    The Holly stuff just dragged the show down. Now the writers are free to focus on whatever the hell they want. No restrictions.

    I loved the random Creed sighting on the roof with his toy helicopter. Funnier still that Jim didn't seem surprised to see him at all.

    Also loved Andy's line about needing a room-clearing fart from Phyllis.

    Jim's escape was hilarious. I hadn't laughed that hard watching The Office in a while.

    Thursday's episode was actually pretty funny but overall it feels like it is dying.

    I think the show is better now after Michael Scott left.

    Andy is really picking it up. Dwight has been gold too but that not new.

    Better than last season. Maybe the last 2 years if I remember correctly.

    Dwight is suppose to get his own spin off show.

    I dunno, it's still pretty good, but it feels a little weird now. First half of the season it felt like the Andy show. They were really trying to play him up..and now, I dunno. It still has it's moments but is nothing like the glory days. Pam and Jim are there but not. All the "mystery" to Creed is gone and he's just a plain idiot now. Erin has been trying too hard to woo Andy and has lost some of her cuteness imo. Dwight is still Dwight, so that's good.

    I definitely think it's running out of gas. Thought I would never say this cause I hated the show when it first aired, but Parks and Rec is better. I've fallen in love with that show this season and the episode 2 weeks ago where April and Andy got all those tests done in the Hospital...haven't laughed that hard from a tv show in a long time.

    It was doing OK for a while but the show is slowing down. I doubt a Dwight spinoff would be successful.

    Yup, outside of The Office fans, I doubt a lot of people would enjoy it.

    As far as this season goes, it's alright.

    It's still has it's moments, but I wish they had more Robert California. They should really do more with his character, I think.

    It's still better than 90% of the crap on tv but obviously not as good as it once was. If you want great comedy watch curb ur enthusiasm. That show is still strong and it has 8 completed seasons.
