SuperJerk Posted September 21, 2005 Report Posted September 21, 2005 Was that the Office Max guy? Was the crab meat really made out of notebooks and staplers? I gots to know. I thought it was pretty funny, but could've done without the Carson Daly cameo.
Annabelle Posted September 21, 2005 Report Posted September 21, 2005 man does ricky gervais slay steve carroll. fuck. i've never seen the office america before. substandard.
bob_barron Posted September 21, 2005 Report Posted September 21, 2005 I thought tonight's Office was hilarious until it ran out gas in act 3. Dwight is awesome.
DMann2003 Posted September 21, 2005 Report Posted September 21, 2005 I'm sorry the interview with the Chilli's manager was great
DMann2003 Posted September 21, 2005 Report Posted September 21, 2005 Gee were the producers watching "Almost Famous" when they made this episode? (Fine with me, I love that film and the 'Tiny Dancer' sequence brings tears to my eyes)
The Mandarin Posted September 21, 2005 Report Posted September 21, 2005 Man, I loved both shows tonight. "My Name is Earl" was a bit better though. My main complaint with the direction of "The Office" is that Steve Carrell should definitely be the focus of the show over the Jim/Pam relationship.
Guest Fishyswa Posted September 21, 2005 Report Posted September 21, 2005 ^Ditto, the relationship was well done but it was way too serious and out of place in the show. Still thought it was hilarious though. MNIE was great, loved the scene in the gay bar. "Do you want to be the man or the woman?"
Ravenbomb Posted September 21, 2005 Author Report Posted September 21, 2005 God, I love this show (Earl)
Darthtiki Posted September 21, 2005 Report Posted September 21, 2005 Unfortunately it falls in that second 1/2 of Gilmore Girls and I don't havge Tivo EDIT: I was wrong, Earl is on at nine. Whoo-hoo
Guest JMA Posted September 21, 2005 Report Posted September 21, 2005 I saw it and loved it. Hopefully this show lasts for more than a season.
imajackoff? Posted September 21, 2005 Report Posted September 21, 2005 I loved the show. Earl and Randy sprinting out of the house after they discovered the dude was gay cracked me the fuck up.
Black Lushus Posted September 21, 2005 Report Posted September 21, 2005 I had no idea Ethan Suplee lost that much weight, last time I saw anything withhim in it was Remember The Titans...I didn't even know it was him at first...the show was pretty good, not LOL funny, as someone else said, but I enjoyed it...only caught a little bit of the Office, seems funny enough, I guess...
Ripper Posted September 21, 2005 Report Posted September 21, 2005 Ethan Suplee. I last saw him in Butterfly effect and he was BIGGER than he was in Remember the Titans. I remember thinking that if he doesn't do something fast he was going to die. I didn't recognize him for a while last night, but goddamn. Good for him. I liked the show though. Them backing out the room before running out the house at the Gay announcement was the funniest thing to me though. That and the HAWT maid.
Black Lushus Posted September 21, 2005 Report Posted September 21, 2005 by god, that woman was HAWT, wasn't she!
Guest Fishyswa Posted September 21, 2005 Report Posted September 21, 2005 Jesus, as a testament to how much weight he lost, I didn't even think it was him, just someone who looked a lot like him....
Downhome Posted September 21, 2005 Report Posted September 21, 2005 Well, I've added My Name Is Earl to the short, but growing, list of TV shows that I actually watch every week. Here were my favorite parts: -"Yeah he's gay, but he aint gonna bite me...He aint gonne bite me is he?" -"I know this might sound crazy in this day and age, but we live in a small town and I've never been face to face with a gay before. I understand now the runnin' probably wasn't necessary." -"Oh no you didn't! Tell me you didn't just go old school!" -"I didn't wanna be the only non-gay there so, luckily Randy agreed to go as soon as he heard there were gonna be bubbles." -"...so we named him Dodge." Jason Lee is awesome on this show, Jaime Pressley is perfect for her role, the maid is fucking smokin', and the brother is awesome. This one is a keeper in my book.
Sideburnious Posted September 21, 2005 Report Posted September 21, 2005 Earl has a good concept but it wasnt hilarious. I'll keep watching it though.
Ravenbomb Posted September 21, 2005 Author Report Posted September 21, 2005 "I know now that the runnin' probably wasn't necessary"
USC Wuz Robbed! Posted September 21, 2005 Report Posted September 21, 2005 I'd like to watch it but Bones takes priority.
bob_barron Posted September 21, 2005 Report Posted September 21, 2005 Bones and Earl aren't on at the same time.
USC Wuz Robbed! Posted September 21, 2005 Report Posted September 21, 2005 Yes they are on the West coast. Bones is on 8 pm and ends at 9 pm while My Name is Earl is on 8:30 pm. edit: Sorry you're correct, however House is on then, which my wife loves, so no Earl for me.
imajackoff? Posted September 21, 2005 Report Posted September 21, 2005 Might I also add that I loved the use of music in MNIE. Anytime you can fit Santana's "Winning" into a sit-com, im impressed.
CanadianChris Posted September 21, 2005 Report Posted September 21, 2005 I liked it enough that I'll tape the midnight showing on NBC Seattle. It had some pretty funny moments.
Darthtiki Posted September 21, 2005 Report Posted September 21, 2005 BTW and this may only be for the folks on the west coast, but the guy Earl helped in this episode is the guy who plays Dan on the Del Taco commercials.
Placebo Effect Posted September 22, 2005 Report Posted September 22, 2005 Just watched The Office from last night. Jesus Christ, did somebody say network retooling? While the show is still great, the love story, classic music, and Michael being applauded by his employees? What the fuck?
Ravenbomb Posted September 22, 2005 Author Report Posted September 22, 2005 So does this make this thread the defacto OAO "My Name Is Earl" thread? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> it would appear so
Guest El Satanico Posted September 22, 2005 Report Posted September 22, 2005 I don't see Earl as a show that will only appeal to a certian limited audience, like AD. I could see Earl appealing to the average viewer in Kansas, but I can't see AD doing the same.
Mecha Mummy Posted September 22, 2005 Report Posted September 22, 2005 Just watched The Office from last night. Jesus Christ, did somebody say network retooling? While the show is still great, the love story, classic music, and Michael being applauded by his employees? What the fuck? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Well, it was complete "you could not be any more pathetic at this moment so we kind of feel sorry for you" applause, but yeah.
DMann2003 Posted September 23, 2005 Report Posted September 23, 2005 According to Newsaskew.com Earl won its timeslot with a 9.3 rating and 14 share.
