[Bryan]

Anyone know if The Office starts tonight? NBC.com doesn't have any info on it.

Football tonight for dinner. McCain for desert.

The Office starts tonight and I'm pretty excited about it.

[bill s preston esq]

The Office starts tonight and I'm pretty excited about it.

Me too. In fact, I'm giddy.

[Beer Engineer]

Yup. Tonight.

[bill s preston esq]

And it's an hour long.

[J Chiz]

Me too. In fact, I'm giddy.

What's it supposed to be about? I can vagely remember how the last episode ended. I know Jim was going to propose to Pam, but Andy stole his thunder. What else happened?

The new HR chick is there and Michael is in love w/ her. Jan is preggo and Michael wants to be the 'daddy'.

[bill s preston esq]

Jan is pregnant.......the new HR person likes Michael..........Pam and Jim's relationship may be starting the decline.........Pam was heading to art school iirc

[haus]

Pam was heading to art school iirc

I think that was just for 3 months, so she'll be back in the office now.

[Brad_Lee]

Don't forget, Angela and Dwight were getting it on in the office at the very end of the last episode...right after she was engaged with Andy.

[Beer Engineer]

Please don't forget that the new HR chick believes that Kevin is retarded. I believe that was the single funniest running gag in that last episode.

[Beer Engineer]

Also, Ryan (the temp, fire starter, etc.) was arrested for fraud.

[jwneeter]

Please don't forget that the new HR chick believes that Kevin is retarded. I believe that was the single funniest running gag in that last episode.

Absolutely! I just hope they keep the gag going for a while.

[Bmac]

Please don't forget that the new HR chick believes that Kevin is retarded. I believe that was the single funniest running gag in that last episode.

I enjoyed that part the most in that episode. "Yeah I have a car."

[dolphy]

Please don't forget that the new HR chick believes that Kevin is retarded. I believe that was the single funniest running gag in that last episode.


Yeah that was funny. Please see the "Every that's what she said" thread for a good laugh

[Beer Engineer]

FYI, almost the entire cast of the Office is in the movie License to Wed. It is still a terrible movie.

[bill s preston esq]

Please don't forget that the new HR chick believes that Kevin is retarded. I believe that was the single funniest running gag in that last episode.

How could I forget that? I watched part of the last episode last week. That was the funniest part of the whole deal.

[Bryan]

"Would you like an M&M? I keep them over here so people don't steal them".

"I like pie"

This thread will be huge in a few months.

This thread will be huge in a few months.

Death should be behind Linehan. Let me find one for you.

[Bryan]

So who's your favorite "supporting character" in the show (not Michael, Jim, Pam or Dwight)?

I say Creed.

[Beer Engineer]

This scene is from the end of the 2nd to last episode of last season. One of my favorites.

Mr. Andy Bernard is the correct answer

[Bryan]

Kevin

Scrantonicity forever.

[dolphy]

Mr. Andy Bernard is the correct answer

Yes, Andy Bernard it is for me too.
Followed in order by Creed, Kevin, Stanley, and Todd Packer.

[dolphy]

Scrantonicity forever.


Scrantonicity 2 not Scrantonicity 1.

[Bryan]

Todd Packer.

I forgot about Packer...awesome.

[Spoon]

Has anyone heard much about this Office spin off I keep hearing about? I'm really curious if it will be as good.

[Beer Engineer]

Yes, Andy Bernard it is for me too.

Andy Bernard. Damn, I forgot about him. He is pretty great. Nard Dog!!

Hey Tuna, beer me that water.

Heh. Ryan is now Pam.

First he was Jim, then Jan...I hope he becomes Creed next.

True.

I do like The Office.

Question: Favorite character?

Tough question.

I'd have to go with the easy choice and say Michael. His malaprops and tactlessness are a thing of beauty.

[bill s preston esq]

True.

I do like The Office.

Question: Favorite character?

For hotness, I like Pam.

Overall.....Dwight is the sexy pick but I like the dude who used to work in Scranton.....totally blanking on his name....Andy?

I'm in love with Jim, but I like all the others but michael...he annoys me sooooo much.

Yah. Not Scranton.

You could have been in rap videos with that thing.

[B.A.]

Good to see that Ryan is still a giant douche.

And what I said about Stanley earlier is still correct.

[Uncle Tony Perkis]

No Office this week because of the debate. Don't want to talk about why it is necessary to have it on every local channel therefore cancelling something more people would watch, but it's out there. Just thought the loyal followers of Michael and the Scranton gang would like to know. I'll be watching playoff baseball instead.

