Ronnie has a connection to TV and to The Office specifically. He's friends with the photographer of a ton of TV shows and this guy also dates Kate Flannery - Meredith. About 10 days ago I got the thrill of a lifetime. It started off when we pulled up to the studio and it was - The Office! I mean it was the exterior of what you see on TV! Next, I was blown away as Kate Flannery - Meredith - greeted us for our private tour and lunch with the cast and crew. We also watched the cold opening being filmed before returning to reality.
Sorry, the photos are out of order and I don't feel like wrestling with blogger. And sorry if you've already seen all these on Facebook.
With Stanley. He was amazingly nice to us. We met him on our way to see Kate's trailer.
Creed. He really is that kooky in person. He told us two dirty jokes. The second one he even chased us down for as we were leaving. Ron has video!
Dwight. Rainn was definitely intense. He was good friends with Chris, Ron's friend, and so he couldn't say no to a photo with us!
Erin. Ellie is so sweet to meet. She even introduced us to her sister and waved when she saw us later on.
Kevin. It is a trip to hear Brian speak as himself, not Kevin. He sounds so different.
I was so excited to met Angela as I played her in a spoof video we did at work. She really is tiny!
Phyllis is awesome! She was more than happy to take a photo with us. Chris and Kate kept snagging everyone as they walked by and introduced us as their "friends." I'm friends with a TV star!
Ron channels his inner Michael.
I was so crazy excited at this point. I didn't know if I should pose or try to look natural. Don't you want to play with everything on that desk?
I LOVE this picture. Kate kept suggesting picture ideas to me. She had a couple bottles of alcohol in her desk and told me she is always finding new bottles in there.
Recap:
We met: Meredith, Stanley, Dwight, Phyllis, Kevin, Angela, Erin, and Creed
We saw: Jim and Pam (They got back late from an off-site shoot and so we didn't get a photo with them.) We also so Kelly and she looked at us like, Do I know you?
Not around that day: Michael, Darryl, Andy, Ryan, Toby or Gabe. Though we did meet Toby's (Paul's) brother who is a writer on the show.
I have more photos and stories but I don't want to bore y'all.
