I hate love triangles. Here's a tip, Jim. Pick the hot one and stick with her.

Fine episode, not great.
I loved Meredith's "SHUT UP, ANGELA!!!!!"

Michael may very well be the "least believable as a human" character in the history of sitcoms. Maybe he's an alien?
Anyway, it's still a good show, this just kind of bothers me sometimes.

Apparently Andy was fired in a deleted scene 2 episodes again. Why in the world would they cut that??
An average episode, some good stuff, the Michael stuff needs tweaked a little. He was just plain unbelievable.

No, he was told to get anger management. Not fired.
Yeah, Michael was a bit too over the top. But I still find him a wholey likeable character, unlike David Brent who was just a fucking asshole.
Creed and Ryan win for this episode.

As a person that didn't even find Prison Michael that bad, Michael was positively painful for a lot of this episode. Thank god Bob Vance (Vance Refrigeration) finally kicked him out.

A Promo with Joss Whedon about Thursday's episode.
I didn't like the last episode much, with the wedding.
Rainn Wilson (Dwight) is hosting Saturday Night Live Feb. 24th. He's a weird guy but I have to admit he's the most consistent performer on the show, always nails his role.

More Joss Whedon talking about it.
http://www.nbc.com/The_Office/video/
For those who can't see it due to being in another country, he makes it clear people shouldn't expect it to be very Joss Whedony, that he tries to conform to the show's style.

Well, it's kinda hard to adapt your style to a show with such a confirmed style like The Office. With The Office, it seems more like directors fulfilling a dream of their's, if that makes sense. Kinda like actors guest-starring on The Simpsons because they're fans.

Considering the fact that Jim is trying to trick Dwight into thinking that he (Jim) is becoming a vampire, I'm sure we'll at least find out Dwight is a Buffy fan (He's already a fan of Star Wars and Alias, so it would hardly be a stretch).

YES! Best episode in awhile. Everything was fantastic! Dwight and Jim were the best of the nite, plus making Ryan move back to the corner or "annex" lol.

As old as Jim pulling pranks might be getting, the vampire thing was hilarious.
Good episode.

Now tonight's episode wasn't really that funny (except Dwight's self-tour of the house, "What do you know?"), but I, for one, am glad the Roy/Pam reunion didn't continue on. And Roy's last words at the end should make the next episode interesting.
And Andy needs to come back, ASAP.

Dwight was great in this episode. The scene in the little kids room while he was on the rocker was hilarious. The only thing I really didn't like was how the Pam/Roy relationship ended. I don't mind that it ended, I just thought it was a little too over the top.

I've found that a lot of this show is a little too over the top. That part struck me as dumb as well.
Good episode, funny, though I still have no idea how anyone would be interested in Michael.

Yeah, that thing with Roy was silly, but yeah, I'm at least glad the thing with Pam is over.
It was a fine episode. I just still feel like this season still hasn't found its footing.
And also, Dwight's been a bit much these past couple episodes. Needs to tone it down.

"I've never said that I love you."
"You don't have. This contract says it for you."
Or whatever the line was. I love Michael/Jan.

I thought it was another fine episode, although I find the Roy stuff was almost out-of-nowhere. It was only last week that they wrote him as a guy trying WAY too hard.

Lol I thought it was a fantastic episode!! Roy's brother just immediately start destroying the bar without knowing why - perfect!! Too many great things, one of my favorites - Jan's "that what she said." LOL!!

No new episodes in March, apparently. The last one (Cocktails) was a lot of fun but a little too jam packed, it needed to breath more, but was pretty good. I was glad to see Roy return to character, the whole new-Roy act never felt believable, even if he was trying hard, it was like some other character.
As a whole I wasn't too impressed with the dramatic moments of this sweeps. Could they possibly beat the Jim and Pam horse to death any more? There has been nothing keeping those two apart since mid-June of last year. They might as well have "contrived obstacle" stenciled onto Karen's forehead.
But overlooking that, it's still a funny show.
Harold Ramis is directing one of the April episodes from what I understand. A recent set visit by a fan said Ramis was there editing an episode he'd directed.
edit:
Correction. It was confirmed that Ramis is directing an episode to be filmed next week. So we probably won't see it for a while yet, like late April I'd guess.

Yep, 5 weeks of reruns. 6 weeks if you count from the end of cocktails till the start of the next episode.
Here's some deleted scenes.
One of them has Jan talking about her orgasms. Greg Daniels said recently that as far as he's concerned, the deleted scenes that they release to the public happened in the lives of the characters, they just weren't shown. So they count, in case you wondered.
