Launch Party - S4-E3

Factual error: Michael and Jim are driving from their Scranton, Pennsylvania office to the company's headquarters in New York City for a website Launch Party. However, during the drive, it is clear by looking out the car windows at the mountainous and desert landscape that they are in California, where the show was largely filmed, and not in Pennsylvania, which does not remotely resemble that type of geography.

Suit Warehouse - S9-E11

Continuity mistake: They take a pledge to "We all drink them all" referring to the espresso flavors. Angela puts her hand on top of the pile and it flips between Oscar's hand and Stanley's hand under hers depending on the camera angle.

Launch Party - S4-E3

Continuity mistake: The way the numbers on the sales board are written by Andy change in between shots. (For example, the "305" is written differently, but still "305"; not that it becomes a "380" when Andy changes the number).

Get the Girl - S8-E19

Continuity mistake: When the group is chanting, the first shot of the balloon has the forklift prong over it. In the next shot, Daryl is driving the forklift towards the balloon and the prong isn't over the balloon yet.

Tallahassee - S8-E15

Continuity mistake: When Dwight is holding the "Taboo" buzzer in front of Erin, he's holding it so the speaker is facing down. After Jim slaps him, he's holding the buzzer so the speaker is facing up.

Michael Scott: Yes. It is true. I, Michael Scott, am signing up with an online dating service. Thousands of people have done it, and I am going to do it. I need a username, and... I have a great one."Little Kid Lover." That way people will know exactly where my priorities are at.

Viewing Party - S7-E8

Trivia: Michael says his favorite "Glee" character is "the invalid", referring to Artie Abrams. Artie is played by Kevin McHale. McHale appeared in one episode of "The Office", s04e03 (Launch Party), as the pizza delivery boy that Michael ends up "kidnapping."

E-Mail Surveillance - S2-E9

Question: When Angela is buying the Baby Ruths, most of the other candies are turned backwards (I assume to avoid product placement). But above the Baby Ruth is one with the name facing forward that looks like it's called "Picaroon." Is this a real candy bar that's local to the Scranton area or just completely made up? If it's made up, any inside information about where the name came from or if there's an inside joke or show reference to it?

Answer: In the 2007 episode "Ben Franklin" when Jim is talking to Pam there is a candy bar with a purple wrapper that says "Picar-" I assume picaroon, it's hard to see past Pam. I found this trying to investigate what that candy bar is lol.

Answer: There does not appear to be a real candy bar by that name. The word is real, however. It refers to someone who is a rogue, a scoundrel, a thief, or an otherwise dubious character.
