i bet after the guy told jim he was the executive producer he looked at the camera with his famous look.

John Krasinski's voice is like a warm hug on my ears

John and Jenna had chemistry right off the bat.

thats such a Jim thing to do lmaooo

This reminded me of the episode where Jim accidentally walks in on the daycare director in the kids toilet. Lol

I need another show with john, steve, jenna and rainn

Why is Jim pretending to be John? IDENTITY THEFT IS NOT A JOKE JIM.

my boi john looking like manager of the scranton branch

Out of paper Out of stock There’s friendly faces around the block Break loose from the chains That are causing your pain Call Michael and Stanley Jim, Dwight, Creed Call Andy and Kelly For your business paper needs Dunder Mifflin The people person's paper people Dunder Mifflin THE PEOPLE PERSONS PAPER PEOPLE!!!

I love the fact that he loves the UK version and wanted to get it right. I love the UK version too, and this guy was perfect for the role.

My heart...

In a parallel universe, John Krasinski and Jenna Fischer fall in love after years on The Office, and the whole world celebrates their love. But. They're both happy in this universe with their significant others' and made a fantastic show with their professional chemistry. So no complaints here.

My dad's friend makes broadway shows, and about a month before John auditioned for the office, he auditioned for our family friend's play and was rejected. It's weird to think that if they hadn't rejected him, he probably wouldn't have ended up as Jim.

That moment when US office turned out to be better than the British one.

I like this story about Jenna. They both talked about this with so many emotions

Honestly, if I were the executive producer, that would make me want him to be a cast member even more. To have an actor be so worried about not living up to the previous work seems to make them more motivated to really give it their all.

AWW, they asked if eachother got the part first thing, I can't even right now

I was literally watching The Office right now. Big fan

you can tell he is a pretty smart guy

Jim's facial expressions made that show

I just love how John and Jenna both immediately asked whether the other got the part when they were cast. 🤗❤️❤️❤️

This is such good timing, I finished watching The Office yesterday!

Those two definitely had chemistry on the show, can't imagine it with any others playing Jim and Pam.

Proof that I'm being watched: I watch The Office on Netflix. The Office type stuff is in my suggested on KZfaq.

one of the few things that America didnt screw up

Jim and Pam had chemistry before they played Jim and Pam

i can't imagine working so many long days for so many years pretending to be in love with someone and NOT actually falling in love with them.

Of course Jim and Pam are even cute in real life, omg

Still think they'd be cute together

Jim and Pam were two peas in a pod. They even looked alike. I just loved it when Jim looked into the camera with that goofy smile.

Jim is doing a really good job at playing this John guy, good job Jim! lol

Their energies on the show matched so well and made for wonderful television. I'm glad they both got the part.

Jenna and John were like the work spouses that were meant to happen.

Krasinski and Fischer don't seem any different in real life vs the show. that's interesting to me. amazing how film works like that

Wow that's amazing. Can you imagine? I love hearing audition stories and seeing them. It's must feel crazy that out of all those people, it ends up being you, a part of such a momentous famous show. And John Krasinski IS Jim. He's so amazing and the show wouldn't have been the same with some other actor. Everything happens for a reason. * starts crying *

Are you telling me that John passed the audition because he said that his favorite show was going to be ruined by the Americans?? That’s it. I fully believe in fate.

My god the episode where he pretends to get bit by the bat and he acts like a vampire...lmaoo 😄😄 hilarious

GOD I love these stories!

So funny he'd think that was a bad thing to say to a producer, when really it's the perfect thing because it shows he's invested in the show and that he really cares.

Re-watching every season tomorrow!

similar to how he walked in on the day care interviewer using the bathroom

The end. Real tears :'(

man it saddens me so much that john and jenna didnt get together in real life

These exact lines about John's audition are in the book "office the greatest sitcom of the 2000s" by Andy Greene. Just give it a read it's very heart warming that John and Jenna hit off right when they met each other.

I know hes not talking about me, but hearing him say my name😆☺️🥰 THE BUTTERFLIES

Wow. I adore John with my WHOLE heart. What a guy.

Why do I enjoy bloopers and audition stories as much as the actual films and TV shows?

I love that the office cast honestly just feel like they were right for the parts like i know it's maybe because i've seen the show but i find it hard to see anyone else in those roles that would have worked that well or just fit into place like so

Some a jim thing to do and him and jenna have such amazing chemistry its crazy !!!!

currently rewatching

Can't imagine anyone else playing Jim. He did such a good job.

