bob_barron Posted September 22, 2006 Author Report Posted September 22, 2006 Shouldn't Toby have known that outing Oscar to Michael....not the best idea?
Lord of The Curry Posted September 22, 2006 Report Posted September 22, 2006 "Now at my ten year high school reunion it won't say 'Temp', it'll say 'Junior Sales at a mid-level paper distribution company.' That'll show 'em."- R.Howard
Craig Th Posted September 22, 2006 Report Posted September 22, 2006 I loved it when Pam looked at Ryan when Michael said something, and Ryan was like "What are you doing?"
Lord of The Curry Posted September 22, 2006 Report Posted September 22, 2006 Kelly being the first one to go up to Oscar was awesome. - A Jam moment. That pretty much sums it up. Pam's smile-bordering-on-tears at the end ruled.
godthedog Posted September 22, 2006 Report Posted September 22, 2006 Wow, this show got dark real quick. Lots of keeping people unhappy, jokes that make you as uncomfortable as the characters, and general bleakness (those few extra references to Dunder Mifflin's dire financial straits go a long way). Felt like this episode tried harder than any of the others to be like the original, with the tone and the willingness to pull the rug out from under its characters. Some of the show just felt weird and awkward (especially the flashback), but that was bound to happen trying to tie up so many loose ends in one show. Overall I liked it a lot, but they're walking a fine line on the importance of Jim/Pam (I'm hoping it doesn't take over the entire structure of the show and give us another "Ross and Rachel" type thing).
bob_barron Posted September 22, 2006 Author Report Posted September 22, 2006 The people at NA just seem to hate this show- stop killing my vibe! I do think the timing was off in the conference scene like a lot of people said
Downhome Posted September 22, 2006 Report Posted September 22, 2006 I just got an email letting me know that NBC has shipped my Dwight bobblehead.
A Happy Medium Posted September 22, 2006 Report Posted September 22, 2006 I enjoyed the season premeire tonight. Thank goodness for a DVR and a cell phone. I had to call my house so work wouldn't cause me to miss the show tonight. I like how Roy was almost in tears for letting Pam get away from him. Nice character development from him. And the mugshot was hilarious.
C Dubya 04 Posted September 22, 2006 Report Posted September 22, 2006 The people at NA just seem to hate this show- stop killing my vibe! I do think the timing was off in the conference scene like a lot of people said People are idiots. I loved the show last night. It was funny and had good plot development. I think that some people weren't going to be happy unless Jim and Pam were getting married right away. I have faith that the writers will know what they're doing.
slimm44 Posted September 22, 2006 Report Posted September 22, 2006 Here's a storyline related question? Do you think Jim knows Pam didn't get married?
bob_barron Posted September 22, 2006 Author Report Posted September 22, 2006 "Have you ever googled google?" I love Ed Helms
HollywoodSpikeJenkins Posted September 22, 2006 Report Posted September 22, 2006 Here's a storyline related question? Do you think Jim knows Pam didn't get married? I don't think he does. If memory serves right, he didn't even mention Pam.
Mystery Eskimo Posted September 22, 2006 Report Posted September 22, 2006 Great episode, especially compared to the new series of Extras thats just started over here, which has been fairly mediocre so far. I wonder how the Gervais written episode will turn out.
Angelus Posted September 22, 2006 Report Posted September 22, 2006 "You know if i was gay, i would be the most flamboyant gay you ever seen. I would be leading the parade covered in feathers and just be waving the rainbow flag"
ZGangsta Posted September 22, 2006 Report Posted September 22, 2006 That was an amazing premier. "Maybe we could go out for a beer sometime and you can tell me how you do that to another dude." Kevin just giggling in his interview was awesome.
Lord of The Curry Posted September 22, 2006 Report Posted September 22, 2006 "Oh, there's Oscars roomate. I wonder if he knows?"
Craig Th Posted September 23, 2006 Report Posted September 23, 2006 I loved the ending, when Jim sent Dwight the "gaydar."
Downhome Posted September 23, 2006 Report Posted September 23, 2006 I liked how it had "BI" in the middle of it.
Ravenbomb Posted September 23, 2006 Report Posted September 23, 2006 that broad does a great Big Tuna impression
Craig Th Posted September 23, 2006 Report Posted September 23, 2006 I liked how it had "BI" in the middle of it. What is she from?
bob_barron Posted September 23, 2006 Author Report Posted September 23, 2006 She was on Boston Public. She's banging Jim in real life
Ravenbomb Posted September 23, 2006 Report Posted September 23, 2006 no wonder she has his "camera face" down so good
Lord of The Curry Posted September 23, 2006 Report Posted September 23, 2006 She was also in the Roca-Pads sketch from Chappelle Show Season One.
SuperJerk Posted September 23, 2006 Report Posted September 23, 2006 Enough good things could not be said about this scene.
Lord of The Curry Posted September 23, 2006 Report Posted September 23, 2006 I was calling co-workers Big Tuna today and not telling them what it meant.
Guest Hotbutter Spoontoaster Posted September 23, 2006 Report Posted September 23, 2006 you so crazy!
The Ghost of bps21 Posted September 23, 2006 Report Posted September 23, 2006 They made me care about Roy. I didn't think that was possible. ... I am a huge fan of the original version...and although I think the US version is "funnier" I still hold the British version as the best sitcom I've ever seen. ... But seeing where this show is taking what is, at it's core, the original 4 characters, is amazing. And currently (aside from Veronica Mars) the best show on TV.
