10 Office Ladies Podcast Episodes Fans Will Love

8. The Client

The Office Angela

The Client is a huge episode for the series. It has Michael and Jan’s first kiss, the big debut of the script Threat Level Midnight, and shows us for the first time that Michael Scott is good at sales! Through a bit of networking, Fisher is able to get one of the “stars” of Threat Level Midnight, Catherine Zeta-Jones, to read the summary. She gives a brilliant performance in so few words, proving why Michael Scott would cast her as herself in his screenplay. Plus, Jenna’s story of how it all came about is nothing short of legendary and worth hearing.

But there’s still more! The Office Ladies get Melora Harden to talk about what it was like being on the show. As with all guest stars, we learn how they got their role on The Office, and in this case, we get to hear what it was like sitting between two legends, Steve Carrell and Tim Meadows. Harden revealed that while she wasn't initially cast as a regular, she and Carrell had such good chemistry that she and the directors knew they wanted the characters to be romantically involved.

In addition to Melora's two cents, we also get more information regarding the creation of Threat Level Midnight. Specifically about the artwork drawn on the script. As always, get a clearer picture about life on and around the set, like how Fisher, Kinsey, and other Office cast spent off time with cast members of other shows like Mad Men and Community.
