Apr 30, (THAINDIAN NEWS) American film and television actress Amy Pietz has been chosen to play the role of a bar manager in the comedy television show “The Office”. It has been reported that the actress will feature on a number of episodes of the comedy series. Amy Pietz, who is better known for her stint in the NBC show “Caroline in the City”, will play a bar manager named Donna in “The Office”, this time too on NBC.
“The Office” has been featuring on NBC since 2005 and is an immensely popular sitcom on the channel. With Amy Pietz comes another star to the show which essentially deals with the regular lives of office employees. The 41 year old actress had been nominated for a Screen Actors Guild award in the year 1999 and will hopefully add to the level of popularity of the show, say critics.
In the multiple episodes that the actress will be seen in, Michael Scott, the manager of the office where all the action takes place in the sitcom, will try to attract the attention of Donna, the character to be enacted by Amy Pietz. The Thursday episode of “The Office” featured the part where Michael Scott is seen flirting with Donna much to the chagrin of the other colleagues in his office. The episode though ended on a good note for the office manager who managed to steal a kiss from the bar manager after he chased her down to a parking area.
Amy Pietz will now be a part of the cast of “The Office” for some time now and will share screen space with the likes of Steve Carell, Rainn Wilson, John Krasinski and Jenna Fischer.
