I'd like a warning from NBC when they're going to turn the last half of The Office into Grey's Anatomy. 

Dwight was funny.  The potato salad was funny.  I thought Karen's joke on Jim was funny.

Roy's reaction was intense.  I wouldn't wanna be Jim Halpert right about next week. 
Wasn't sure if that was supposed to funny...scared the piss out of me.

I know.  So now we've got that drama to look forward to next week.

I don't like this at all.

I'm looking forward to hearing everyone else's opinion on last night...I'm thinking Taylor, for one, is going to be pissed off.

For the most part I liked it. Some good lines,

Creed and Toby

I am not a fan of introducing drama into a comedy, so I don't like where Roy/Jim/Pam is going. Although, I could be surprised.

Yeah, I was disappointed after the Pam/Roy thing, but, after thinking about it, realized there were still definitely a few funny moments.

"Good thing you didn't listen to me."

"Yeah, that was a close one..."


30 Rock blew it out of the water last night in the comedy department, though.  The Office came up second in Best Drama after Scubs.

We just started watching 30 Rock a few weeks ago, with the Paul Reubens prince episode. Excellent show. Alec Baldwin's character is great and the rest of the cast is pretty strong in my opinion.

I kept laughing at Dwight. That was the whole show to me. Usually is anymore. Most of this doesn't make sense and that's what's supposed to be so funny. I feel bad because I don't think it is. Michael rolling around on the floor in a straight jacket? Good sight gag but not hilarious. Calling himself Michael the Magic was though.

All in all I'd say,

Dwight: Teh ablls.
Episode: Not teh ablls.

I did watch Slap Shot on HBO right afterward and it was funny. Not a wasted effort on the couch. Go me.

You've got to post your thoughts in the Studio 60 thread. I haven't watched last night's yet but it's a nice little leftover for the weekend.

The straight jacket bit? Next episode they should have Michael pull up to house to meet a teenage girl he met on line and he gets busted. That would be funny. Wouldn't it? Just random out of character bits that the writers think would be funny.

The secondary characters are still funny, but the Toby/Pam/Roy/Jim/Karen thing is taking over the show. Especially with last night's "dramatic" ending. It was one thing when (UK version) Lee shoved Tim when he was dancing with Dawn. He saw Tim with his finance and reacted. But this is turning into so much DRAMA and it's pretty thin at that.

I'm not pissed off. It's TV show so I don't give a toss. Earl is still good. Randy's comment about missing the beginning of Cannonball II cracked me up.

One big thing: did Karen say she was the only one left from the merger? Where the F is Andy?

Andy is in anger management. I didn't hear Karen say it, but the director's cut from the episode where Andy went ballistic because he couldn't find his phone showed him going at the end. He was trying to convince himself that he's still on the path to upper management, because, after all, anger management is still management.

I liked last night episode. Jan's a fucking freaky psycho bitch, but she was great. So many uncomfortable moments. I didn't see Roy's outburst coming at all. I'm not sure I like where this is going. A little too 90210 for me. We won't find out for about 6 weeks, as the Office will be on hiatus until then. Damn.
