The Fire - S2-E4

Corrected entry: There is a black microphone visible for a second at the top of the screen when Jim, Oscar, and Pam are walking out of the building. (00:04:00)

Mechanic1c

Correction: That is because they are constantly being filmed for a documentary. They do not try to hide the fact that there is a crew just outside the frame.

The Dundies - S2-E1

Corrected entry: At the awards ceremony, Jim is shown sitting at a table with Ryan, Kelly, and Toby. Seconds later they are shown again with Jim at a different table, and Toby and Kelly in different seats.

Correction: Upon closer inspection, you'll notice that Jim is sitting down at a table while Toby, Kelly, and Ryan are standing at the table. Dwight begins his introductions for Michael as the camera pans away to show Dwight, and also pans to Devon. Then we see that Kelly and Toby have sat down at a table near Devon. When you see Ryan next, he's standing/crouching near Jim in order to hold the cue cards for Michael. So it wasn't that Jim switched tables, but instead, he switched during Dwight's intro. Kelly and Toby walked over to their table (with time to do so) and Ryan went over to his spot to hold his cue cards.

The Injury - S2-E12

Corrected entry: At the beginning of the episode they show a shot of Angela talking to Kevin by Stanley's desk. But then the scene cuts to Pam answering the phone near Jim, and Angela is suddenly at her desk. There is no way in that amount of time Angela could walk over to her desk.

Correction: Most TV shows don't run in real time, we don't know how much later the phone call takes place, Angela had plenty of time to walk to her desk.

Correction: She says "oh there he is"... Watch it again and listen close.

Business Ethics - S5-E2

Character mistake: Meredith admits during the ethics seminar that she has been sleeping with Bruce, the HammerMill rep, for discounts on paper/paper supplies for the company, as well as Outback steak coupons, for 6 years. But, Dunder Mifflin did not begin selling Hammer Mill products until 3-2 "The Convention" when Michael got the contract.

Suggested correction: Michael didn't establish the contract with Hammer-mill. Rather, he locked them up as an exclusive supplier. It's unknown if they were already selling the products to Dunder Mifflin alongside Staples and Office Max.

Wrong, Josh says they cannot sell Hammer-mill products as they are exclusive to Staples so therefore they wouldn't have been able to sell there products alongside as mentioned before until Michael made them an exclusive to them solely, Dunder Mifflin. Therefore the original mistake stands true.

E-Mail Surveillance - S2-E9

Question: When Angela is buying the Baby Ruths, most of the other candies are turned backwards (I assume to avoid product placement). But above the Baby Ruth is one with the name facing forward that looks like it's called "Picaroon." Is this a real candy bar that's local to the Scranton area or just completely made up? If it's made up, any inside information about where the name came from or if there's an inside joke or show reference to it?

Answer: In the 2007 episode "Ben Franklin" when Jim is talking to Pam there is a candy bar with a purple wrapper that says "Picar-" I assume picaroon, it's hard to see past Pam. I found this trying to investigate what that candy bar is lol.

Answer: There does not appear to be a real candy bar by that name. The word is real, however. It refers to someone who is a rogue, a scoundrel, a thief, or an otherwise dubious character.
