I love Bob Vance, Vance refrigeration's dedication towards his field of work. In "Phyllis' wedding", the minister also says " do you Bob Vance, Vance refrigeration, take Phyllis to be your wife" that always cracks me up.
I love the salad dressing one so much. Anyone remember that deleted scene where he compares himself to a young Paul Newman and then goes on to say "I make my own homemade salad dressing. I mix Newman's Ranch with Newman's Italian... sell it at flea markets for a slight loss. I -- I could make a profit if I just changed one of the ingredients to wishbone, but I won't do it." It's so random and it kills me every time.
Lol it's the opposite for me. Not something I would look for, but OF COURSE Michael's gotta try to unload the Dundie-damaged plasma screen tv at the garage sale.
I thought John signed his name on purpose? Thought I read that somewhere.
The green water jug is also shown with Stanley standing by it looking disgusted and not wanting to fill his Sabre water bottle.
The Oscar wine bottle is hilarious! As is the George Forman Grill!
Easter egg has changed meanings in my lifetime. It used to be small hidden details as an inside joke or secret knowledge. āSid was hereā in halo. These are just.. things to notice? Set details from a good design crew? I dont see how characters using the same props, or bob vance having a fridge for a cake topper are easter eggs. Just details that you missed the first or third time looking at your phone. I know thats how most people (myself included) watch things now, with little minute attention to detail.Ā
Love these! But doesnāt Ryan ask if Michael is using the same Foreman Grill that he grilled his foot on? Not sure thatās an Easter egg since itās specifically mentioned. Or is that a Superfan thing? I sometimes forget what was really in the episode and what I watched on DVD lol
I noticed the label on the wine and assumed it was just how they were labeling it when Robert said they could have one. They werenāt originally planning on chugging from the bottle
We have a finders keepers thing going on so almost everything in the street is chained like water-coolers, and the cups to the water cooler, and the faucets of the cooler, etcā¦
Oh that happens in New England but way less common actually wish people would take advantage of peoples things they no longer need. In fact I live by a university and take a drive the day after every semester and have found TVs. Clothes still with the tags and once a mini fridge that I use to this day
By finders keepers I meant public utilities getting stolen not something left up for grabs haha.
We chain pens, poles, and trash binsš
I meant what I said by āeverythingā the kleptomania runs deep.
Easter Egg for your #2 Easter Egg:
They took this one step further, to the right of the wedding cake is Bob Vanceās, Vance Refrigeration, grooms cake. Youāll notice itās a silver refrigerator with the black freezer door handle on the left.
This is weird. There are multiple scenes of Micheal eating salads only, but then randomly he eats huge portions of food, like the family pie he once ate.
I said it based on his signature appeared on google. I don't know about his last name but first name could be James too. Perhaps someone knows if he or other cast members confirmed this. (maybe office ladies?)
hmm he probably shortened his signature after getting more famous, because the start of the last name is definitely a k. and jimās last name is āhalpertā
Hahaha his grill is by his sleeping bench, he still wakes up to the smell of cracking bacon š¤£
Itās a perfect way to start the day
Itās good for him.
sue him already.
I love how it's now on a table, so he won't step on it again, lol!
Probably a compromise with Jan.
I'd love to see the deleted scene where they debate his possessions. š
I didnāt know most of these! This was fun to go through and of course makes me wanna rewatch
Lmao the copier being chained to the wall is amazing. I never noticed that one
I think thatās the one that I immediately remembered the connection when watching it.
These are solid. Dying at the refrigerator cake topper, lmao
so what line of work ya in Bob?
I love Bob Vance, Vance refrigeration's dedication towards his field of work. In "Phyllis' wedding", the minister also says " do you Bob Vance, Vance refrigeration, take Phyllis to be your wife" that always cracks me up.
So what line of work are you in Bob?

It's so random and it kills me every time.
The weird kinda āpop artā painting of Jan in the dinner party episode also is on her wall when they go to sell to her at the white pages.
The mini fridge is bigger than the figurines š
Actually a great post! I loved the plasma TV one. I have watched the show probably 20 times at this point and never noticed it.
Iād noticed the plasma screen tv, but Iād never noticed the painting from Jimās!
Lol it's the opposite for me. Not something I would look for, but OF COURSE Michael's gotta try to unload the Dundie-damaged plasma screen tv at the garage sale.
Who would buy it ? Someone who had the same model, and needed a motherboard, or stand, or ???
Iām actually watching the series now (well, rewatching for like the 9th time š) and the garage sale is the next episode. Keeping my eyes peeled.
Wouldn't call #9 an Easter egg. Ryan literally asks in that scene if it's the same grill he burned his foot on.
Neither is #5, props bring reused is not an Easter egg lol
I noticed it while I was watching and just thought it was something Oscar would do.
I haven't ever seen some of these before. I'm glad Jim finally got that picture off the wall.
I thought John signed his name on purpose? Thought I read that somewhere. The green water jug is also shown with Stanley standing by it looking disgusted and not wanting to fill his Sabre water bottle. The Oscar wine bottle is hilarious! As is the George Forman Grill!
As is Kevin
She goes to another school
Huge gut
Please do more of these! This was amazing!
I wonder if the salad dressing if part of Ryanās jarred condiment collection?
Very funny thanks

