It's amazing that Carell, John Krasinski, Jenna Fischer, Rainn Wilson, Ed Helms, and Melora Hardin were able to get any usable footage to piece together during the "Dinner Party" episode. There are plenty of bloopers from the legendary season 4 episode, which was shot almost entirely out of the office in Michael and Jan's condo.
Carell breaks character a handful of times in the episode, but his best blooper, as can be seen on Reddit, comes when he's showing Jim and Pam his plasma screen TV. Michael had mentioned wanting a plasma TV several times throughout The Office, so when we got to see the one he eventually bought, it was shocking, to say the least. The screen is less than two feet wide, but he still has it on an adjustable wall mount.
When showing off the TV to Jim and Pam, Michael notes that it has speakers on either side and that when he needs to, he can push it back closer to the wall. When he demonstrates, the TV moves back about an inch, causing Carell, Krasinski, Fischer, and Hardin to absolutely lose it. The laughter that follows is incredibly contagious as Carell can barely keep it together. In a high-pitched squeal, the actor apologizes to the crew and continues to laugh as he goes to reset the TV for the next shot. It's easily Carell's best character break, especially given the iconic episode it took place in.
