The Office

<p> &quot;A corporate weight loss initiative has everyone obssessed about their weight.&quot; </p> <p> I can&#39;t wait to see this. And I believe it&#39;s an hour show. </p>

<p> I was watching a movie last night with Rainn Wilson (the actor who plays Dwight) and I couldn&#39;t take it seriously. All I saw and heard was Dwight every time he was in the scene. He&#39;s definitely typecasted. </p> <p> The movie was &quot;The Last Mimzy&quot; </p>

<p> Anyone have any predictions for the new season.<br /> Is that hr lady from the last episode going to be on or was that a one time deal? </p>

<p> &quot;<strong>SNL JUST GOT EVEN WORSE</strong> &quot;&#39;Saturday Night Live&#39; star <strong>Amy Poehler</strong> may be ready for primetime after all. The actress is said to be in talks to star in the new NBC spin-off of &#39;The Office,&#39; the trades report...&quot; </p> <p> <a href="http://www.mollygood.com/19669-20080716/">Source</a> </p>

<p> Me and my dog would like to know about the webisodes. Who&#39;s got the scoop? </p> <p> <img src="http://www.realtown.com/members/brianlange/files/images/Rico.jpg" /> </p>

<p>The season finale was great. My favorite line was when Michael was talking about Holly and said &quot;She is sweet and simple like a lady baker.&quot; I also loved it when Andy pulled the microphone too far at the party and the keyboard fell.</p> <p>Anyone know what's up with the webisodes? Are they going to be regular length show just on the web?</p>

<p> I missed it but I heard golfing was involved which should be good. </p>

<p> I think part of the fun of the office is that we all know someone who is like one of the characters in the office. A few years ago I worked for a boss that was a lot like Michael. This guy was obnoxious, arrogant, ignorant of a lot of things but also very good at heart. In particular, I remember a stressful and unproductive week at work ending with a $150 bonus because I said something positive at lunch. My former boss also had a unecessary habit of saying something supportive and condescending at the same time. If you did something constructive for the company you were sure to be congratulated and insulted at the same time. I feel relieved that I no longer work for &quot;Michael&quot; but having done so I do have a greater appreciation for The Office. </p>

<p> I watched a rerun of the Secret Santa episode last night and it has to be up there as one of the best. My favorite line was when Michael says &#39;The Holidays are a time when you get to say to somebody I love you this many dollars worth&#39;. Angela starting to tear up when Michael changed the secret santa to &quot;Yankee swamp&quot; without &quot;checking with the party planners&quot; was hilarious. </p>

<p> I thought last nights show was pretty darn funny. The best part was Pam&#39;s &quot;backup glasses&quot;. The best line was when Michael said &quot;uh that is just noise coming from an ugly scientist&quot;. I also liked how Jim had to lead her out of the office when things got heated. </p> <p> The part where Dwight buys Andy&#39;s car was a little off. It wasn&#39;t bad but it could of been funnier. </p>

<p> You have to rule out the major characters: Michael, Dwight, Jim, Pam.<br /> There&#39;s a chance that Toby could really be moving to Costa Rica but I think it&#39;s going to be Ryan. His drug problem was kind of random but it might set him up to be fired. Can&#39;t wait for tomorrow&#39;s show. </p>

<p>Last night's episdoe 'Night Out' was kind of different. My favorite part was when Pam threw the football and hit Meredith in the face. And is Toby leaving the show or was that just a random thing about him moving to Costa Rica?</p>

<p> I found a site with a little bit of cute Office trivia, like.... </p> <p> Martin Short, Hank Azaria and Bob Odenkirk were interested in playing Michael Scott before the role eventually went to Steve Carell. </p> <p> <a href="http://flonkerton.wordpress.com/2007/03/13/the-office-trivia/">Read more...</a> </p>

<p> I watched a rerun of the episode where Michael and Jan meet the county paper guy at Chilis who is played by Tim Meadows (&#39;The Ladies Man&#39; from SNL) It&#39;s one of my favorites. Has The Office had any other interesting cameos? </p>

<p> I thought last night&#39;s show was pretty darn funny. The best part was how Pam really wanted Michael chair and how Creed couldn&#39;t wait to get Pam&#39;s chair. Oh man that was hilarious. </p>
