The Office - Season 4

[DougJones43]

I just found out the chick that plays Karen is Quincy Jones' daughter. Her name is Rashida Jones. I had no idea her ethnicity was half black. I always thought she was Italian or something.

 

Maybe this should have gone in the "random pointless thoughts" thread. http://static.yuku.com//domainskins/bypass/img/smileys/wink.gif

I think Oscar was in an episode or 2 of 24. He was a pilot I think.

[homer]

Oscar's been in a bunch of Reno 911 episodes too.

[Fatter than Joey]

Oscar was in that "Halfway home"show that was on comedy channel

[BrewCrewForever]

Finally got around to watching the season premiere. It was okay, not near as good as they have been. I hope they get better from here on out. Doing a run for rabies was very funny in it's own right. Also Creed asking about what types of pain killers Merideth was on was funny.

 

Edit: Oh and Im on the Pam better then Karen side. Jenna Fischer is a hottie in The Office and have you seen her in Blades of Glory? Nice!

[BrewCrewForever]

That episode was hillarious. Better then the first. Watching Michael drive his car into the lake without stopping just seemed so funny to me I was laughing out load and I was alone. Also great Creed once again.

[bjkrautk]

"I think they could both do better."

 

It's awfully ironic that the very same show that took off due in no small part to iTunes (and the iPod / Christmas Party episode) devotes an hour-long episode to the evils of technology....right after NBC leaves the iTunes Store.

 

 

(And, for the record: Pam. Karen can't smile like that.)

[giffted1]

Great episode. Much better than the first one. Creed was hilarious, and my gut hurt from laughing when Michael drove into the lake.

[jlau20]

That was a pretty good episode...I couldn't stop laughing when he drove the car into the lake either.

[thablingster]

When Michael drove into the lake that was awesome. Great laughs. Dwight and Angela made for some good TV, too.

 

I am on the Pam > Karen side. It is a no contest. Karen did wear way too much makeup.

[Oldcity]

Creed is the best. He only cemented himself tighter in that position tonight.

 

Dude's gotta ride the bull every now and then. Later skater.

[And That]

Great episode tonight. Obviously the car thing was funny, but when Creed walked in with the black hair and said "What up, brah?" I almost died laughing. That was priceless.

 

I also like Andy (Drew?) better in the smaller doses he's been getting.

[Chio151]

Maybe I'm crazy, but I would really like to see less Steve Carrell time on the episodes. I know he's supposed to go too far everytime, but it just lasts too long sometimes. He is, by far, at his funniest when interacting with Dwight. It's the only time his character has balance.

 

Also, when Creed approached Ryan after the announcement I was laughing so hard. Creed is hilarious. But the funniest scene, IMO, in the episode is when Jim and Pam approached Toby about signing the 'relationship' document. Toby: "let's just wait and see." Toby is a vastly underrated character.

[homer]

Agreed. I think the actor that plays Toby does a fantastic job. And Creed is my favorite character on the show now. He rules.

 

And I disagree about the car scene. I thought it was a little too much. The beauty of Michael's character has been you could almost justify some of the stuff he's done, but no one would ever drive a car into a lake like that. Now, Dwight's attempts at bravery after they were submerged were hilarious, I just thought it was a big reach to put them in that situation. Other than that I enjoyed the episode.

[patrickgpe]

Yeah the Toby scene with Jim and Pam telling him that its just a casual thing so we will wait and see was classic. Remember the episode last year where they were at the bar and Toby spent the entire time winning a stuffed animal for Pam, and then she gave him back to him for his kid.

 

also kelly faking to be pregnant and then cutting to a scene with her shaking her head no was pretty funny. Her showing up in that dress and then wondering if Ryan was in the office today was good too.

 

 

anyone else try the new website

Yeah Toby is becoming the new Creed. An underrated character who has great parts every week. This episode blew away last weeks. Yeah Kelly was very good this week to.

[patrickgpe]

the episode was much better than last weeks. The one thing that was disappointing is that there didn't seem to be any classic lines like there usually are.

[homer]

I thought the whole list of 'that's what she said' lines that Michael wrote down were hilarious.

[And That]

One of my buddies, who's a casual Office viewer, made a good point last night. The Office seems to have more kick to it when you're exposed to it for more than 30 minutes (22 w/commercials) a week. While the shows are funny by themselves, it seems like watching the show in a block of at least an hour makes the shows that much funnier. There are so many little running gags and dry humor that a casual viewer might not "get it" from watching an episode or two in isolation. That's part of the reason I've liked this longer format - while there aren't as many jokes per minute, the funny ones have room to breath and the set-ups get a wider berth.

 

And they really need to get Sir Ben Kingsley to guest on the show someday.

[RU Rah Rah]

I was laughing pretty hard when Dwight tried to give Angela the feral barn cat.

[don1481]

Creed, with the dark hair, reminded me almost of Christopher Walken. So that was extra-creepy... but super-funny.

 

So when do we begin the Michael Scott Deathwatch?

[BrewCrewForever]

Oh my God! Yeah he did remind me of Walken now that you mention it. The Red Bull comment and him saying he was 30 was just great.

 

[And That]

The Red Bull comment and him saying he was 30 was just great.

He's 30... next week.

 

[BrewCrewForever]

He's 30... next week.

 

My bad.

 

[Patrick425]

"He smells like I would imagine Pierce Brosnan to smell."

 

That's the line that killed me.

 

Also, did anyone ever visit the "NBC Office" web site about a year ago or so. They had this great thing where you could enter someone's phone # and it would call that number with a funny message from Dwight. You could pick from 5 or 6 different messages. The weird thing was that you didn't have to register or give your name or anything. I was kind of surprised that someone didn't complain about it...maybe they did, and that's why it's not offered anymore.
