Fischer remembered the last phases of the audition process for Pam and Jim on NPR’s Fresh Air, when the producers paired the many possible Pams and Jims (four of each) together to judge their compatibility. When Fischer ended her part with Krasinski, he informed her that she was his favorite Pam, and she responded by saying that he was her favorite Jim.

Jenna Fischer Splitting Up Together
She appeared as Lena in the American sitcom Splitting Up Together. The show follows what happens when a couple’s marriage is rekindled after their divorce. The couple has three children who reside in the house with one of the parents on alternate weeks, while the other parent lives as a single person in the garage apartment at the back of the house. The “single” partner who lives in the garage is free to date because he or she has no duties in the house or for the children.
The “parent” partner has complete control over the house and household. Each week, the parents learn a bit more about what they are lacking in their parenting and “romantic” lives, and as a result, they become better parents and love partners. Often, the understanding they get allows them to see why their partner was unhappy in the marriage, allowing them to grow as individuals. This enhanced version of themselves becomes marginally more appealing to their ex-spouse, making a complete divorce appear less likely.

Nancy Santiani, the precinct’s new captain, takes over in the second season and demotes Broderick to Senior Detective. Detectives Billy Soto and Meredith Bose join forces, but Frankie Pulaski leaves owing to a lack of seniority. The tone of the series shifts, with a focus on the triangle involving Laura, Jake, and Tony.
