OMG... this is so not right (The Office related)!!!

[Heidict]

I love this show, my favorite comedy on TV. I can't wait for Pam and Jim to finally get back together.

 

[Desiree]

All this Pam/Jim/Karen tension is driving me mad! Why oh why won't they FINALLY put Pam and Jim together! They are so adorable!

I've not seen the American version, but the original British version is probably the funniest thing ever. If you like the US version, I'd recommend you get the British one too.

I recently started watching the US version and I love it, so I started Tivo'ing the British version. I've seen about 4 episodes so far and I've been underwhelmed. I love dry humor and I watch lots of shows on BBCAmerica, but the episodes I've seen so far just haven't been very funny. To each their own, I guess.

I didn't notice the braid in Michael's hair last night, I've got to go back and check that out on our big screen TV, that's just too funny.

As awkward as Dwight was with Pam, I do think we saw another side to him. I was just waiting for Angela to walk out and see them, but thankfully that didn't happen.

"I'm going to call a petting zoo." Angela rocks!

Jan creeps me out!

 

[MosMom]

I loved "How hard is it to throw a luau? All you need is some grass skirts, pineapple, poi, tiki torches, suckling pig...fire dancers. That's all you need" LOL

 

[KristiKelly]

Jan creeps me out!

So far she hasn't added anything to the show.

 

[Daxx]

Nobody mentioned the show's opening w/the meeting and Dwight w/the tape recorder recording everything for Michael. Then, Jim says "Dwight, why are you taking your pants off?" "Dwight, why are you totally naked?" and they all went on from there!!!! Too funny!!!!

I love this show and was hysterical over Michael's "braid"!

"At Sandals, when you say 'hey mon', everyone says 'hey mon' back!"

I loved how Michael was playing "hot, hot, hot" on the steel drum and all he knew was the "hot, hot, hot" part! Then, in the warehouse, one of the guys ran it over w/the forklift!!!!!

My favorite show opening, by far, was the one where Jim was in the Connecticut office and took some of Dwight's stationery and would fax messages to Dwight from "Future Dwight" w/messages like "Today, at 8:10, someone is going to poison the coffee" and then, after Dwight gets the fax, he sees the one accounting guy w/the coffee and dives to knock the coffee out of the guy's hands!

Oh I could care less about Jim/Pam/Karen now that we have Michael and Jan. I'm laughing out loud thinking of it.

Steve Carrell is a genius. He outdid himself last night - that was a freaking Oscar-worthy performance! Thinking he was busted and then getting lucky ... only he could have pulled that off.

I'm another fan of the British Office. I've rented the series twice. I always miss stuff because I'm not used to the dialect, and that series, like this one, moves sooooo fast. One or 2 word phrases thrown in that just cause you to pee your pants! It's hard to catch it all.

 

[OK!]

I loved "How hard is it to throw a luau? All you need is some grass skirts, pineapple, poi, tiki torches, suckling pig...fire dancers. That's all you need" LOL

"I called every grocery store in Scranton, and nobody sells whole pigs."
"Did you try the petting zoo?"



I just got done watching last night's episode--this has to be one of my favorites ever, right up there with "The Injury."

 

[AuntieM03]

I've watched a few episodes, but I don't really get it. I think part of my problem is the way it is shot. It looks cheap to me and it takes me out of the story when they speak directly to the camera. I do think there are some humorous moments but overall I just don't find it that funny. On the other hand I am not crazy about the way they shoot Friday Night Lights either but I got sucked in enough that I can forgive the spastic camera.

Oh, I'm so jaded, having grown up in Scranton. We no longer have a petting zoo. You can always get a whole pig when you want one. Maybe not from a grocery store, but my DH's uncle and some of his cousins get them every summer for their pig roasts.

See, I'm jaded.

I love that Michael and Jan are together but trying to hide things and then he emails everyone in packaging! I love that he wouldn't admit to dating his superior to HR. What's his name? Toby?

 

[carone0318]

I think my favorite episode was when Jim took all of Dwight's stuff and loaded it into the vending machine (including his walet) so he couldn't get his stuff back. Dwight says, "where's my wallet" and Jim says something like "I think it is C4." Then someone comes in and buys his stapler or whatever. Classic.

Also love the episode with the script Michael wrote and then they held a meeting and all read the parts while Michael was at a business meeting at the only logical place to hold a meeting - Chili's, with Tim Meadows - oh this is the episode that Michael hooks up with Jan.

Last one - office olympics, need we say more.

 

[OK!]

I LOVE when Michael interacts with or talks about Toby--

(from Conflict Resolution) "There are dozens of old complaints in here. Cold cases, like the show, and Toby is the lazy detective who has decided that these armed robberies and rapes and murder-suicides are not important enough to solve. Well, you know what? I have a problem with that and I am going to open up these cases before Toby can kill or rape another person."

...and one from this last episode:

Toby: "Nine different people emailed me that photo, including my ex-wife, and we don't even talk."
Michael: "Well, maybe it's just the ice-breaker you need."

have you been able to rent the extras disc? if you can have haven't, rent it. omg, david brent's music video is worth the price alone (I own the complete uk office set). I swear I don't think I have ever seen anything funnier...ever. anywhere.

 

[Heidict]

At The Office website you can see a deleted scene from last night episode.

Dwight is complaining to Michael about Jim. He says that Jim glued is desk drawers together, he changed his voicemail so that Dwight sounded like a chipmunk and he told Dwight that they had a meeting at 4am and Dwight actually showed up and was the only one there.

 

[OK!]

It's shot that way because the premise of the show is that it's a documentary on office life. That's why you see a lot of sideways glances at the camera from the characters, especially in awkward or emotional moments, like they alllllmost forget the cameras are there but then remember at the last second.

When Dwight removed his jacket last night, I thought he was about to try to put the moves on Pam. Anyone else?

... I also loved the "gaydar" that Jim sent

 

[hidmickey:myantidrug]

So I got seasons one and two for Christmas and I may have found one of the best episodes...Diversity Day. It's the one where they were having a required diversity seminar because of Michael's comments. Michael found the seminar absolutly pointless so he made one of his own. He made them all put the cards on their foreheads and talk to each other as that stereotype! Stanley got the 'black' card so no one knew how to talk to him. Angela got 'Jamacian (excuse my butching of that spelling)'. Kevin goes up to her and asks 'Do you want to smoke some weed' 'No' 'Well you should, maan'. Ha, I am so easily amused. I'm watching it now, the third time in a row!

 

[OK!]

While cleaning my house the past 2 days, I threw in first season 1 & watched all of the episodes back to back, then did the same with season 2. MAN, I love this show!!

I was seriously laughing till I cried at the open where Michael starts off throwing a football in the office; the scene culminates in Dwight tackling Ryan to the ground to steal the ball, then basically bodychecking both Creed (who's fast becoming one of my favorite characters--I SO wish they did more with him!) and Stanley.
