The Alliance - S1-E4

Trivia: The newsletter about the 80's party says "hopefully you will find a lot of useless information contained herein that will help you do your job better, faster, and quicker and cheaper and happier."

It's really just a prop to fill some space and sorta look like a newsletter without really being much of a newsletter at all."

Trivia: When Michael is in Mr. Figaro's office, there's a flyer for Terry's Diner. This is a real diner located near Scranton (Moosic, PA) and the flyer has the diner's actual phone number (minus the 570 area code). It could also be a clue that Michael's 2nd job isn't in Scranton.