I would assume they've done their research and have discovered that they'll get better ratings showing the debate, even though they are going up against other stations. Probably because there are more people that care about the election than there are fans of the Office.

I don't know, man, it's comedy Thursday on NBC!! It's gold, Jerry! Gold!

When I discovered youtube I didn't work for five days.

[B.A.]

The theme song still puts a smile on my wife's face. Mine, too.

It's definitely her favorite show.

[Gattuso06]

Great episode. God bless the writers.

[Johnny Utah]

Let me start by saying I've never seen the show...

I have a hipster-ish buddy who swears the American version is a travesty compared to the original British one. He likes it but keeps telling me to watch the old ones on DVD.

Whatevs. The British one is, what, like 30 episodes?

We're going on season 5 with the American one.

(I want to see the British one but haven't yet...)

[Gattuso06]

I watch both and I prefer the American version. To each his own.

[B.A.]

The original BBC version is twelve episodes and a Christmas special.

And it is awesome as all get out.

[beercats2000]

I missed it.


I missed it all.

It was alright. Don't beat yourself up.

Yea. I don't know what that is all about.

[dolphy]

I missed the first five minutes, but other than that the episode was okay at best. I kind of miss Toby, well I miss how bad Michael used to make fun of him.

[J Chiz]

I actually thought this was one of the funnier episodes in a long time.

Let's get ethical!! Ethical!!

[Beer Engineer]

Yeah, all the hating on Toby was pretty good. I do think that Jim is a much funnier character without Pam in the mix. I really wish they would have carried the "retarded" Kevin for a few more episodes.

[J Chiz]

I do think that Jim is a much funnier character without Pam in the mix.

I agree with this. It must be why I thought the episode was so funny. There wasn't as much focus on their relationship. It gets old after awhile.

[mjonns]

Yea. I don't know what that is all about.
she could have been shooting movies while they were filming. or not. The office is funny shit.

[flash92]

Supply discounts AND steak coupons!

That's too good to pass up, especially in this tough economy.

I need some Pam.

Well...there's your Pam.

Michael Scott: Now Jim is going to be the client, Dwight you are going to have to sell to him without being [reading Dwight's performance review] aggressive, hostile or difficult. Let's go!
Dwight Schrute: Alright. Fine. [picks up phone] Brring, bring.
Jim Halpert: [picks up] Hello?
Dwight Schrute: Hello this is Dwight Schrute from the Dunder Mifflin Paper Company.
Jim Halpert: Well that's great because I need paper.
Dwight Schrute: Excellent then you are in luck because we a limited time offer only on everything!
Jim Halpert: Wow this is my lucky day.
Michael Scott: [whispering to Dwight] Ask him his name.
Dwight Schrute: What is your name, sir?
Jim Halpert: I am Bill Butlicker.
Dwight Schrute: Really, that's your real name?
Jim Halpert: How dare you? My family built this country by the way!
Michael Scott: Be respectful, Dwight. Please.
Dwight Schrute: Yes, Michael.
Jim Halpert: Could you hold on one second that's my other line. Hello? [laughing] Yeah I'm just on the phone with this stupid salesman. He's so dumb. Probably just gonna keep him on the line forever and not buy anything.
Michael Scott: [after Dwight looks over at him] It's up to you to change his mind.
Jim Halpert: Sorry that was a.. family emergency.
Dwight Schrute: Oh no, what's wrong.
Jim Halpert: You know what? That's private.
Michael Scott: Boundaries, Dwight! Come on!
Dwight Schrute: I'm sorry Mr. Butlicker. As I was saying, we are having--
Jim Halpert: I'm sorry you're going to have to speak up a little bit louder I'm hard of hearing.
Michael Scott: He's hard of-- He's an old man.
Dwight Schrute: As I was saying, right now--
Jim Halpert: You're gonna have talk louder.
Dwight Schrute: Ok. Our prices have never been lower--
Jim Halpert: Son you have to talk louder.
Dwight Schrute: Never been lower!--
Jim Halpert: LOUDER, SON!
Dwight Schrute: BUTLICKER! OUR PRICES HAVE NEVER BEEN LOWER!--
Michael Scott: Stop it! [whispering] That is totally inappropriate! You never yell at the client! You never yell at the client.
Jim Halpert: Now you listen to me, sir.
Michael Scott: Here we go.
Jim Halpert: The three words I would describe you as is aggressive, hostile and definitely difficult! I'm irate right now!
Dwight Schrute: Mr. Butlicker!-- I have to put you on with my boss.
Michael Scott: Hello this is Michael Scott, regional manager.
Jim Halpert: Well this is William M. Butlicker.
Michael Scott: Hello Mr. Butlicker, how may we help you?
Jim Halpert: Michael I like the sound of your voice. You know what I'm going to do? I'm going to buy one million dollars worth of paper products today.
Michael Scott: [covering mic] See how it's done? Thank you very much sir I don't think you'll regret it.
Dwight Schrute: You are the master!
Jim Halpert: There is one condition, Michael. You have to fire the salesman that treated me so terribly.
Dwight Schrute: Don't do it Michael.
Michael Scott: It's a million dollar sale...

