For years, fans of The Office have wondered if the Dunder Mifflin employees might ever reunite for a reboot of the popular series (and a better question, whether it actually warrants one). And over the weekend, two Office co-stars did reunite—but only as part of a one-night special. (Sorry, reboot hopefuls.)
On Sunday, Steve Carell and John Krasinski, who played Michael Scott and Jim Halpert, reunited as part of Krasinski’s new YouTube channel, Some Good News, a show about good news happening amid quarantine. In the episode, the stars celebrated the show’s 15th anniversary of its premiere and reminisced about their time filming.
Carell revealed a few of his favorite moments from the show, including an infamous exchange involving a micro flat-screen TV in the “The Dinner Party” episode and another scene that included involved eating pasta in 105 degree weather during “Fun Run.” “Most of the memories have to do with things that we shared as a cast,” Carell said.
Krasinski also admitted that he had his initial doubts about the show. “After the pilot, I went back to waiting tables,” Krasinski told Carell in the segment. “I was sure nothing was going to happen with it.” They both agreed one of their most emotional moments during filming of the series was when Jim bid farewell to his boss, too.
Other moments the pair mentioned during their chat? The time when co-star Brian Baumgartner (Kevin Malone) casually sat on Carell’s lap during one of the cast Christmas parties and Krasinski doing a spot-on impersonation of Dwight Schrute (Rainn Wilson) while staying in character.
As for reunions, well, no concrete details just yet. “Hopefully, one day we get to reunite as people and all get to say ‘hi,'” Krasinski told Carell.
