About halfway through the season, Pam gives birth to Phillip Halpert. As the shooting of the documentary comes to a close, Pam seems happy with her life in Scranton with Jim, Cece, and Philip. Jim, however, seems unhappy at the prospect of a calm and uneventful life. Before the season began, Jim's old college friend started a sports marketing business in Philadelphia based on a concept Jim had while they were in college, Athlead.

When fans later learned that the season 8 plot of Fischer's on-screen marriage to Jim Halpert would involve a second pregnancy, many assumed that the producers decided to run the pregnancy story after they learned that Fischer was pregnant in real life.
However, it was later confirmed that the writers had planned the plot twist before they learned that Fischer was pregnant and expecting a baby. Pam Beesly gave birth to her first child in the two-part season 6 episode of The Office titled 'The Delivery.
Jim did not hide his disapproval when the male lactation specialist touched Pam as he tried to show her how to properly breastfeed her baby. While fans felt sad that Pam was struggling , others realized that the male actor who played the role of the lactation specialist was in fact Fischer's real-life husband, Lee Kirk.
The wedding, which took place in Malibu, was attended by many of their Office co-stars. They have two children, Weston and Harper. According to Ranker , some fans claimed there was plenty of evidence that Jim was a villain and cheated on Pam. A popular fan theory insists that the documentary crew helped Jim cover up his cheating because the producers wanted to focus only on the storyline that involved his swoon-worthy relationship with Pam.
According to the fan theory, Jim admitted he cheated on Pam during the last episode of The Office titled 'Finale. He then addressed the question evasively and declared that whatever problems existed between them was his fault.
He added that the film editors treated Pam unfairly by showing him in a better light. Another popular fan theory on Reddit claims that Pam might have cheated on Jim with one of the members of the documentary crew when Jim was acting like a jerk , the boom mic operator Brian.
Brian entered into the shot for the first time when he came forward to comfort Pam as she cried following an argument with Jim during the season 9 episode of the show titled 'Customer Loyalty.
Brian's intervention happened at a time that Pam and Jim's marriage relationship was under strain after he started working part-time in Philadelphia. Many fans thought that there appeared to be an emotional connection between Pam and Brian and felt convinced that the show purposefully hinted that Pam might have been cheating on Jim with Brian. After The Office ended in , Krasinski moved on to other projects. More notably, he wrote, directed, and co-starred with his wife Emily Blunt in the horror movie, A Quiet Place.
The movie is about a family forced to live in silence to avoid being detected by creatures that hunt by sound. In the swoon-worthy scene from season 2, Jim and Pam cutely shared headphones. However, while Jim and Pam shared headphones as a sweet gesture of their emerging romantic connection, Lee and Evelyn shared headphones to avoid being detected.
People just absolutely did not like that. They were bothered that there might be some triangle that Pam and Jim would be involved in and even more insulted that we thought they might believe that. Greg absolutely turned on a dime after that and we pivoted away, I think pretty skillfully given how quickly we had to do that. It involved decently sized edits to the next two episodes, if I recall. And pivot they did. Jim and Pam do end up together, with that iconic note from Season 2 making an emotional return, but if you felt severe anxiety that the two might not make it, that was a remnant from a cancelled storyline.
And I think they made the right call here—some strife in the relationship did make things interesting, but bringing Brian in as a third wheel was a bridge too far.
