Hard to catch things from The Office
So I recently watched the Office U.S. for the fourth or fifth time all the way through, and there are some things that I noticed that I hadn't seen before. So I decided to compile a list of things I've seen watching the showing, reading about the show online (the myspace's of all the actors, lifeintheoffice,theoffice_us, and imdb boards), and listening to the commentary from season one. If anyone has anything to add please do!! I'm going to try and get some caps to add to this as well.
Pilot
+When everyone is in the conference room, and Michael is ensuring everyone there won't be downsizing you can see boxes piled up between Jim and Dwight's desk. If you have seen the UK version you know that this is what Tim does to Garreth. John Krasinski, in the commentary said that they set up the boxes and did some takes, but ended up going with the pencils sticking out everywhere.
Health Care
+When the scene changes from Michael talking to the travel agent to the employees filling out their diseases it looks like Stanley's hand circling 'Depression' he also has mood swings, fatigue, muscle cramps and sleep disorders circled. Thanks to echobrain_ for the help on this one.
+Jim's sheet has all the disorders on the top circled and written in Count Choculitis, Ebola, Mad Cow Disease, 'something''something' ears.
+Other diseases that Jim and Pam wrote down- leprosy, flesh eating bacteria, hot dog fingers, Government created killer nano-robot infection, spontaneous dentohydroplosion.
The Dundies
+Kevin's Dundie for the 'don't go in there after me' award, I don't know what sport it is, but the statue is squatting.
+The card that Ryan holds up during Michael's opening rap says:
"Whose down with the dundie?
But if you're not, here's your membership.
You down with the Dundie
Yeah you know me
You down with the Dundie
Yeah you know me
You down with the Dundie
Yeah you know me"
Anyone know if the other card matches what he is saying?
Office Olympics
+When the national anthem is playing at the end, they show a scene with all the employee's hands over their hearts, and Kevin has his left hand over his heart.
+When Ryan throws away his medals you can just see a camera and the camera mans arm for a second before it goes to Pam at her desk watching Ryan.
The Fire
+Jim Pulls Oscar out of the way when Michael comes running out of his office after the fire alarm goes off.
+Dwight has a bandage around his hand from when he broke the glass in front of the fire extinguisher.
+When they are picking books during the desert island game Dwight hands the extinguisher off to Stanley who just takes it, and gives one of his Stanley faces.
+You see a camera and camera man and some lighting equipment right next to the Fire engine when Michael is talking about the books in the back of Ryan’s car. It's right before he calls Ryan an egghead.
+Right before Pam, Kelly, Meredith, and Phyllis are choosing 'who would you do' you see Meredith shaking hands with the fire men, and Kelly sitting on the fire truck with her shoes off, probably flirting.
Email Surveillance
+Creed is wearing the shirt he gives Jim at Christmas.
+They show Dwight talking to Angela outside at Jim's Party. In the background you can just hear Angela say "It's O.K. I mean....Jesus drank wine."
+List of people invited to Jim's party through the Evite- Angela, Stanley, Oscar, Meredith, Phyllis, Kevin, Creed , Joe, Mike, and Matt.
+heavenly__grace says that you can see the name James Halpert in the yearbook. So Jim's name is actually James!
Christmas Party
+In the first few seconds of the episode Pam is sending out Christmas cards from the office, and it is a cast photo.
The Injury
+In the first few seconds Oscar is talking about watching Lord of the Rings back to back, and in the background you see Angela and Kevin joking around. According to Angela Kinsey's myspace that really was them messing around, and they didn't know the camera was on them.
+At the very end of "The Injury," when Michael goes in with Dwight for the cat scan, he has his hand on Dwight’s foot then lifts it up and smells it, then makes a face like it was disgusting.
The Secret
+In the beginning of the episode while Michael is talking about the spring cleaning Meredith looks around, then throws an empty bottle of liquor away. Is it the same bottle Dwight found in her minivan in 'The Injury' or yet another one?
Dwight's Speech
+When Michael is showing off his plaque and certificate for salesman of the year you can see a Dunder-Mifflin Newsletter with a picture of Jan on it up on the cabinet door.
Take Your Daughter to Work Day
+When Creed asks if the kids want to see his four toed foot, and Michael says no, Creed says "the hair covers up most of it."
