The Office Season Premiere

at the beginning, Jim says he paid $4 and $7 for his Dwight costume .. .a total of $11. Later on in the episode, Angela made the snide comment to kevin about adding hours ... 4 + 7 = 11.

Creed was awesome in this episode!

 

best episode of the year!

 

I wonder if Jim submitted the costume as an expense?

 

I tried to put that together, but this was payroll hours. Maybe there is more to come or maybe this is the writes inside joke.

 

there was that, and there was also "we're at Threat Level Midnight!" (remember Agent Michael Scarn?)


on another note, the last 3 eps of the season are the next 3 Thursdays...and they're all long. ~45 mins, ~45 mins, ~1 hr for the finale

 

anyone watch the supersized episode tonight?

i had the same feeling as watching last weeks, good not great.

 

I thought it fell flat in a few places (Michael at the beginning ragging on Phylis was not funny at all), but there was some awesome moments. Creed once again provides the biggest laugh, Dwight had some very nice lines, and Michael's "Wizard of Oz" speech at the end was inspired (especially when he said to give Kelly a brain).

 

I agree lots on peaks and valleys in this one but still some great moments, does anyone have a screen cap of the 'Pervert' sketch

 

^ I can't find the screen shot but you can get a T-Shirt

Thanks, damn that didn't take them very long to get it on a t-shirt

 

this was like the one 2 ep's ago to me.. disjoint. Still pretty funny, and will likely get funnier as i see it more. But i still loved last week's (product recall)

 

I thought it was a really good episode. Michael putting his finger out of his fly was classic. Dwight was epic as well.

It saddens me to see Michael and Jan go down. His story of having to wear a school girl outfit was great. Man, she is freaky naughty...we need MORE Jan!!

 

Did anyone else notice Michael losing his finger-boner when Toby walked into the room? He really doesn't like him.

 

I thought the idea of him ragging on Phylis was hilarious, but it went on a bit too long.

 

There's a couple pics on officetally:

There are few bigger proponents of Jan and Michael than myself, but I'm kind of shocked how freaky they've gone with Jan in just a few episodes. They're probably not done with those two, but it seems like they've taken her too far, and left themselves without a whole lot of room to advance her character. And I prefer when she played straight-man to Michael's zaniness, than now when she's even crazier than he is.

But I agree that we do need more Jan. She's just too hot to be left on the shelf.

 

The Office may go to an hour long!

The past two episodes were awesome...

Creed: I’m a pretty normal guy. I do one weird thing. I like to go in women’s room for number 2.

Dwight: I grew up on a farm. I have seen animals having sex in every position imaginable. Goat on chicken. Chicken on goat. Couple of chickens doing a goat. Couple of pigs watching…

Too many quotable lines and just simply a funny show...Now Jan getting dumped is pretty amazing and of course doing it by leaving a message...classic...can't wait...

 

My favorite Dwight quotes of the night:

Dwight: Due to a recent incident involving Phyllis, a man, a map, and his penis, I think you know what I’m referring to, Michael has authorized me to form an emergency, anti-flashing, task force.

Dwight: I know what you’re thinking. Won’t that just shed more light on the penises. But that is a risk we have to take. Pam, you can draw, kind of, why don’t you work with Phallus on drawing a picture of the exposer that I can post around the community.
Pam: Phallus?
Dwight: Phyllis, sorry. I’ve got penises on the brain.
