EP. 157 — Goodbye Michael with Greg Daniels, Pt 2

This week we finish breaking down “Goodbye Michael” and we are joined again with the writer of the episode, Greg Daniels! The ladies and Greg get into what filming the last scenes with Steve Carell were like. Greg shares how he believed the show could survive after Steve’s exit because of how strong the ensemble cast was. Jenna gets into how they shot the airport scene and Angela shares an interview she did with Steve Carell during his last week on “The Office” set. They also talk about the Goodbye party the cast and crew threw for Steve in the warehouse. This is another great ep and we know you won’t want to sneak away to catch a Colin Firth film instead. Enjoy!
