So I'm watching The Office Season 5, and Jim and Pam are talking on IM. You only see the screen for a split second, but I noticed a vintage red and yellow symbol on Jim's desktop. It is Pokerstars! I can't believe it! This is a screenshot, taken from Season 5 Episode 1, the time is on the bottom left if you want to go see for yourselves. Evidently Jim Halpert grinds teh pokerz in his free time at work.

Also, if you are a degen like me and read into this even more, NBC's show Face the Ace is sponsored by Full Tilt Poker. Obviously since both Pokerstars and Full Tilt both appear on this network, NBC is obv conspiring to take over the online poker universe.

There's also a scene in Entourage where "E" plays at PokerStars in his office. One-tabling obv.

I have heard the internet on their computers actually works and in scenes where they are not involved but rather only in the background they just surf the net...Jim obv plays the pokers.

When they were watching The Office an image of the pokerstars logo was projected from the TV it hit their eyeballs and their brain said hey we know what that logo is it's a pokerstars one.

Reminds me of the Watchmen movie. Ozymandias had a folder on his desktop titled 'BOYS'.
