Ryan does get funnier every week. "I hooked up with her on February 13th." :::pulls hair:::

 

It's just the little one liners like that, and last night's that make him so great.

Ryan and Stanley I like because they seem particularly real to me.

 

In the episode where they go to the warehouse and Ryan suggests a faster way to unload the truck Stanley says "This is a run out the clock situation, just like upstairs." I love that realism for some reason.

Dwight's Speech: BLOOD ALONE MOVES THE WHEELS OF HISTORY! [pause] Have you ever asked yourselves in an hour of meditation - which everyone finds during the day - how long we have been striving for greatness? [bangs fist] Not only the years we've been at war – the war of work – but from the moment as a child, when we realize the world could be conquered. It has been a lifetime struggle [bang’s fists again] a never-ending fight, I say to you [bangs again] and you will understand that it is a privilege to fight. WE ARE WARRIORS! [applause] Salesmen of north-eastern Pennsylvania, I ask you once more rise and be worthy of this historical hour. [even bigger applause as Dwight gives a horrible sounding laugh] No revolution is worth anything unless it can defend itself. Some people will tell you salesman is a bad word. They’ll conjure up images of used car dealers, and door to door charlatans. This is our duty to change their perception. I say, salesman – and women – of the world... unite. We must never acquiesce, for it is together... TOGETHER THAT WE PREVAIL. WE MUST NEVER CEDE CONTROL OF THE MOTHERLAND...

 

Audience: ...FOR IT IS TOGETHER THAT WE PREVAIL!

We should have broughten in a pot of Colored Greens

 

It's Collard Greens

 

What?

 

You say Collard Greens, not Colored Greens

 

Well that doesn't make sense. You can't call them Collared People, that's offensive!

I hadn't seen "Diversity Day" before and when I saw that "black" note card, I started laughing hysterically for about a minute and a half. Great stuff.

 

Oh, and I also liked where Michael starts stereotypically berating the Indian woman that was in the other room until she breaks down and slaps him, and then he deadpans "now she knows what it feels like to be a minority." Hilarious episode.

Stanley yelling at Ryan was the highlight for me.

I liked Ryan's reaction in the parking lot after. Also his reaction when Kelly starts cuddling up to him in the conference room.

And Creed offereing to show his 4 toes was classic. As was Michael not having any clue as to what his job is.

And Toby: "We'll you'd need a wife for that. Or a girlfriend.... Not Jan."

This series has been seriously stepping it up since the christmas break, it almost makes up for the loss of Arrested Development.

Has anyone seen Dwight's Myspace?It's legit, I found it off the NBC site.

The last two episodes (Dwight's Speech and last night) have seemed kind of weak to me. Hopefully the show pick up in the last few episodes.

The screen name and the "Yeah, that should show them what's up" after was probably the funniest thing I've seen yet on the show. I haven't watched this show much, but I remember there being a really funny episode over the summer with the people in the Office with their captain Steve Carrell playing a Basketball game versus some of the other people in the loading department and it was hilarious. Anyone know the title of that?

 

What would you guys suggest as the funniest one yet?

Good Episodes:

-Diversity Day

-Sexual Harrassment

-The Fire

-The Fight

-Christmas Party

-Valentine's Day

 

They're all good, just those are my favourites. The episode you're talking about is called 'Basketball'.

Co-workers will star in web-only episodes

March 16 2006

Angela Kinsey, Oscar Nunez and Brian Baumgartner on 'The Office'

 

LOS ANGELES -- Just like in real life, some of the cast from "The Office" won't a whole lot of time off this summer.

 

NBC is planning to shoot 10 online-only "webisodes" of its critically acclaimed comedy to air during the offseason. The new material will bring some of the show's supporting players front and center as the Dunder Mifflin accounting staff searches for a stash of cash that's gone missing from the Scranton office.

 

Angela (Angela Kinsey), Kevin (Brian Baumgartner) and Oscar (Oscar Nunez) will lead the search for the missing money, with no one above suspicion. The web episodes will also feature "Office" regulars Rainn Wilson, Melora Hardin, Phyllis Smith, Leslie David Baker, Kate Flannigan and David Denman.

 

A debut date for the online episodes, which will stream at NBC.com, hasn't been set.

 

"The Office" has been a big part of NBC's efforts to attract viewers through non-traditional outlets. The network webcast an episode on MySpace prior to its premiere last year, and the show has been one of NBC's more popular downloads on Apple's iTunes.

 

The show has seen its ratings grown since it and "My Name Is Earl" made the move from Tuesday to Thursday nights in January. Since the switch, "The Office" has drawn about 8.7 million viewers per week and a 4.5 rating in the adults 18-49 demographic NBC prizes. The 18-49 number is a 22 percent improvement over its Tuesday average; viewers are up about 12 percent since the move.

I'm convinceed the character of Brian is totally based on Brian Posehn

Of Mr. Show fame. He has the exact same delivery.

 

"It's so big, it's fucking great."

 

Angela's actually a total babe when she smiles.

HartFan, you've got to see "The Injury" or whatever that episode is called. I'm convinced that (don't read this)

Dwight puking on the car

is the crowning moment of this show thus far, even if it loses its impact after a few viewings.

 

I also got the season one DVD recently and I really enjoyed the Health Care episode (I had missed it on TV).

 

Edit: Thursday's episode was fantastic. Stanley yelling at Ryan about "sniffing" his daughter was hilarious.

Yes he was. That is where I know him from. And isn't his real name Ryan?

No, he's B.J. Novak. He's one of the writers for The Office as well, I think he wrote Diversity Day.

I know he wrote "Fire," which was a great episode.
