The Year’s Most Explosive Action Thriller Is Here – Thanks To Michael Scott!
Fans of “The Office” know that Michael Scott wrote a script for an action movie he was going to star in – the name?
“Threat Level Midnight!”
It’s one of the funniest episodes of this classic TV series.
As Newser reported:
“Fans of the The Office know Michael Scott penned the screenplay for an inept spy thriller called ‘Threat Level Midnight’. Pam discovered the script in season 2, and viewers got a taste of the actual movie in season 7.”
Jim and Pam corral a bunch of staff to do a “table read” of the script – and it’s hilarious!
Well, after all these years, “The Office” has made the entire 24 minute film available on YouTube!
Here is the incredible Michael Scarne thriller – enjoy!
As Newser reported:
Previously, it could be seen only as an extra as part of the season 7 DVD, notes the AV Club. The latter website also finds the length interesting, roughly the same as a regular episode of the show. That raises the question of whether it was originally meant to be seen on TV. Regardless, the adventures of secret agent Michael Scarn await those who miss The Office.
I agree, I don’t care why they did it, I just love that they did!

I loved both versions, the British and ours, and each had their charms. at the end of the brit series, they made an office party special that is one of my favorite things ever, David Brent improv dancing.

I have never watched the US version of The Office, though I was a huge fan of the British original.
(Same thing with ‘Shameless’. I never really understood why they just don’t show the UK version)
Best wishes, Pete.
