Actress Angela Kinsey, of The Office fame, has come up with a new project that is helping her make the most of her time at home during the coronavirus pandemic. She is starring in a new video series for Advil Dual Action that was filmed in her backyard, because as she said, "Basically I feel like I can do all these things, but my body isn't quite with me."

"It was a very organic partnership for me because I'm a very hustle and bustle kind of mom. I'm always doing stuff," Kinsey said while joking that she acts younger than she is. 

The actress also confirmed that it was a COVID-19-safe production. "We had a very small crew. They had masks and, basically, it's just me kind of being an idiot in my backyard," Kinsey said with a chuckle.

Although The Office wrapped up seven years ago, it has maintained a cult-like following and spun off two very popular podcasts including one co-hosted by Kinsey and former co-star Jenna Fischer called Office Ladies, which they describe as the "ultimate Office rewatch podcast." 

When Kinsey was asked about a recent theory former co-star Brian Baumgartner uncovered in his podcast The Oral History of The Office, regarding two characters from the fictional workplace having a romantic relationship, she was visibly stunned by the assumption. But she did note, "There is a whole Reddit thread about Angela and Roy!" (Roy was a warehouse worker on the show played by actor David Denman.) She called this particular theory "crazy" and said the original show creator, Greg Daniels, quickly shut it down.