2:18 aka: chemistry :) John stop worrying about upsetting Emily, stop putting down Jenna's words. You two had PLATONIC chemistry and it's clear. Embrace it!

Well known among the actors that Jenna was absolutely in love with John K's Jim. There are so many times when they're together that she forgets she's in character.

Amazing interview

One of the reasons I clung on to the show was just because of Pam & Jim's chemistry and what they were able to bring out on the screen.

They should make a spin off about Jim and Pam’s life after they move to Austin at the end

Omg ugh I love him so much

John K., Jim H. and Jack R. have the exact same voice, accent, timing and presence. And I love that from all John's characters.

John is my favorite actor and celebrity

I have watched many couples on tv and off. I have never experienced a fictional couple that were so natural and realistic as John and Jenna on the Office. I have seen many couples that are very good such as Outlander's great duo but there is something about Pam and Jim that go beyond fiction. I know they are both happily married and good for them. But even in their interviews they have a connection that is apparent. But of course they are both so down to earth , humble and real that they are very similar to Jim and Pam offscreen!

Goosebumps

Such a lovely man

It was so meant to be ❤️

Forever in love with Jim Halpert

Kudos to Greg Daniels for forgetting John's comment and recognizing the chemistry that kept so many of us tuning in year after year.

Best cast ever - even the villains are perfect!

oh my god i’m crying

No one in the world could have played him better imo. Or any of them. They casted perfectly

That man was actually just the assistant to the executive producer

Great interview. Funny as, for me, John's fears to have a watered down version of the UK show was exactly how I saw the first season. I watched the UK version first, then watched the first season of the USA show and found it really lame. Some episodes were sometime line per line copy and paste of the original show. I almost gave up but people told me that it would change in season and... damned it did! I am not almost done with season 5 and I am extremely glad I stuck with the show! When The Office US tries to replicate the UK version, it is really bad and looks like a poor copy. But when it does its own thing, it is a marvelous show! I would suggest anyone that started with the UK version to simply skip the US first season, as they do not really need character introductions anyway, as they already know them from the UK version.

love stories like this!! or these lol

John is so charming I love him so damn much

Not gonna lie its still hurt if i remember they dont end up together in real life. They both are a really really great actor and the chemistry is just there

John Krasinski is bae. 😍 Remember that old term, bae? Lol. But seriously. He just seems like a great guy...as evidenced by his new Some Good News show. It makes me tear up, and brings much needed light in this weird time.

I love him more than anything 😍😍

this had me tearing up

John dang you’re SO ATTRACTIVE ♥️♥️♥️♥️

I see office, I click

I NEVER thought that a dude just looking baffled at the camera could be THAT hilarious before I watched The Office.

Some things in life are just meant to be. Whether you are there or not, expecting it or not, hiding or running from it, if it's meant to be it will just happen. He's a lucky guy.

Someone should edit the end of this and the Jenna one together.

John is amazing :)

what an absolute lovely guy

I’m crying

I liked that interview

“And I thought OH THIS GIRLS GUNNA GET IT” lmao poor choice of words

John walks in and gets laughed at John: 😐

thank god that didn’t screw up his audition. he was literally perfect for that part

Awwwwww my hearrtttt

John Krasinski es the definition of perfect husband and perfect human being

These interviews are great. Who is this guy (the interviewer)?

Why did the ending make me want to cry

This interviews are so much better than your average late night show interviews with the host trying to interrupt the guest to make a stupid joke on every single time

I'm sure the Executive Producer not only appreciated that someone cared about the show (and was auditioning to be part of the US version), but he also realized that was such a "Jim" attitude to have. The audition probably helped too.

To be fair, John is kinda right about American sensibilities toward British based shows, and being a big fan of the UK version of The Office, I was reluctant to even consider watching it, and in my mind there was no way the infamous 'Michael Scott' I'd heard so much about compare to 'David Brent'. I recently started watching the US show and soooo happy to be proven wrong, and though far fetched at times, so much better than the original. Now it's become one of my favourite shows ever!

Jim and Pam being Jim and Pam before they even Jim and Pammed

THAT is the only kind of chemistry I wanna study in school

okay, im sorry but eVEN IF I DIDNT KNOW HOW GREAT JIM AND PAM WERE, i would totally imagine john and jenna being a great couple. that whole experience about how he felt when he met her and how BOTH of them instinctively asked if the other got the part? that shit is special

wow thats a great fucking story , it makes everything just even more special and perfect , i love it

This sounds exactly like something Jim would do That's why
