Get ready for bonus footage from SNL's Hobbit Office sketch that will make you wish this thing were an actual TV show -- even more than you did before.

The just-released new scenes, which you're seeing first on Mashable, were not shown when the original sketch aired in Dec. 2014. But boy, they're fun.

The extra peeks at Kate McKinnon and Martin Freeman's office flirtation particularly nail the playfulness that made Jim and Pam one of the best TV couples of all time.

Also, the bonus scenes give some extra time with fish-eating Taran Killam -- who, by the way, actually consumed a real fish for that moment.

That nugget of knowledge comes courtesy of this week's highlight video, in which Bobby Moynihan and writers Streeter Seidell and Mikey Day open up about making the unforgettable sketch.

You can watch that below.

Remember to come back to Mashable on Mondays for more SNL bonus material, leading up to the premiere of the new season on Oct. 3.
