During the filming of The Office episode "Basketball", David accidently gave co-star John Krasinski a fat-lip, but they kept filming. They had practiced David giving John an injury, but had decided not to have it happen.
David: Man it's so much fun doing a studio movie, I can't tell you. They put you up, and you're taken care of so well, and when you're in it, you can't help but think that it's going to last forever. But it doesn't always work out that way.
David: (On super-sized episodes) I think it was so helpful for all the shows. But why it was so important to ours? I think we really needed that extra 10 minutes. The show definitely works in the half hour format, but there's so much that we do, and we shoot, that we never show, because there's not enough time, that you miss even more things. Having the supersized finale was so important to us.
David: (On making the commentarys for The Office DVDs) It's really strange and funny to have 8 people in a room watching an episode and talking about it. We ended up going off on these weird tangents, but it was all so funny. And it's definitely insightful and I think that's what people are hoping for.
