EricMM Posted November 16, 2006 Report Posted November 16, 2006 What, are ratings bad for this show??
Spaceman Spiff Posted November 16, 2006 Report Posted November 16, 2006 I think it usually pulls somewhere around 5.0. It does really well in the 18-34 range, as well as "rich" households, and sells well on iTunes. I wouldn't worry about the show.
Hank Kingsley Posted November 16, 2006 Report Posted November 16, 2006 And even if the ratings were bad, the awards and critical praise would keep the show around. I don't NBC is as stupid as Fox (re: Arrested Development), and they would know not to drop their best shows.
bob_barron Posted November 16, 2006 Author Report Posted November 16, 2006 What, are ratings bad for this show?? Ratings are solid. Not great, but not bad.
USC Wuz Robbed! Posted November 16, 2006 Report Posted November 16, 2006 Jenna and James Gunn is on Loveline right now, and she was just talking about her vagina... Well don't leave me hangin'...
Dobbs 3K Posted November 16, 2006 Report Posted November 16, 2006 lol I tried getting the ringtone, too, but doesn't work with US Cellular apparently.
treble Posted November 16, 2006 Report Posted November 16, 2006 Video clip of something mentioned in Downhome's spoilers. Lazy Scranton
C Dubya 04 Posted November 16, 2006 Report Posted November 16, 2006 For anyone who just can't wait, Yahoo has a bunch of 30 second to a minute preview clips up. I'm trying to hold out, but just don't know if I can.
Downhome Posted November 16, 2006 Report Posted November 16, 2006 Click here to download the Loveline from last night with Jenna and James. I recorded it myself, and missed the first five minutes or so, but it should do. I took out all of the commercials as well and made each segment a separate .mp3 file. There are six .mp3 files in all.
Ravenbomb Posted November 17, 2006 Report Posted November 17, 2006 Nice touch with the shredder being from Staples
Guest Felonies! Posted November 17, 2006 Report Posted November 17, 2006 Staples product placement? You have to be kidding me.
Hank Kingsley Posted November 17, 2006 Report Posted November 17, 2006 Lazy Scranton/Scranton Witch Project was awesome. Kevin stole the first half of the episode, and the Dwight/Andy stuff ruled it. There isn't a new episode next week, is there?
Hank Kingsley Posted November 17, 2006 Report Posted November 17, 2006 Oh, and Ed Helms has to stay on so I can get my weekly a capella fix.
Robert Posted November 17, 2006 Report Posted November 17, 2006 The best Office episode I've seen this season. The Andy/Dwight stuff was downright funny, and their confrontation at the end was great. Andy was really dickish when he started to talk to Angela with the kittens stuff. Kevin with the paper shredder was just great, with the salad part at the end.
Angle-plex Posted November 17, 2006 Report Posted November 17, 2006 Thank god the Jim/Pam/Karen stuff was kept suttle. That situation along with Roy not being a complete asshole is making things interesting when I thought they had already blown their load. The Dwight/Andy stuff was funny but something just didn't feel right with this episode. I almost feel like this season has all been an epilogue to the real season that is just now starting with everyone coming together. Edit: And Stanley's "look" at the other black guy was the most hilarious thing I've seen in a while.
Craig Th Posted November 17, 2006 Report Posted November 17, 2006 I almost feel like this season has all been an epilogue to the real season that is just now starting with everyone coming together. That is what I was thinking. Good episode though and of course Creed stole the show.
Guest Felonies! Posted November 17, 2006 Report Posted November 17, 2006 So both of you don't know the difference between a prologue and an epilogue? Remarkable.
Guest Hotbutter Spoontoaster Posted November 17, 2006 Report Posted November 17, 2006 So both of you don't know the difference between a prologue and an epilogue? Remarkable. That is what I was thinking. Good episode though and of course Kelly stole the show. There isn't a new episode next week, is there? No. Happy Thanksgiving.
HollywoodSpikeJenkins Posted November 17, 2006 Report Posted November 17, 2006 I missed this episode and my brother said it was amazing. Where can I watch it online?
C Dubya 04 Posted November 17, 2006 Report Posted November 17, 2006 I think that you can watch it at nbc.com for free which is nice. The Creed parts were amazing of course. I think that they should give him a little bit more. He's gold. I liked the Dwight and Andy feud, especially with the final scene where Michael announced that Jim was "his" choice for number 2 and they immediately went after the #3 spot.
nl5xsk1 Posted November 17, 2006 Report Posted November 17, 2006 I don't know if it was just a matter of unrealistic expectations or what, but I wasn't enamored with last night's episode. It was good at times, but not nearly as great as I had thought it was going to be. And I thought that Kevin & the shredder stole the show more than Creed, Dwight, Andy, etc. Sometimes the less over-the-top stuff amuses me more than the real extreme stuff does.
Lord of The Curry Posted November 17, 2006 Report Posted November 17, 2006 Nah, Creed needs to stay confined to stealing the show. It's what he's best at.
C Dubya 04 Posted November 17, 2006 Report Posted November 17, 2006 The deleted scene on nbc.com is an extended version of "Lazy Scranton". It is worth watching.
Hank Kingsley Posted November 17, 2006 Report Posted November 17, 2006 I like the fact that pretty much everyone thinks that a different character "stole the show." Shows just how well the writers have developed the peripheral characters.
Lord of The Curry Posted November 17, 2006 Report Posted November 17, 2006 To me, stealing the show is making the most out of the minimal material, in which case Creed is the undisputed king of show-stealing.
Hank Kingsley Posted November 17, 2006 Report Posted November 17, 2006 yes, the extended Lazy Scranton rules for the return of "A Michael Scott Joint" and "Great Scott!" Jenna Fischer had a live blog last night after the show, which included this: We have a ton of great episodes coming up. After Thanksgiving is an episode called "The Convict". This was written by Ricky Gervais and Stephen Merchant (the creators of the British Office). It is a GREAT episode. Michael finds out that one of the Stamford employees is a former convict. Need I say more? This episode also has my favorite Pam/Andy scene!
Guest Felonies! Posted November 17, 2006 Report Posted November 17, 2006 Re: Deleted Scenes I wish the season 2 DVD just stuck them into the episodes where they would've been had they not been deleted, so you could just watched the whole thing like that. Or at least have the option to toggle between TV episode and full episode. Watching eight minutes of various deleted scenes isn't as good as watching a 30-minute episode. Oh well.
Craig Th Posted November 17, 2006 Report Posted November 17, 2006 So both of you don't know the difference between a prologue and an epilogue? Remarkable. Touche.

I think that the problem with doing that would be that sometimes the deleted scenes are replaced with other material and you'd have to do a lot of editing that they probably didn't feel like doing. The Lazy Scranton edits as an example. Where the edits took place, there was a lot of other stuff put in so I don't think you could just pop the deleted scenes in and have it make sense.
Ravenbomb Posted November 18, 2006 Report Posted November 18, 2006 Is Creed too obvious a guess for who the former convict will be?
