<p>CNN Republican commentator Scott Jennings issued an invitation to &#8220;The Office&#8221; star John Krasinski during a Wednesday evening broadcast, saying that he&#8217;d been compared to Krasinski&#8217;s character Jim Halpert and suggesting that they get together and compare notes.</p>
<p>Krasinski, as Halpert, garnered a reputation throughout the popular series&#8217; run for repeatedly breaking the fourth wall — blurring the line between the performers and the audience — by looking straight at the camera when he reacted to the actions of his costars. Jennings, who often appears on &#8220;CNN NewsNight&#8221; with anchor Abby Phillip, has a habit of doing the same.</p>
<p>On Wednesday&#8217;s show, Phillip strayed from the politics of the day and asked her panel about their dream &#8220;celebrity encounters&#8221; — and Jennings suggested a confab between himself and Krasinski.</p>
<p>&#8220;It&#8217;s been suggested to me by the internet that I get some inspiration from Jim Halpert during my CNN appearances,&#8221; Jennings captioned the video clip he shared. &#8220;@johnkrasinski, I&#8217;m very coachable if you want to come on and show me how it&#8217;s done.&#8221;</p>

<p>Jennings noted that &#8220;The Office&#8221; was a favorite show of his, and suggested that perhaps he and Krasinski could get together and &#8220;discuss the correct way to look into a camera when something is happening that you think is wild. So anyway, John, if you want to come on someday we can discuss this, ah, let&#8217;s do it. It would be pretty funny.&#8221;</p>
<p>Throughout his comments, Jennings paused from time to time to give an exaggerated look toward the camera — each time prompting laughs from around the table.</p>
<p>&#8220;This is very good,&#8221; Phillip conceded.</p>
<p>Vice President JD Vance also rated a Jim Halpert comparison during his debate with Governor Tim Walz (D-MN), as he often looked at the camera when reacting to the answers Walz was giving to the moderators&#8217; questions.</p>
