If you are a fan of The Office, you know "The Dinner Party" is the pièce de résistance. According to co-writer Gene Stupnitsky, the cast and network recognized the script's brilliance from the beginning. "Most scripts get rewritten, and I think this was the only one ever done that didn't," Stupnitsky said. The cast recalled laughing hysterically during the first read-through. Co-writer Lee Eisenberg added, "There's nothing more satisfying than having Steve Carell barely able to get through his lines."
