May 28, 2025

This week on Office Ladies 6.0, the ladies interview “Office” writers Gene Stupnitsky and Lee Eisenberg! Gene and Lee are credited for writing great episodes like “Dinner Party”, “Scott’s Tots,” and “The Secret,” among many others. Gene and Lee share how they met and then got their jobs on “The Office”. They dive into writing an unexpected side of a character, like Angela Martin, going out of her way to get the attention of Charles Miner in the office, and learning subtext from Greg Daniels. They also talk about an episode they wanted to make, but the writing staff was never able to crack. This is such a fun episode to see the perspective of writing for “The Office”. So, whether you’ve had a worse birthday than Michael or not, enjoy this episode!
