The Office on NBC...anyone a fan?

Just posting here to see if anyone regularly watches and follows The Office that is also a member of TMS...

...If so, what do you think about season five so far...?

BIG TIME.

Not really feeling it for either the Michael/Holly or current Jim/Pam storylines. But we'll see how it plays out. However, I get the feeling that the impending crash & burn that is Andy and Angela will be nothing short of spectacular. Dwight FTW.

I am a regular watcher and, for some reason the last few episodes have not been as funny as previous seasons. Kinda disappointed.

Last season will be difficult to top.

Yeah, I agree...

...I think there are too many writers, producers, executive producers. Almost like there are too many people with a say as to where the storyline goes.

I think the season started losing alot of its luster mid-way through season three.

I did, however, like the Dwight/Andy conflict concerning Cornell during the last episode.

Agreed.

And Kevin as the Joker = GOLD.

yeah, I almost fell off my couch...

The one I haven't liked is the return of Ryan. Maybe I am looking too much into it, but I highly doubt a company would consider the return of a temp who was formerly a full-time employee who committed fraud and embezzlement.

It is somewhat satisfying to see him answering phones, however.

this is true.

I wonder who will fill the position left by Holly...maybe in the next episode?

I have to say that seeing Pam as Chaplin/Hitler was strangely HOT.

I am really hoping that with Holly gone they bring Toby back. The interaction between he and M. Scott is awesome. I loved the interaction between Dwight and Andy. Kind of brought me back to the early Joint episode when Dwight interviewed Jim and the tables turned.
They need to get Pam back on regularly. I don't know what she is doing outside the show, but I think that interaction is missed. Dwight and Jim need to get back to their roots.

I love how Michael has gone after Toby in the past few seasons...it is so funny.

I just feel like the show is trying to go off onto too many tangents in an effort to gain even more viewers. They have a solid fan base. They don't need to change the formula.

Michael's exit interview of Toby was priceless.

"Who do you think you are?"

Best line of the season so far.

Micheal to Holly "What's wrong? Did Daryl touch you?"
