The Office Season 5

"Put your heart out there like that, it's liable to just turn into this blackened carbon brick where it has barbecue sauce of shame and rage and two hot people with a perfect relationship would not understand that!"

 

They start next week.

 

i lost it when michael went down to yell at darrell

"Hey! Hey! Hey! You idiot"
"Start over."
"Sir...! I placed a bunch of golden tickets into five seperate boxes and somehow they all ended up at Blue Cross. How did this happen?"

 

Really enjoyable episode all around, the david michael dwight stuff was great!

 

only michael is metro enough, to think of shoe la la
it certainly gave everyone, including myself, a good laugh
the exchange with darrell, was surely best of the night
it has been a while since foreman was last in the light

always good seeing the CFO being summoned on set
the one liner by creed was nothing but net
could have done without the bickering of good ol' andy
I wish he go back to singing acapela in Jim's camry

overall, a surprisingly good episode this week
keep it up guys, keep us laughing till we weep
as always, i cannot wait for next week's air
when michael will meet the no nonsense, the new vice pres

 

"I DIDN'T ASK FOR A SHOW OF HANDS!"

Hilarious

Very good episode. Hopefully the show is back on track for a while.

 

Speak for yourself, I need the Horse Boat.

lmao wow

 

pam taking the notes of the meeting was great (along with "this is huge").


after catching up on about 8 episodes in the last 2 days, i've gotta say creed might be one of the best written characters ever. he gets about one line per episode and it's almost never wasted and not a classic line. they have to walk such a fine line between capturing the creepiness/weirdness/evilness of creed with every line without just forcing a ridiculous line. it's hard to do but they almost never fail.

michael: that's why carnations exist.

creed (in the background): that's not why.

the $3 bill, calling andy jim, making creed bratton disappear.


of all the episodes that i just caught up on, pam pausing and then blurting out "sales is like a box of chocolates" while trying to save the lecture might be my favorite moment. just so great. also jim telling dwight he won't write down "horse hunt" had me rolling.



and just for the record, 30 Rock does dominate The Office, but not because The Office isn't great, but because 30 Rock might be the best sitcom of all time. i'm not sure anything keeps up with it in terms of laughs per minute.

 

I agree... not only is it well written but its completely unpredictable.

 

30 Rock is fun, but doesn't really get too involved with the characters. 30 Rock just is more attempting joke after joke, while Office tries to throw a little drama/characterization in. I think both are pretty entertaining.

It's just a matter of what you prefer. The stuff Office does with it's characters and the connection it wants the viewers to make with them makes it more effective, IMO. I like a little more depth in the show.

 

IMO, 30 Rock is more of a typical tv show that gets a larger audience. I personally prefer comedy shows that are a little offbeat like The Office or Curb Your Enthusiasm. I think those are the 2 best comedies on TV. I enjoy the subtl humor in the Office to the apparent jokes in 30 Rock, but thats just me.

 

LOL

I haven't laughed this hard at an Office episode for a long time.

Horse Boat = LOL

Well done The Office writers. You still got it...

 

I was thinking the exact same thing...That plus this weeks South Park was classic too...

 

I hope you are joking
