Brian Baumgartner (BBBaumgartner) still thinks this TheOffice chili scene is 'very sad.'
When Brian Baumgartner filmed the “Kevin’s famous chili” scene on “The Office” over a decade ago, he hadn’t expected it to become the pop culture phenomenon that it still is today.
After “The Office” wrapped up its nine-season run on NBC in 2013, Baumgartner said, he “consciously did some distancing and thought, OK, now it’s on to other things and let’s do other things.” However, his mindset changed as the comedy continued to gain fans in subsequent years thanks to reruns and streaming.That includes chili. He has developed a serious passion for chili, so much so that on Sept. 13 he released “Seriously Good Chili Cookbook: 177 of the Best Recipes in the World.
He remembered watching it back immediately afterward, “thinking, ‘Please let us, please let us have it, please let us have it,’ as chili is literally dripping off of my coat and my hand. And the wardrobe dressers are, like, pulling my jacket off of me. And them deciding that, yes, we got it, and being very happy about that.”