Awesome episode,

The plot line of Pam being torn between being with Jim and her art career is lame. I hope they move off of it fast. Otherwise, great episode, and yeah the bluetooth stuff (particularly with Dwight) was top notch.

So my wife and I signed up for Netflix and we were trying to watch movies in the "watch now" tab. Well all the movies in there are outdated so we started watching the office at episode 1. I forgot how funny this show was right when it came out.

In the first episode Michael has Jan in his office with some dude on speaker phone. The guy on speaker doesn't know that Jan is there and starts talking about her saying, "Does the curtains match the carpet". The Michael hangs up on him. I was rolling.

I would think it hard to stand out with a character that was meant to be mousy, quiet and picked upon. Having her get engaged to Jim was not a great idea for her character arc, no question.

I am just pissed you didn't tell me to go to hell or eat your balls or something when I mocked you. (kicks dirt and looks down, with a sad lonely look on his face)

Yeah, I get that that is how her character is supposed to be. She did a radio interview talking about how she got the role by shrugging and giving one word answers in her interview with the casting directors. I just think that there are quite a few other actors on the show that have that very bland personalities like Oscar and Stanley and Phyllis, and they still manage to have these moments that make me laugh out loud.

Oh, also, Eat my cack roll, beetch.

I have never seen the British version of the Office, so I wonder how much that secretary role she plays has been Americanized.

You have convinced me that Pam is boring, because when you listed those above characters they have all entertained me much more over time and it just hit me. Clarity is a bitch.

It's finally back on tonight. Andy Vs. Dwight duel to the death.

they need to throw creed more into the overall story mix

i agree.

[Spoon]

I have heard there is a spin off in works. It makes me wonder who will be the main focus....so many possibilities.

[wiggly]

Pam is probably my least favorite character on the show. Her personality is totally flat and she never makes me laugh. I like that she's pretty in a non-glamorous way though.

Pam is probably one of the most beautiful women on television these days. Talk about your GND. There she is.

The balloons and party decorations that Dwight worked on just cracked me up every time he was on screen, the learning the Pledge of Allegiance to Old McDonald and the mnemonic scene with all of the names...awesome.

It's kind of slimy for them to pimp their new show between episodes of one of their bigger shows? I don't think so.

I believe they call that smart programming. Nothing slimy about it.

I had high hopes of it and really like her. However, after seeing the previews I do not think it will last very long.

It looks awful. Don't find her funny in the least by herself (she's a good sidekick, not lead).

[Cheezy E]

They said it has the exact same formula as The Office but it's not as smart and there aren't enough "straight men" to give it heart, like Pam and Jim in The Office.

[Bryan]

Anyone know where the Office is "going" with Michael branching out?

[Cheezy E]

I'm guessing they will get a couple more episode out of him and Pam trying to start their own business, then Michael will end up back in his old job and Pam will end up as a salesperson.

I can buy that. I also think Jim is on his way out...maybe to appearances once in a while, but not a regular.

[Spoon]

I'm willing to bet it has to do with the spinoff. Not sure how...maybe they form the company and them Michael and Pam go back and leave the new show to Ryan...

[Cheezy E]

No way, Jim is a huge part of the show. They won't get rid of him willingly.

What if he needs to branch out to do movies? It worked out well for Shelly Long, David Caruso and Julianna Margulies.

This is what I'm thinking.

He already did one movie and it bombed miserably. Hopefully he's smart enough to keep riding the gravy train until it crashes. Although all of them will make millions in syndication.

[Cheezy E]

Steve Carrell has a pretty thriving movie career and he still does the show. If Jim leaves he is a shit stain.

More Kevin. I like this so far.

Parks & Recreation - not a fan. It was annoying, although the hot chick from the office was in it. that made it a little better but not worth watching again.

I'm thinking we just saw some foreshadowing. I bet Michael hears Charles say something incriminating through the duct work then uses that info to get his job back.
