Finally watched it today. I thought it was funnier than all of last season. I couldn't stop laughing!
Michael: Ok, I made it all up! Andy: Even the fact that I'm gay?

How good was last night's episode? It wasn't quite as funny as the premiere, but the storyline was great and makes me very intruiged for the next few episodes
***SPOILERS AHEAD***
They've shown in the past that Jim fails miserably when he tries to lead people, so making him co-manager could show us whether he can really cut it. Wallace seems to have confidence in him, obviously, but Jim seems to only be a go-getter when he needs to be. Should be very interesting indeed.

The very last minute of last nights episode, where Dwight was yelling made me laugh for 5 minutes straight. I think his reaction to Michael is going to be interesting.

Love the season so far. And I really, really love Oscar in the last two episodes, haha.

Haha, this week's cold open was really lowbrow, but it still made me laugh my ass off.

I heard a lot of people saying it wasn't great but I really liked it. I was so goofily happy for Jim, haha.
Oscar's been working his way up my favorite characters list. I rewatched 2 & 3 recently (and I was going to rewatch 4 before 6 started, but the person I bought it from on Amazon never sent it so I'm waiting for my refund so I can buy from somebody who will actually ship it) and Oscar is just so great.

The fucking small scene with Creed & Michael when they're wondering what they're talking about sent me into a gigglefit. edit: Also, did you know the character Creed Brantton is played by a man named Creed Brantton. hahah

The wedding is October 8th! Is it sad that I'm more excited for this than any real wedding I've been to?

I was slightly disappointed by this week. Some of it just didn't make any sense, and the abrupt ending made me go "Whaaa?" It definitely had its moments, though. Oscar's quote about having two leaders was brilliant.
***SPOILERS AHEAD***
There were three things I didn't like/thought were weird:
1. In all of David Wallace's experience, what would make him think that Michael and Jim's vastly different personalities would make for an effective team? It seems kind of baffling that he would think this is a good idea.
2. Why was the option of giving everyone a small but equal raise dismissed so quickly and then never considered again? Maybe it was to illustrate that Jim is bad at making decisions, but I thought that was dumb.
3. Dwight has been way too over the top lately. It's like they stopped writing good lines for him and just started having him yell a lot.
***END SPOILERS*
Oh well, I'm extremely excited for the wedding. Judging from the previews, I'll probably get choked up during Jim's speech.

The best line in the entire episode was when Michael said they were drinking gin. Because that's what managing people is: driving yourself to drink. But the entire arc of having two managers over an office of maybe 15 people is pretty out there.
But yeah, last night was ho hum. Except for the send off, because any scene where Ryan is acting like a dirt bag is perfect.

Ha, yeah I liked the end. I also loved the look on Pam's face when Jim tried to make that lame "rewind" joke.

The previews already had me smiling and tearing up like buffoon, I can only imagine what the whole scene will be like.

I stupidly expected the wedding to be this week (no idea why) and was incredibly disappointed. This episode was nothing special, really. I'm stoked for next week, though!

Yeah, I'm with everyone else. That episode was blegh. It's too awkward having Jim as a co-manager. I think the only time I laughed was when Dwight was trying to file a complaint on Jim to Jim.

Dwight might as well have been played by Jack Black last episode.

I totally just lost it when Dwight had on that 3 wolf moon shirt. Literally until the next commercial. That was amazing!

I didn't really like the first 3/4 of the episode, but the rest of it almost made me cry.

Did not shed one tear, but totally made me smile. Had I been alone, I probably would've cried.

So. I caught a pretty wicked flu yesterday (only left my bed for the first 13 hours to puke), but I knew The Office was on last night so at 8:15 I watched last week's online because I missed it and then texted my sister who was in the basement to check to see if everybody down there would be cool if I came down so I could watch it. She said that was fine, so I crawled down two flights of steps and made camp on the couch.
It was storming so the reception was pretty shitty. It kept cutting in and out, sometimes for a minute at a time, but it wasn't bad enough that I was missing what was going on. During the commercial break at around 9:40, it was a really long cutout. Then my bro-in-law went 'Okay, I can't do this anymore' AND PUT IN A MOVIE.
Couldn't hold out for 15 more minutes, nooooooooooo. Put in goddamn Year One. So I guess I'll be watching this online sometime today.

I changed my mind, the whole thing was pretty damn good. Except Dwight, I think they've ruined his character now. Ugh.

I hated Michael so much this episode. My favorite part was Pam talking to Jim on the phone about Andy.
