The Office felt big tonight, more than it has in a while. Stuff is happening. They actually talked to the documentary guys, Jim took a major step in leaving Dunder Mifflin, Oscar is having an affair with Angela's husband, and they wrote off Kelly and Ryan. Gabe seems to be gone too, which is fine by me. Clark (Duke) and uh, Jim #2 (I already forgot his name) were pretty good new additions, and humiliating Nellie is a fine way to go with that character. I also liked Michael finally being mentioned and Andy inheriting his hatred of Toby. Kevin killing the turtle was pretty cringe-worthy (it broke Bill Maher's patience with the show (twitter.com)) but I thought Dwight nearly killing himself was funny. Overall, I wish the episode was funnier, at least for my tastes, but I appreciate the concerted launch out of the gate towards The End.
What did you think?

Gabe from last season was spending time between Florida and Scranton. I am guessing it the same.
I am in for the last season.

|  #5 Posted on 21.9.12 0216.37 | Instant Rating: 5.69 | Having Pam LITERALLY say "our lives aren't going to change!" and Jim make a wistful face, combined with Jim literally saying that line about Plop being 'the new Jim' was some damn lazy writing. Way to spell things out for us, Office.

If Dwight isn't the father, then who is? Don't say the Senator 'cause I won't believe it.

Seeing them take of the mics and hand them to the documentary crew was just ....jarring. Definitely makes me wonder where they are going with it.

I thought it was a good start to the last season. I watched with my admittedly easy to entertain teenage sons and we thought Dwight on the slack line falling 20 times and getting bloodied was hilarious.
Once again, I have blown away my signature's tags and it's up to CRZ to fix them before the entire board disappears. I don't know I continue have to have this green background if I'm not going to properly mantain it! |

Gabe is too busy running for VP with Romney.
(If he was a Sabre employee and they don't own D-M anymore, I figure he's gone for that reason.)
I know everyone hated Nellie but everyone's just gonna pick on her all the time now?
