‘Office’ Stars Visit Scranton

Promotional stunts just got a bit more valuable thanks to online video. Actors Brian Baumgartner and Angela Kinsey, who play characters Kevin Malone and Angela Martin on NBC’s “The Office,” dropped by the real Scranton, Pa., where the fictional comedy is set to promote the show and a fan convention scheduled for Oct. 26.

Within hours of their visit, multiple clips of their appearances around town, like this one at a rooftop party, have sprung up on YouTube. And unlike the video on the site for the con, the YouTube clips are embeddable, so fans of the show can further extend the promotional reach of the actors’ junket.

After the jump, more videos featuring Baumgartner and Kinsey both in and out of character.

Here, Kinsey and Baumgartner meet with fans at Scranton’s Steamtown Mall, which has been mentioned repeatedly in the show.

At a breakfast ceremony at Scranton’s Radisson hotel, they break into character for a short scene.

Rainn Wilson, who plays fan favorite Dwight Schrute, had previously visited the town December. Here he also appears at the Steamtown Mall, which is apparently the place for celeb spotting in Scranton.
