Executive producer of The Office discusses Will Ferrell
Paul Lieberstein, executive producer of The Office and the actor who plays the HR guy, Toby, had this to say about bringing Will Ferrell on for a few episodes…
We found Steve Carell when he was nothing but a movie star and we turned him into a television star. We are proud to continue The Office’s tradition of discovering famous talent, and we hope that once America gets a good look at Will, they’ll see what we see, tremendous raw sexuality.
Indeed.

Oh my word, this made my day. Will Ferrell on The Office. Sublime.
I just hope they don’t have Will be another Todd Packer. That character disgusts me.
Oh please, no.