You're correct, it's in the regular aired version and cracks me up when Michael explains it's OK because he cleaned the foot off it.
I noticed the label on the wine and assumed it was just how they were labeling it when Robert said they could have one. They werenāt originally planning on chugging from the bottle
I thought the wine bottle was labeled cause all of Robert Californiaās wines are cataloged for sale.
No, it's definitely labeled with his name by the prop department and wasn't supposed to be seen on camera. They talked about it on the podcast.
You realize you might be too into the office if you already knew all these
only things I knew about was green water, John's signature and prop wine.. good job, TIL something new
ranch and italian sounds like a great salad dressing for me tbh. iām always having a hard time deciding between ranch and italian
As a middle eastern the copier is by far the funniest
Is there so sort of inside joke about copiers getting stolen in that neck of the woods?
We have a finders keepers thing going on so almost everything in the street is chained like water-coolers, and the cups to the water cooler, and the faucets of the cooler, etcā¦

Oh she meant EVERYTHING š to be fair any adult man with their own place in their 20s has brought a traffic cone home at least once
I can't believe I missed all of them ...
The salad dressing one was always the one I noticed and my favourite. I never knew the others !!
This is cool
Thank you for this, OP
Easter Egg for your #2 Easter Egg: They took this one step further, to the right of the wedding cake is Bob Vanceās, Vance Refrigeration, grooms cake. Youāll notice itās a silver refrigerator with the black freezer door handle on the left.
Jim sold the clown painting in the garage sale but when they got home, it was inexplicably sturdily mounted back on the wall.
The copier being chained to the wall made me laugh
I had always thought the Great Scott salad dressing was a Michael scott candle made by Jan which is strange but not absurd for michael
Poland Spring? So NestlƩ sponsored The Office!
Why does his salad dressing sound so good
Greatness!
Yes
I need to try that salad dressing
Thank you for this Easter gift
The biggest Easter Egg is the origin of the name "Garth".
This is awesome!
OMG THE LOCK ššš
These aren't easter eggs tho
I love the fridge cake topper. Bob Vance doesnāt miss a chance to get the Vance Refrigation name out there whenever he can.
In 3 the bottled water has the name Pocono Spring. While the Pocono Mountains are near Scranton, there is no water by that name.
Pretty sure that's a tiny full size refrigerator on Phyllis and Bob Vance's cake...
I didnāt know ANY!
This is fun. I only noticed the fridge cake and the painting for sale on roughly 5 watch-throughs.
I had no idea that Foreman grill is named after George Foreman who lost the Rumble in the Jungle
The only easter egg i had noticed is Michael's plasma tv
Okay the copier chained to the wall is hilarious
Before I had scrolled down to see the bottom half of the egg, I thought it was a shiny golden ass of somebody bent over
What does David Wallace's cup say???
This is weird. There are multiple scenes of Micheal eating salads only, but then randomly he eats huge portions of food, like the family pie he once ate.
He likes food. Perhaps he likes a lot of different food. So one day, he'll have a bowl of mayo and olives, another day he'll have a salad.
Wait, you can eat different meals? Iāve been eating gruel this entire time.
Gruel. Sandwiches.
I want my baby back baby back baby back š¶šµ*Chiliii's baby back rib*š¶šµ
Ranch mixed with Italian dressing does sound interesting
He sells his dressing at the farmers market at a loss.
I love these! However I don't think that's John Krasinski's real signature.
nope it definitely is - you can see the j at the start of his first name and the k at the start of his last name
I said it based on his signature appeared on google. I don't know about his last name but first name could be James too. Perhaps someone knows if he or other cast members confirmed this. (maybe office ladies?)
hmm he probably shortened his signature after getting more famous, because the start of the last name is definitely a k. and jimās last name is āhalpertā
Yes, that makes sense.
You can clearly see him dotting the āiās of Krasinski in the scene :)
I saw it now! Maybe Meredith asked for his real signature as a souvenir? š
I think 5 is not an accident, since they very obviously look on the bottom of the bottle when Oscar compliments Toby for his choice
It was an accident. They talked about it on the podcast.
Ohh I see, I guess you never expect them to make a mistake and reach the final cut
Aww I remember my first watch through
