SALT LAKE CITY — Puppies, pink, Michael Scarn ... those are a few of my favorite things.

And they all intersect in a Buzzfeed video released last week, where "The Office" actor Steve Carrell answers questions while holding some adorable, sleepy, cuddly puppies.

"You are just so ugly, aren't you?" Carrell asks sarcastically while staring lovingly into one of the puppy's eyes.

"I have never actually seen or been up close to a puppy," he says before breaking into laughter. "I am just so happy right now. Honestly, I feel like my blood pressure has dropped like 30 points."

Ours, too.

Watch the video here:

Carrell answers questions about his time on "The Office," interrupting himself often to whisper gently to the pups.

Although he doesn't watch the popular series, he notes that "there was an episode called the 'Dinner Party,'" — (oh, we know) — and it's one of his favorites.

"That was a really fun one to shoot. That was a hard one to get through. We were laughing a lot; we were cracking each other up," he said.

But he says fans of the show know it better than he does.

"I certainly have not seen all the episodes, and if I have — oh you're biting me!" he says to one puppy who, like me, was equally disappointed that Carrell apparently doesn't have each episode memorized.

Along with so much adorableness, we get to learn many tidbits in the video, such as who Carrell would have wanted to play if he wasn't Michael Scott.

"I think Dwight was a really fun character. I can't imagine anybody but Rainn Wilson playing Dwight. I can't imagine any of the other characters being played by anyone else. But I think that's a fun, crazy character to play," he says.
