View Full Version : The Office
I just got into this show and man it's hilarious. I just finished the first season and now I'm renting the rest from Blockbuster. Anyone else love this show?

Been watching it since day 1. One of the best shows on TV these days. I love it so much I can't get enough of it. (That's what she said.)
Steve Carell is so funny on that show. So far my two favorite episodes are the one with the basketball game and the diversity day episode.

Steve Carell's character is actually one of my LEAST favorite on the show. If he was my boss I'd totally punch him in the face.
Jim is an absolute genius. Everything he does is hilarious.

Ya it is. The original is sometimes better, even though their accents are sometimes impossible to understand.

Season 2 is by far the best season.
Also after you watch all of them check out the original British office too, hilarious.

Really? I think Michael Scott is one of the funniest characters. I agree Jim's pretty funny too. Same with Dwight, he's nuts.

I absolutely love that show. I have a love/hate relationship with Michael. Typically I think he's hilarious, but every now and then (Phyllis' wedding) I just want to stab him. The entire series is genius. Can't wait for the new season!
Awesome show!
I miss Rashida Jones though.

There's gonna be a spin-off with her as the lead character from what I've heard. Jenna Fischer is hotter though. Discuss!

I dunno, in the show Pam (Jenna) is definitely cuter. But hotter, that's hard to say. Especially when she's not on the show, she doesn't seem as attractive. I think I have to give it to Karen (Radisha).

Andy makes my blood boil. But he did provide one of the funniest moments in the shows history. When he [SPOILER LOOK AWAY] punched through the wall. We watched that scene in slow motion like 15 times and it was HILARIOUS. Especially given that we knew it wasn't faked. He actually punched through the wall for the shot.

Woooo spin-off with Rashida Jones! I'm all over it.
I love me some Jenna Fischer too, but in a holy crap I can't believe how cute you are way.
It's a tough choice. But I'm still leaning towards Rashida.

Now my favorite show, since 24 is on a break. I DVR every episode. I swear, no one can create genuinely awkward moments like the writers of this show can.
And YAY FOR PAM LOVE!

I think I was in tears during the episode where Phyllis gets flashed. Michael pulls the finger thru the pants trick and Dwight calls Phyllis "Phallus."

The Office is the best comedy on right now. As far as Jenna vs Rashida. I don't even get where this is a close contest. Jenna, with barely any, or no makeup on in the show, looks better than Rashida, whose face is plastered with makeup everywhere. At least, that's the way Rashida looks like to me. But, I guess, just like music, everyone has a different opinion on these sort of things, heh.
Jenna looks fantastic to me in the Dewey Cox movie. Was watching the 1 season that exists of Undeclared from Netflix and Jenna makes a couple small appearances in those. Younger Jenna looks very nice too!
Michael is also my favorite on the show. Though, like people have said, there are times you just want to punch him in the throat. And Ryan, is a little sleazebag.

To be fair though, we don't really know how much makeup Jenna is actually wearing. She's meant to look sort of girl next door and wholesome.
But either way, I think both are extremely attractive.

There's nothing wrong with Rashida Jones, trust me. She's definitely attractive. But if I have to choose, I'm taking Jenna Fischer every time. and that second photo in the post a few above me just confirms my choice!
There's just so many funny moments in the show but one of my favorites is when the Stamford branch is playing Call of Duty for team building and Jim is terrible at it. "YOU CAN'T USE A SNIPER RIFLE ON CARRINGTON!!!"
Absolute favorite has to be the episode with the gift baskets. I've never laughed so hard when Michael starts yelling about the chocolate turtles.

08-14-2008, 11:29 PM
Heh..that scene when they played call of duty was hilarious. I like how Jim didn't know how to play and he was running into a corner of a building in place and Karen shoots him in the head.
Andy yelling at Jim, "Saboteur!" "I'm gonna kill you for real!"

Btw...How could we not have mentioned Daryl yet!? He's amazing even though he's such a minor role. His "negro-isms" are hilarious. So much so that I named my fantasy football team this season "Dinkin Flicka".
My favorite is still "Bippity boppity, give me the zoppity". If you can use that in everyday conversation, you are pro.

I’m Batman. At least that’s what I tell women in bars after a few rounds. It’s a great pick-up line because they have no way of knowing if it’s true or not. Sure, they have a 99% chance of knowing that you’re not Batman, but it’s that 1% that gives you the in.
What you’re really looking for is the lady that wants to argue with you about how much you’re not Batman. Those are the broads that end up in bed with you later on yelling “Yes, Batman! Show me your utility belt!” It works every time. It also helps to have a utility belt with you because up until that point, she may still not believe you’re Batman, but when you produce the utility belt, you send her head spinning.

I love The Office! I have seen the first 3 seasons (2nd is the best so far, IMO), but I haven't finished the 4th season because of the stupid writer's strike throwing me off schedule. I need to catch up before the 5th season starts on September 25!

Well, most series that premiere in the middle of a season and don't have a sure future are like that.

To all you Office lovers, you oughta check out the British version. It is even more awkward than the American version, and many will agree, even funnier.

I just saw the health care plan episode again; one of my favorite episodes.
Dwight: Someone forged medical information, and that's a felony.
Jim: OK, Whoa, all right 'cause that's a pretty intense accusation. How do you know that they're fake?
Dwight: Uh, Leprosy, Flesh Eating Bacteria, Hot Dog Fingers, Government Created Killer Nano Robot Infection.
Dwight: The problem, Jim, is that people who are really suffering from a medical condition won't receive the care they need because someone in this office is coming up with ridiculous stuff. "Count Choculitis?"
Jim: Sounds Tough.
Dwight: Why did you write that down, Jim? Is it because you know I love Count Chocula?
Oh, and in case anyone missed my edit on my last post: Creed Thoughts (http://blog.nbc.com/CreedThoughts/)

Just another nod to the original. If you like the American one, check out the British one (and if you enjoy Ricky Gervais, check out "Extras" as well as The Ricky Gervais Show podcast)
As for Jenna Fischer, take a look at the first photo that pops up when you search her name on Google :P Also, she's been kidnapped by Rainn Wilson, says so on her myspace page ;P
