NBC showed this new art of the cast of The Office at their upfront presentation, and we do mean art. Here’s the cast re-interpreting the classic Georges Seurat painting “A Sunday Afternoon on the Island of La Grande Jatte.” No, we’re not kidding. You must check this out:

Haha, that’s an amazing promo shot
NBC showed it at their “upfront”?
What the effff is that?
Horrible EW writing (as usual from this clown).
What’s your effing problem? If you don’t know what an upfront is in industry parlance, then Google it rather than show your ignorance, clown.
“upfront” is a noun and was used correctly in the sentence. Perhaps you should not be so quick to point out errors, especially when you are the one making the error. There’s no reason for the insulting comment at all. We’re all just here to look at a clever poster.
Hey, LaFonda: Do some research. Do you even know what an “upfront” is? Dear god. Some of these message boards should require an entrance exam.
That is SO awesome! What a great use of classic art for a TV promo. I love it!
does anyone know where i can find a full sized poster of this promo art??? i just found a small poster in the dvd’s for season 7 but i wanted something bigger.
Should have included Michael Scott in some way. As a tribute, if nothing else.
Who’s standing next to the tree, with the maroon umbrella? Is that someone?
That looks like the new hot assistant.
That new assistant that Deangelo hired..
Ah. I’ve got the last two episodes waiting on DVR…
“Hotness” aside (she’s just ok as far as I can tell) I’m still trying to figure out why that character was added to the show.
I agree with Mr. Holloway. I don’t think that girl is hot at all – just looks like a normal girl to me. And what is she going to add to the show?
@ kate
I’m guessing she’s supposed to be “Scranton-hot.”
The new girl reminds me a lot of Kristen Stewart for some reason. Which is fitting b/c I think she shows little emotion and doesn’t really add anything to the show.
well we really didn’t know what Erin was going to add to the show at the beginning, then she turned out to be a sweet, dimwitted, naive hoot. So maybe they’ve got an arc in mind with Jordan
@ alan of montreal
But at least there was a reason for Erin to be there: she replaced Pam as Dunder Mifflin’s receptionist when Pam quit to join the Michael Scott Paper Co.
Jordan, on the other hand, comes into an office that already has a receptionist AND an office manager. (Or whatever the heck it is that Pam does these days.)
Yeah, she really seems pointless. Erin at least made sense bc they needed a new receptionist. This girl doesn’t seem funny or necessary. I would rather they do more with Creed, Stanley, Phyllis, Toby, Meredith than add pointless new ones.
From what I read in an earlier post, she(Jordan) is the daughter of a high ranking honcho at Warner Bros.–which might just explain her(unnecessary) presence on the show.
MM – Thanks. That makes SO much more sense why her boring character is unnecessarily on this show.
@ST HA! Totally agree about Kristin Stewart.
If she’s the daughter of someone high ranking at Warner Bros, why would there be pressure to include her in a cast of a show produced by NBC/Universal? Not sure I by that theory. I think she’s pointless too but I doubt a dad or mom at WB would have that big of an effect on her casting.
I took me a while to figure out but I *THINK that’s DeAngelo’s CLUELESS secretary. And Gabe the farthest. LMAO
Who is jumping into the water next to the hot assistant who’s job is up in the air thanks to ferrel?
OMG, I totally missed Gabe in this shot, which is so fitting.
it looks like it may be erin’s ex HnR bf
that’s the asst. that was hired by DeAngelo…..can’t remember her name.
I’m pretty sure that’s Jordan. lol
They did… He’s in the back left looking into the pond!
@ doug – I believe that is Gabe
toby?
Poor Toby. Even with Michael gone, he’s off by himself.
…also, Angela and Meredith sharing a picnic blanket?! Hilarious! (And “Yeah, right”)
Is that Gabe in the way way way back left? If not, then I guess he is out?
Who is the guy behind the new assistant? Looks to short to be gabe. BTW where’s gabe, hopefully he leaves soon.
Is that Gabe way in the background? LMAO
Andy to follow up his turn in Sweeney Todd with a stint in the Scranton production of Sunday in the Park with George?
That would be pretty spectacular…
we do not belond togather!
there both sondhiem, too.
Jordan Garfield (Cody Horn) – new Executive Assistant
Because that’s what the office needs, another secretary.
Her dad is COO at Warner Bros.(or something like that.)
Jenna Fischer’s legs and ass are spectacular. Her real life husband is a very very lucky man.
MrSkin.com just called, your application for their new position of looking at art and making creepy comments about female anatomy has been approved…
Hope it stays that way after she pops a baby out!
yeah, whoever AIRBRUSHED them did a spectacular job.
Yeah, those are airbrushed for sure. I love Jenna Fischer, but that isn’t her real booty.
Yeah, her boobs are super airbrushed too. Not that big or pointy in real life. Still a cool pic though.
There are worse things.
Not to be a nitpicker, but the painting is actually called, “Sunday Afternoon on the Island of La Grand Jatte.”
Too late, you are a nitpicker…
here, here! I agree…if the writer of this article took the time to spell out the title of this painting, they at least could have gotten it right. It is not that hard.
Yes, you’re right. I wrote this post on my bberry while in the audience watching the Fox upfront presentation and my art history was a tad fuzzy. Fixed.
Here here? Do u mean hear? The author did write the full name of the painting correctly. Read on.
They should’ve had Cece as the little girl from the real painting.
I love the original painting (as well as the musical), but yes, the little girl is missing. All I can think of is “I want my glasses!”
Jenna Fischer should be holding a monkey on a leash. If only they had borrowed Annie’s Boobs from “Community”!
Ha… I was wondering where the monkey was.
Or the could have had CeCe on one of those baby leashes.
who’s bents knees are behind Jims leg,..next to the picnic basket. some one is behind Jim.
I think that’s just a basket of bread–not an actual person.
i was thinking the same thing. I’m pretty sure that’s just bread sticking out of the basket. lol
