And this completes the trifecta of Lost references on The Office
This is completely random, and I should be going to bed by now so I'll at least resemble a lucid human in class tomorrow, but I just found an interesting article from Office Tally called "How iTunes Saved 'The Office.'" What specifically caught my attention was this part:
Ever since then, "The Office" has paid almost as much attention to iTunes as to NBC. For example, "because people are watching more than once, it's become one more reason for us to be very careful to include subtle things as well as broad physical stuff," Lieberstein says. The iTunes effect hasn't hurt in attracting big-name directors either; Harold Ramis will direct an hour-long episode to air around Christmas, while "Lost's" J.J. Abrams is on board for a February one.
J.J.? Directing The Office? Guh?
I'm not sure if this is old news or what, but it's new news to me. I also don't know how true it is, but would I be amused if it is. There's just something so inherently right yet scary for J.J. to direct such an awesome yet comparatively low-key show. I wonder what he'll blow up in the episode. Karen's chances with Jim, I hope.
Speaking of Lost on The Office, if the warehouse workers are the Others, does this make the Stamford branch the Tailies? Aaaand I haven't watched enough Lost to make any more comparisons than that.
