I'm surprised the writers have not done this yet. Last night was a pretty good episode and I can't wait to see the potential conflict between Jim andMichael....

 

[joeyd16]

I hinted last week that Jim would be getting his own office. Don't be surprised when no one from the office is present when Jim and Pam "elope". The episode I was at when they were filming is either the 4th or 5th one. It will feature Michael thinking he's going against a guy from the Mafia. Alsowhen the new secretary ruins Pam's water painting of the office Creed's expression is priceless.

 

[the north west]

I don't know if I like the direction the office is heading

 

[big j 33]

Tonight's the big wedding for Jim and Pam.

Hooray

 

[big j 33]

10 minutes til showtime

 

[kiddin like jason]

I wish I was invited.

 

[crazy ebw]

SHOULD be a classic episode. I'm going in hoping for the best.

 

[duba169]

hope this episode isn't overly corny

 

[craftsy21]

this might be the last episode I watch... i've stuck with this in hopes it'll get better for too long, this is just making me cringe at how many jokesthey're missing on.

It used to be cringe because of how awkward it was.... now... ugh.

 

[big j 33]

@ Jim crashing and burning and Michael trying to save it.

 

[eghckk]

@ michael i knew he was gonna find a way to ruin the moment.

 

[craftsy21]

seriously.. you guys are laughing at this right now? i'm so turned off by this... i don't get it.

 

[chino905]

I feel like punching Michael in the face

Yes, because it's funny. Is the show the same as it was in the first two seasons? No, of course not. I accepted that the show has changed,nothing I can do about that. I think this season has been a lot better than some of the past seasons, especially season 4 which was awful.

My biggest gripe is that the show clearly has gone away from its mockumentary style. In one room they have 3 separate camera shots on a set of characters,which is more like regular sitcoms than what the original style was. At times the jokes and stories aren't funny and I don't enjoy everything the showhas become, but I still enjoy watching it and it's better than most other comedies on television.

It's really not funny though. Not to me. It's just trying to exist in this realm of like still trying to have realistic settings, but writingstorylines that are just completely unbelievable. It's not working.

You either stay subtle and witty, or you go full blown craziness. It takes a lot of skill to pull off what they're trying to do, and that's whythey're failing.

Like Dwight sleeping with that chick.. it just makes no sense to his character that they've built up now for 4+ years.. i don't get what they'redoing. Nor why someone like you, who can admit the show is extremely flawed now, still thinks this gag is funny.

I'm really interested in hearing more on what you think about this all..
