Ask Angela

From Jo: After four years, do you still watch the episodes when they air?
Almost always. I am a dork for our show. I love it! I may not be able to watch it each week once the baby gets here but we have it season passed on our TiVo!
From Mark: What do you and the rest of the cast do to pass time between scenes?
Well, we shoot very quickly. Because they want the documentary feel, we do not do big elaborate lighting setups. We might only have 5-10 minutes between shots. So in that time we'll grab a snack, go 10-1 (set lingo for a potty break), return a phone call, etc. Occasionally we get bigger breaks and Jenna and I will hang out. Brian and John usually have a Madden football game going. Oscar will get a crowd to gather around his computer. He loves watching karate and all kinds of sports stuff on his computer. You can always hear the guys ooohing and aaahing over some crazy thing he is watching. A lot of times we are all gathered around the craft service table grazing on snacks and catching up with each other. We have a very casual energy on our set. I think we are very fortunate.
From Justine: What's your favorite thing about Dwight and Angela? or Angela and Andy?
Hmm, well I love so many things about these relationships. They have really opened up a new side of my character. Like Dwight and Angela's forbidden love. They think they are so secretive. It's a lot of fun to play those scenes. In my mind, they are oddly perfect for each other. And I love how hard Andy is trying to woo Angela. Bless his heart, that cannot be easy!
