I started watching this series about 6 months ago. When the series first came out, I really couldn't get into it. It felt really slow and the dry humor wasn't impressing me. Then I decided to give it another shot and really came to love it.

Last couple of episodes have been really good in my opinion, though the latest one I didn't care for much. The Michael and Dwight scenes were quite good, but I could care less about the Swank Hotness debate.

Great great show!  I loved it from episode one.  And it gets better and better as you learn the personalities of the characters.  This and 30Rock are my two favorites.

So, did any of you guys watch the Superbowl special? I thought it was completely hilarious. Dwight was in a new level of awesome, with the fire drill and the CPR training. Michael's gay jokes were really good. And Stanley was good too. I was really laughing throughout the whole thing.

Haven't seen last night's episode yet, probably tonight or tomorrow.

The opening may have been the best one ever.  It was a great episode overall.  And a nice make up for the episode before, which was probably one of the worst.

Which was the previous one? The one about Hillary Swank? Yeah, that one was awful. Oh, and that movie inside a show type of dynamic with Jack Black was awesome too. A bit disturbing too, though I'm sure some of you here have a fetish for that type of stuff... hopefully you guys enjoyed it thoroughly.

  • I left Indiana. Because it was horrible.

Andy was a great addition.  His story in last night's episode was so cringe worthy uncomfortable that it really made me appreciate how good a job Ed Helms has done with that character.  The Nard dog battles crippling loneliness and depression.

DKC Bucks. Also terrible.

I've liked the last two but just the mention of bringing Holly back again made me cringe. I didn't think it was possible to make Michael Scott unfunny but when they pair him with Holly it is.

This is my all time 2nd favorite TV show after The X-Files.  My girlfiend and I have all the seasons on on DVD.  Besides the Celtics, its the only thing I watch on TV.  LOVE IT

Dwight: "What type of cake do you want, imbecile?"
"Let me call him," Floyd said.

The man shook his head. "O.J. doesn't give out his cell," he said. "He'll call you."

I saw about 3/4 of the superbowl special. I DVR'd it, but of course the post game went long I guess so it didn't recoed the last 15 minutes or so. Really made me mad. Now I'll never know if Michael came back to work after the roast or not.

Yeah, I set up the DVR to record an hour after THe Office was scheduled to end, because I knew they'd go overboard with the post-game celebration.

But to some up for you, Michael came back to work and gave a quick roast to everyone else, to which Stanley started cracking up laughing.

I guess you haven't met Hulu yet:

Most, if not all, of the current FOX and NBC shows you can watch there. Good quality.
