The Office

<p>I was wondering whether the time off from the writers strike will be part of the first show. My guess is that it won't be but it does seem a little awkward just to start up again without mentioning the&nbsp; break.&nbsp; But then again the&nbsp; reality aspect of the show (characters talking directly to the camera) makes me think its very possible.&nbsp; I'll guess we'll find out in ten days. </p>

<p>That people who don't get the office dont' work in a office. I have a friend who is a school teacher and he thinks The office is second rate humor and my neighbor is a stay at home mom who doesn't understand the show. I think you have to work in an office to truly appreciate the show.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>&nbsp;</p>

<p>'I went and got drunk with my laser tag team'</p> <p>-Dwight</p> <p>from the episode where his perfect attendance record ends when he thinks Friday is Saturday</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>&nbsp;</p>

<p>With the writers back from their strike, the new season of The Office will have us laughing so hard that the show will get renamed to &quot;30-minute abs&quot;.</p> <p>Here are my predictions for the new season:</p> <p>Dwight finds a dead alien in his beet farm and brings it in to work to disect it. After opening it up and stinking up the entire office, he realizes the alien was really just roadkill skunk.</p> <p>Michael takes up ballet lessons, but on the first day breaks some fingers from a fall. He has to wear a cast that makes him look like he's throwing gang signs while wearing a man tutu.</p> <p>Pam gets pregnant, and is 99.9% sure its hers.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p>

<p>My favorite episode would have to be 'Diversity Training' .&nbsp; I thought the show was hilarious and the part about Michael wanting to do it his way was very true to life.&nbsp; What's your favorite episode?</p>

<p>I think the office has two good seasons left, maybe three at the most. My theory is that the set up is more restrictive than a show like 'Cheers' or 'Seinfeld'. I don't think you can have too many promotions, job losses, etc. before the show 'Jumps the Shark'.&nbsp; I'd love to be wrong but I think this is the case. </p> <p>&nbsp;</p>
