I definitely spent 401 00:24:15,429 --> 00:24:16,847 more hours here over the past ten years 402 00:24:16,930 --> 00:24:19,624 than anywhere else in the world. And it's not a 403 00:24:19,726 --> 00:24:23,364 very pretty place to be, but there was a lot of 404 00:24:23,464 --> 00:24:27,877 - laughter and a lot of great ideas. - Oh, come on, it's not real, 405 00:24:27,970 --> 00:24:30,499 - Stanley.

It finds comedy in the smallest 411 00:24:49,177 --> 00:24:52,094 human beats of life. It doesn't always 412 00:24:52,196 --> 00:24:55,112 look for big, ridiculous moments, which we 413 00:24:55,205 --> 00:24:57,363 - certainly have our share of those. - What are you doing? 414 00:24:57,735 --> 00:25:01,957 - Come on!

Clear out, stat! Stat means now! 421 00:25:19,163 --> 00:25:21,628 And then, over time, once the characters 422 00:25:21,742 --> 00:25:23,921 took on a life of their own, the characters 423 00:25:24,019 --> 00:25:25,916 - started dictating the story. - The only way to 424 00:25:26,009 --> 00:25:28,679 capture Andy is to capture the extremes of 425 00:25:28,815 --> 00:25:33,689 Andy. One is when Andy flips out and punches a hole in the wall. 426 00:25:33,800 --> 00:25:42,334 - Ah! - Then you have a scene where he is serenading Angela with his 427 00:25:42,439 --> 00:25:44,765 a cappella group over the speaker phone. 428 00:25:44,855 --> 00:25:47,063 ♪ If you need me let me know ♪ 429 00:25:47,166 --> 00:25:53,351 ♪ gonna be around if you got no place to go if you're feeling down ♪ 430 00:25:53,511 --> 00:25:56,834 That is how sweet and hopeful and happy he can be. 431 00:25:58,160 --> 00:26:01,179 Those two things together are 432 00:26:01,280 --> 00:26:04,632 really the complexity that is The Nard Dog. 433 00:26:05,685 --> 00:26:06,755 You don't need to stay here. 434 00:26:06,856 --> 00:26:11,655 - I know. - Having a lot of emotional content in a comedy, to me, is 435 00:26:11,754 --> 00:26:14,578 great because the audience doesn't ever know what you're going for. 436 00:26:14,674 --> 00:26:18,798 You could be going for a poignant moment and then you surprise them. 437 00:26:19,021 --> 00:26:24,238 - So you're PMS'ing pretty bad, huh? - So much of the show is 438 00:26:24,352 --> 00:26:26,407 scripted I think it would surprise people. 439 00:26:26,496 --> 00:26:27,558 They will script our looks to 440 00:26:27,633 --> 00:26:30,999 - the camera. - It was just the acknowledgment to the audience 441 00:26:31,091 --> 00:26:33,552 that, you know, are you watching this?

Everyone just works very, very hard to make it look like it's 454 00:27:04,189 --> 00:27:07,309 - done on the fly. - Ah! - Ah! 455 00:27:12,368 --> 00:27:14,864 We script it to feel very naturalistic, and 456 00:27:14,969 --> 00:27:17,573 we always would have the last few takes be 457 00:27:17,694 --> 00:27:20,806 - improvs. - We'd say, now you do your version of that. 458 00:27:20,909 --> 00:27:25,294 Where Steve and Rainn would lead the way and take it to these brilliant places. 459 00:27:25,401 --> 00:27:27,371 - Do I stress you out? - Nothing stresses 460 00:27:27,451 --> 00:27:29,913 me out except having to seek the 461 00:27:30,015 --> 00:27:33,342 approval of my inferiors. The writers trust 462 00:27:33,449 --> 00:27:36,427 the actors enough to let us play with their 463 00:27:36,545 --> 00:27:38,944 - lines and improvise off of them. - There was an 464 00:27:39,048 --> 00:27:42,354 episode I wrote for me and Rainn called "The 465 00:27:42,449 --> 00:27:44,996 Initiation" in which Dwight takes Ryan to 466 00:27:45,099 --> 00:27:48,930 - his beet farm. - Your journey begins now. 467 00:27:50,837 --> 00:27:52,013 And I had written the script and put a lot 468 00:27:52,100 --> 00:27:54,941 into the script, and it was early so I still 469 00:27:55,054 --> 00:27:57,466 thought that you couldn't improve on a great script. 470 00:27:57,588 --> 00:27:58,557 I was planting the seed in the 471 00:27:58,654 --> 00:27:59,880 ground and that was the end of the scene. 472 00:27:59,977 --> 00:28:01,250 Then he said-- 473 00:28:01,353 --> 00:28:03,159 Just as you have planted your seed in the 474 00:28:03,255 --> 00:28:08,125 ground, I am going to plant my seed in you. 475 00:28:08,228 --> 00:28:11,198 That was a line that I just came up with on the spot. 476 00:28:11,276 --> 00:28:12,478 I'm like, yeah, this is cool, I 477 00:28:12,567 --> 00:28:14,978 - get to be a writer and an actor. - That improv 478 00:28:15,078 --> 00:28:17,112 was so much better than any other line in 479 00:28:17,218 --> 00:28:21,884 the script I had written.
