The Thursday night comedy duo returns with 2 brand spanking new episodes tonight, I know the fan base is pretty tiny.

It seems like the only show with a dedicated base here is LOST.

WHAT!

This better not stand!

There's no way...I mean maybe he will quit and there will be shows of him working other jobs or something, but he will be back.

Another classic episode of My Name is Earl! Comedy at its finest!

KillerGremlin · 03-20-2009, 04:50 AM

I'm sure Michael will be back...

also, Jim got shut down big time.

Well, seeing as how Steve Carell is one of the producers of the show and the main comedic driving force of the show, I think you already know it won't stand.

It's just a fun little plot twist.

Weird to see Stringer Bell (one of the gang leaders of The Wire) here in Scranton as Charles Miner.

Go watch The Wire if you haven't already!

I felt bad for Jim, but it was nice to finally see one of his pranks backfire on him.

That's just not classy.

That is not in any ways how I saw the plot resolving itself.

So for the second week in a row.

WHAT!?!?!!

And the ending/credits shake things up even more.

So the first two episodes with Michael Scott Paper Company, we have the return of some old characters. As well as a moment of real Michael.

We have some not so fun stuff going on in the office, and you can probably guess where this is all leading.

Dwight and Andy are butt buddies now.....new secretary is hot.......Jim is getting shafted........new boss is a dick.........Ryan is a dick........will Michael Scott Paper Company succeed?

I'm almost officially caught up with The Office after starting 4 seasons behind. Just have to watch these two new ones..I've been trying to ignore this thread though...

EDIT: I thought I recognized the new secretary. It's this girl...

Well the arc is over, it was fun while it lasted, but a little disappointed it did nothing to shake up the status quo.

Fyacin · 04-25-2009, 10:24 PM

I thought it was hilarious. Slick negotiating by michael.

KillerGremlin · 04-26-2009, 08:21 AM

I'm a little disappointed that The Office resolved Michael Scott Paper Company so quickly. The show's major conflict was resolved when Pam and Jim hooked up and I feel like they are stretching to find conflicts to keep things interesting. I was enjoying this new dynamic where Dwight and Jim compete for attention, and I'm not entirely sure how they are going to remove Charles from the company now. Bringing back Ryan makes no sense to me, and this is the second time I've really had to stretch my suspension of disbelief. The first time was when Dwight did the office fire drill and he wasn't fired (I mean seriously?). Honestly I'll probably keep watching The Office till it fizzles out and dies but I am starting to get the feeling that this is the last season that is going to not feature a bunch of crappy episodes.

SPOILER!

Pam is pregnant! Oh shit!

END SPOILER
