The Office



So I'm a big fan of the office and last night was the season premiere which I was pretty excited about. I had September 25(office season premiere) on Jessica's calender for so long, like 2 months I think. For those of you who don't know what the office is, two things: WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN? And it's pretty awesome.

The Office is an Emmy-Award winning American television sitcom airing on National Broadcasting Company (NBC) and developed by Greg Daniels. It is an American adaptation of the BBC series with the same name. Unlike many American sitcoms, The Office is shot in a single-camera setup, without a studio audience or a laugh track, and is made in the form of a documentary, or "mockumentary". It depicts the everyday lives of office employees in the Scranton, Pennsylvania branch of the fictional Dunder Mifflin Paper Company. Although fictional and scripted, the show takes the form of a documentary, with the presence of the camera openly acknowledged. (thanks wikipedia)


So like I was saying I really like the office and this morning I got the idea to start writing a blog about it every Friday after it airs Thursday nights. This is a spot just to read my thoughts of the show and for me to hear what you thought. So lets begin.

I first have to say that Kevin has become my favorite character since the last season. there is something about him that makes you laugh, maybe not really something but more like EVERYTHING. Probably one of the funniest "Kevin parts" last night was when they did the initial weight in, but they asked Pam to get off because she was leaving in a week (I know Pam going off to school, CRAZY) and then did the weigh in again. you could see they all tried to do the math to see how much Pam weighed but then Kevin said "Pam you weigh 226 pounds", and Pam said no i don't weight anywhere near that and this is the best part holly looks back at Kevin and says "Math is hard." and Kevin nods back yes. If you remember from the season finally, holly thinks that Kevin is mentally handicapped. Ah that was pretty funny, if you aren't laughing, you obviously don't know Kevin, cause if you did, you would be laughing.

Oh, and poor Andy, he's not my favorite character just cause he is kinda annoying, yet funny, but poor Andy.

To be honest Michael's goatee was creeping me out. He looked really ridiculous and a little like the UK version of Micheal Scott (pointed out by Jess). See for yourself:
WEIRD
Jess was a little disappointed in Jim's proposal to Pam, but i actually think it was a really good one. I mean what a story. First of all, his first plan gets all messed up and then he has a plan to do it when she gets done with school but while she away he realizes he cant wait so he says meet me at the gas station where that soda exploded on me, blah, blah, blah. And when they meet he tells her I just cant wait. Sure it might not have been the most romantic place, but the heart behind it makes it 100 times better. I thought it was really cool.

For a final note. It was cool to see Toby, poor guy, too back about his neck.

Alright hope to hear someones thought on the office last night.

Jess is dead wrong. You'd think women would be better at understanding this romance stuff.
Go figure

haha okay okay so I'm shallow.

Jess said...

ah...I mean, I do get your point though...that is really sweet that he couldn't wait. But at a gas station?

And you have to be obsessed to do this every week ;)
