Remember how a casting breakdown for The Office had the show looking for “a woman described as ‘Scranton hot’†to play a new office manager? Well, I guess this is what they meant by “Scranton hotâ€: they’ve just hired model-turned-actress Cody Horn, from Rescue Me. Maybe I didn’t fully understand what they meant, never having been to Scranton, and it’s actually full of models? Or perhaps the term just meant “hotter than anyone who actually lives in Scranton.â€
In any case, there’s nothing wrong with pretty people being on TV! I just love that term, Scranton hot. It makes me feel bad about myself and I don’t even know why. As for who she’ll play, “not much is known about Horn’s character, except that she’ll be a pleasant and smart addition to Dunder Mifflin’s Scranton branch.†Look for her, as well as a handful of other new people, next season.
