Dr. Ifto Posted October 16, 2009 Share Posted October 16, 2009 Man that lady for the credit card was freaking quick and unrelenting. Man I would kill Kevin for that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wally Q Posted October 16, 2009 Share Posted October 16, 2009 I'm assuming the scene at the end of the episode had to deal with Kevin's screw up and Jim & Pam? I hate my DVR this week! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lucas1138 Posted October 16, 2009 Share Posted October 16, 2009 Yeah, Kevin called Pam and she was very short with him because somehow their credit card got transferred and wasn't letting him speak too much really so he just says "Pam... tell Jim... Hey" Then after she hangs up he looks at the camera and says "They have no idea what happened" *Kevin grin* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wally Q Posted October 16, 2009 Share Posted October 16, 2009 Good call on that one. This week's episode really didn't catch me as well as the rest this season but it was entertaining for the most part. Thanks for the description! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lucas1138 Posted October 16, 2009 Share Posted October 16, 2009 Yeah I thought it was a bit 'worse' (being a totally relative term there) than the rest of the season, but I got an hour long wedding episode last week, I'm not complaining. Still pretty entertaining though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chaos_Effect Posted October 16, 2009 Share Posted October 16, 2009 I thought it was a fairly week episode this week. The A plot with Michael and the mafia guy seemed like an undercooked version of a plot that you'd see on It's Always Sunny. The only part of that plot I really enjoyed was Andy trying to fix the car. I enjoyed the B plot with Kevin a great deal and wished they would have had a little bit more of that. His conversation with the credit card company was great. I always watch the episodes twice so hopefully it will improve on a second viewing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
R.CAllen Posted October 23, 2009 Share Posted October 23, 2009 Tonight was non-stop fun. Laughed out loud at Creed's reaction to the opera music, the word "Kaiser", Toby's quivering Kermit-esque voice, and any time the new secretary said anything. I don't know quite why but her cheerful obliviousness is just great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wally Q Posted October 23, 2009 Share Posted October 23, 2009 Tonight was fun but a bit goofier than what we're accustomed to. I think it was more of the direction but that's not really a negative towards the show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scantron20 Posted October 23, 2009 Share Posted October 23, 2009 yeah Erin the secretary was making me smile the entire episode... the scene where Dwight goes to the annex to get the mallard and he walks past Erin and she basically is all happy and smiling at the camera... that put a smile on my face... she's just so damn cute! but man.. Pam was being an uber b*tch! i think she was wrong on this one and in the real world she definitely would've been fired oh and the other thing that made me laugh was Ryan's response to Pam in the conference room when she said "what if he was dating one of your guys' mother" and he goes "hey that's my mom you're talking about"... that was hilarious!

Jedi Cool Posted October 23, 2009 Share Posted October 23, 2009 Tough call on that one. On the one hand, Pam was being very difficult. On the other, it was Michael. But you're right...it's only because it's Michael that she still has a job. Loved the temporary truce between Toby and Michael, though. Jim was definitely stressed in this episode.

Tank Posted October 23, 2009 Share Posted October 23, 2009 first episode this season I've felt the need to comment on! Felt like it was back to form. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D-Ray Kenobi Posted October 23, 2009 Share Posted October 23, 2009 Man, Pam can be kind of a beeyotch sometimes. Great episode though. It had a lot of awkward humor as opposed to the over the top stuff they've been doing too much of lately. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mara Jade Skywalker Posted October 28, 2009 Author Share Posted October 28, 2009 Sure, Pam would have been fired in the real world, but also in the real world Michael Scott would have been fired a looooong time ago (or would never have been made a manager in the first place). I'm torn; I think Pam overreacted, but on the other hand I can understand why she was so grossed out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jedi Cool Posted October 30, 2009 Share Posted October 30, 2009 Loved the Halloween gags that started off the show. Really liked that Pam is the keeper of Office romance secrets still. "Did you mean Marlon Wayans?" (LOL). Another Michael overreaction episode where he almost got it and then took it to an extreme. Nice try, Jim.

Dr. Destructo Posted November 2, 2009 Share Posted November 2, 2009 This show is killing me... They have to tone the Jim/Pam thing waaaaaay back. Also, Jim as co-magager is getting really bad now... Best scene from last episode was the Michael Scott hanging scene. That was great. lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NumberSix Posted November 6, 2009 Share Posted November 6, 2009 I just noticed tonight they added Ellie Kemper's name to the credits. She's official at last! Tonight's Dwight/Andy thing became irritating after a while, but I loved watching the constant changes on the playing field during Pam's mom's birthday lunch. First Michael's trying to get Pam to accept him as "family", and Pam's all stubborn denial. Then Michael finally wakes up to the age difference. Pam notices and sees her opening to start wedging them apart, and she fully exploits it. Jim catches on to her tactical shift a few minutes later and rolls with it. But little do Pam and Jim realize that Michael's fear of dying before fatherhood is mighty indeed, so when he drastically accelerates into dumping mode at the worst possible moment, they recoil as they realize it didn't take much for them to go too far. Even worse, their improvised plan is to blame because of course Michael will dump her at the worst possible moment, because if there's one thing he does well, it's unwittingly choosing worst possible moments for everything he does. And naturally, for an encore, he keeps pouring salt in everyone's wounds during the entire return trip. It was so like watching good sports.

scantron20 Posted November 6, 2009 Share Posted November 6, 2009 Ellie's been official for quite some time now. Her name didn't appear in the first episode of the season I believe, but has since appeared starting with the second. I love her character. She's a good pairing with Kelly.

Jedi Cool Posted November 6, 2009 Share Posted November 6, 2009 Michael's bad timing is always painful to watch. He's shallow enough - and his desire to have a family - is big enough to consider the age of his partner significant. I'm surprised he didn't realize this sooner. Loved the big smile on Stanley's face when Dwight brought in the bagels. Speaking of which, did the office workers have the best day ever? Free breakfast, free lunch and ends with Michael getting hit in the face. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mara Jade Skywalker Posted November 6, 2009 Author Share Posted November 6, 2009 Michael is the most AWKWARD person ever. I was so happy when Pam punched him in the face. I knew that she was going to get a conscience and not want to do it, but of course Michael had to egg her on. Lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D-Ray Kenobi Posted November 6, 2009 Share Posted November 6, 2009 Ryan already has a photo blog up with some of the pictures he had in the show. I like how the writers and PR people for the show have stuff like this going on, it's as if we're supposed to play along with the fact that these aren't fictional characters at all and that there's stuff still happening when the show isn't on or filming.

Chaos_Effect Posted November 6, 2009 Share Posted November 6, 2009 Michael's breakup was squirm inducing. There are just sometimes when his stupidity rises to the point where it is unbelievable and I don't really like those moments. I liked the Dwight/Andy subplot a lot better.
