runthemover 39 Posted May 12, 2007 Share Posted May 12, 2007 Michael is just an idiot (how he's maintained the Regional Manager job is mindbottling).I don't think it's surprising at all. He has one of the top sales people (dwight) and is a great salesman himself. Remember how he got the "Staples" account (Jan was very surprised), and the one episode where he was yaking on the phone with this guy and at the end Pam said, "Michael this is a really big account." When the driving force of the office is sales, having a good salesman in charge is not a bad thing. Yes, he's an idiot, but a very capable idiot. Link to post Share on other sites

snooptoddd 0 Posted May 15, 2007 Share Posted May 15, 2007 As for who will get the corporate job, I don't think any of the Scranton people will get it. Karen might have the best chance, as I feel that Jim is too easy-going and Michael is just an idiot (how he's maintained the Regional Manager job is mindboggling).I bet they offer it to Jim and he turns it down thinking he's doing it for Karen ... then they offer it to Karen and she takes it and says Jim should date Pam.

Jeepster80125 0 Posted May 17, 2007 Share Posted May 17, 2007 I'm thinking that Karen will get the job and leave Jim in the dust, enter Pam and her broken *** back, they'll be together. End of season.Ship it. Link to post Share on other sites

showstopper24 0 Posted May 18, 2007 Share Posted May 18, 2007 "My first order of business will be to demote Jim Halpert. So I will need a new number two. My ideal choice, Jack Bauer. But he is unavailable, fictional, and over qualified."What a fantastic quote by Dwight. I loved the episode. Pam putting that note into Jim's bag was great. As was the end of the episode. Jim is such a great character. Link to post Share on other sites

Yoda 1 Posted May 18, 2007 Share Posted May 18, 2007 Ryan "We're through"Kelly: "what?" Nice.So the interesting thing here, is Jim seems to have "made his move" assuming that Karen gets the job(since Michael is a dolt and Jim himself backed out). But now he's going out to dinner with Pam and will find out that Karen isn't going anywhere, woops. Maybe we have a chick fight in the cards. It's not something i'd expect, but we can dream.

Reelishymn 0 Posted May 18, 2007 Share Posted May 18, 2007 Creed Thoughts: http://blog.nbc.com/CreedThoughts/Excellent stuff from an underrated character. "I got into a car accident yesterday and I just took off. It didn’t look too bad. The guy was making a big deal out of it, but come on – dogs don’t live forever." LMFAOLOL @ Dwight painting his office black to intimidate his subordinates. The Jack Bauer bit was awesome too. Schrute Bucks and Stanley Nickels, ahaha.Jan with her enhancements, yum yum. *salivates*Ryan getting the corporate job is brutal, all because he has an overrated post-grad degree from a community college. Dude hasn't made a sale yet and has little work experience in the related field. He'll probably start a fire at corporate.Definitely sounds like we'll have a catfight at the start of the next season!

showstopper24 0 Posted May 18, 2007 Share Posted May 18, 2007 [/url]From IMDB:The Office star Jenna Fischer has fractured her back in four places after falling down a set of stairs in a New York bar on Tuesday. The actress, who plays Pam Beesly in the Emmy Award-winning U.S. comedy, was taken to St. Vincent's Hospital in Manhattan after the fall at Buddakan. Her representative tells the New York Daily News, "She avoided anything scary near the spine and she'll make a full recovery in time to shoot season four of The Office this summer." Fischer most recently appeared onscreen in hit comedy Blades Of Glory opposite Will Ferrell and Jon Heder. Link to post Share on other sites

CobaltBlue 662 Posted September 8, 2007 Share Posted September 8, 2007 CNN:In a different part of the world, Jenna Fischer of "The Office" and her husband, filmmaker James Gunn, have separated after six years of marriage, Fischer's publicist, Lewis Kay, said Friday."We are sorry for any pain this causes family and friends," the pair said in a statement on Gunn's MySpace page. "The enthusiasm we have for each other's lives, spirits and careers is real -- we have been each other's cheerleader and friend during the past six years and continue to be so now and in the future."The 33-year-old actress was nominated for an Emmy this year for her work on NBC's "The Office." She portrays mousy secretary Pam Beesly, who found confidence last season when she confessed her romantic feelings to co-worker Jim Halpert (John Krasinksi).Gunn, 37, directed last year's "Slither," which co-starred Fischer.(Season 4 starts Sept 27th.)

CobaltBlue 662 Posted September 19, 2007 Share Posted September 19, 2007 This is like a month old already....and yet I hadn't seen it.Thanks for sharing, Jeep.Oh, and the Season 3 collection has a ridiculous amount of extras. Probably 8 episodes worth of excellent deleted scenes. Link to post Share on other sites
SBriand 4 Posted September 19, 2007 Share Posted September 19, 2007 My wife's really good friend is one of the editors of the show and in the mail we got a letter addressed to us and the return address was Dunder-Mifflin. Inside was a memo from Tobey that was a prop to one of the season 4 episodes. It was pretty cool. Link to post Share on other sites
