC)(link)
Eeee I know :) I am so grateful of the opportunity. It was hilarious and awesome. You know you're a long lasting couple on the obvious when you can be both. BTW I love you icon *loves that moment*

[identity profile] stephmck.livejournal.com 2007-03-03 01:02 pm (UTC)(link)

[identity profile] anoel.livejournal.com 2007-03-04 03:01 am (UTC)(link)
OMG SQUEES MORE! I still can't believe it, its so unreal. The future episode was worth just going to it, soo awesome. I totally support making The Office your new fandom hehe. I have a feeling I'll be here for a long time.

I'm skipping the spoilers for the moment, heh. BUT OMG I AM SO JEALOUS. Even though I was having a pretty good time of my own at the time. ;)

Steve kissed Oscar for reeeeal? XD

[identity profile] anoel.livejournal.com 2007-03-05 05:17 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, its awesome how we both got to meet one part of the great Daily Show team. It's still just unbelievably awesome and unexpectedly perfect. And yeah, total kiss! I couldn't believe he was going to do it but he did and it wasn't too short either. Definitely one of the highlights. I wish you had been there :)
