The Office 11/16 SPOILERS

I think this episode was even funnier than last season's finale. Someone give Ed Helms an Emmy now.

 

How about goofy Kelly getting caught up with Jim by giving him the latest celebrity couple news?

 

I laughed throughout this entire episode. Usually, there are scenes I think are funny, but not laugh out loud. This entire episode was laugh-out-loud funny.

 

Was Jim playing a mindgame with Pam when he said he was seeing somebody? Or should we assume he was talking about the girl from Stamford?

 

I'm sure he means Karen, but it might be just as much "I need Pam to think that I've moved on so that I can convince myself that I've moved on" as anything else. Of course, Filipelli is ssssssmmmmmmokin', so it's not like he's not attracted.

 

I think he is 1. Trying to get her to back off a little bit and act like everything is cool now that he is back, despite the fact that she denied him last season; and B. Trying to make her a little jealous and hurt her feelings just like she hurt his.

Hopefully for Jim it ends in a three-way.

 

My two favorite parts of the episode were:
1. When Jim is staring at Dwight's forehead while he is talking to him like it is no big deal.
2. When Dwight and Andy just keep shaking hands because neither one of them will break a handshake.

 

fixed.

YOU WILL NOT COME TOGETHER AS ONE AND REVENGE US BECAUSE YOU SUCK!

 

I'd like to congratulate NBC on FINALLY putting together a solid Thursday night comedy lineup again. I laughed my ass off for two straight hours. That hasn't happened since Seinfeld departed.

Somebody mentioned an Emmy for Ed Helms. Maybe. But not before a couple go to Rainn Wilson. Carrell comes close with Michael Scott, but there's not a funnier character on TV than Dwight Schrute.

"MEET MY LINE OF SIGHT, JIM! MEET MY LINE OF SIGHT."

 

When they add Scrubs to the lineup, it will be a true comedy lineup. Going against Grey's will be hard, but so many people have a DVR or Tivo these days, I don't think that should worry TV execs at all.

 

Or, for that matter, Michael screwing up again by firing a guy who was trying to quit and costing the company severence pay in the process.

Or the Ed Helms character telling Dwight's secret girlfriend she has a nice smile.

 

Well then 1985 must have a time machine because my car is an 87.


I still think that Stanley is the best straight man on television. "I have sat down from her smelly perfumes for years and I haven't said a word."