Drug Testing
+Michael spells heroin as heroine.
Conflict Resolution
+When Pam yells at Angela for ratting her out about planning her wedding on company time, in the background Michael says something like "Stanley you've got a lot of anger there buddy."
Casino Night
+theemptyspace16: Micheal says "Love triangle drama. All worked out in the end, though. The hero got the girl." even though he's talking about himself it can reflect Pam and Jim, because at the end Jim was with Pam and he kissed her.
Recurring
+Phyllis always dances: The Fire, Christmas Party, and Booze Cruise.
+Oscar is always on his cell phone: Basketball, Hot Girl, Email Surveillance, many more..(anyone want to help me with this list?)
+Kelly's Dundie for the 'Spicy Curry' award is a soccer player. In the Halloween episode Michael tells her she should have dressed in a soccer uniform because of the movie Bend it Like Beckham.
+Kevin gets the dundie for the 'don't go in there after me' award, then in 'The Fight' he comes out of the bathroom where Dwight's desk is with a candle. This could be the same candle that Jim uses in the opening ceremonies in 'Office Olympics' when he says he found it in the Men's restroom.
+Michael sings Mambo #5, but replaces all the words in old footage in 'The Dundies' and later we find out it is his ringtone in 'The Fire.'
+When Michael invites Jim out to eat for lunch in 'The Secret' he says he is just going to eat his ham and cheese sandwich in the breakroom. When he eventually gives in and goes out to lunch at Hooters he orders a ham and cheese sandwich. In 'Dwight's Speech' Ryan says that Jim eats the same ham and cheese sandwich everyday for lunch.
+Michael's nicknames for his employees- Jim: JimBag, Fat Halpert & thanks to ciachick711 SlimJim, and Jimbo. Pam: Pam-a-lama Ding Dong & thanks to shesnotasecret_ Ms. Beesly if ya Nasty, Spamster, Most Honorable Pamera.
+Pam fidgets with her ring: 'Sexual Harassment' when Pam's mom asks "So which one's Jim?", In 'Halloween' after Jim fires Michael, and she grabs his arm, and in 'Casino Night' right after Jim tells her he loves her.
+The picture of Jim (John) and the baby on his desk might be the niece that he mentioned on Conan. Maybe? This picture is also on the mantle of Jim's house in 'Email Surveillance.'
+Chili's is mentioned a lot. The Dundie's were held there, it's where they took Tim Meadow's Character in 'The Client,' Micheal tries to give Devon a Chili's gift certificate in 'Halloween,' and Billy met his girlfriend at Chili's as mentioned in 'Casino Night'
Goofs
+In 'Health Care' the camera shows Michael in his car talking on the phone trying to find the suprise for the employees, but there is no camera man inside the car. Then we get a shot from inside the car where there was no camera man.
+In 'Hot Girl' Toby has a picture of his daughter on his desk. Even though it is in black and white it still looks like she has dark hair. Sasha, in 'Take Your Daughter to Work Day' has blonde hair.
+In 'The Fire' Michael has Ryan's phone when he is calling his. When he realizes he has his phone on him he turns to go to the fire men, but doesn't give the phone back to Ryan. Then Dwight comes out, and it shows Michael who no longer has Ryan's phone.
+In 'The Fire' it is mentioned that Michael didn't go to college. In 'Email Surveillance' when he sits down to eat lunch with everyone with his cup of noodles he says that it reminds him of college, then goes on the say that the professors would come to the parties. But of course as gotothemirror pointed out, this could just be him talking out of his ass trying to get them to invite him to the party.
+thinkingatyou pointed out that although it could be Dwight messing around, talking smack, that in 'Health Care' dwight claims he never gets sick due to his perfect immune system so he doesn't actually need healthcare. However, in the 'Christmas' episode, he tells Jim he gets sinus infections and that he'll use the teapot to pour tea into his nose to cure it. Going along with that 8aimee8 brought up the fact that in 'Drug Testing' Dwight asks the drug tester if she remembers him, and we find out he had green pee. So that means yet another sickness?
+rdhp12 says that everytime a cellphone has been used in the episodes (mostly Ryan and Michael's) they have a different phone. You can tell in the episodes 'The Fight' and 'The Fire.'
