John Krasinski’s Muppet-like face (yes, second time today I’ve compared a face to a Muppet) makes him perfect for the close-up reaction shots we need to navigate the absurdity of The Office.

So Jim’s many looks, ranging from smugness to bewilderment, are a natural for the “Supercut” trend – comprehensive montages from TV shows based on a theme and set (usually) to music from the 1990s. Here are two “faces of Jim Halpert” montages:
