I'd rather not take over another thread with reflections on The Office.  So let's do it all here.  

Last night's episode was less than stellar.  But it's truly the first time I've felt let down after the show.  Thoughts?

BTW Cortez... I love Jason Lee as well.  Do you like Mallrats more than Clerks?  Which did you watch first?  I've found that people who saw either movie first tend to like that movie just a bit better.  Possibly because it was their first exposure to Kevin Smith movies...

I agree. The Office is quickly become a "sitcom"

All the actors suddenly have Professional Haricuts in this new season and teh plotlines are completely unbelievably unrealistic. Granted, the show was over-the-top before, but it's turning into a Friends-type show.

there is something significantly different this season from last.  they've toned it down or something.  i loved it last season.  this season is good, but different- more watcher-friendly or mainstreamed

i've only seen about three episodes of this show, and they were all this season..and it's caught my attention..the scenes with the office reading the boss guy's movie screenplay was hilarious to me

See that was the good part of the show.  I was surprised that David actually came off well at the end of the lunch/dinner/drinks meeting and then hooked up with that chick.  I like it better when he's always a bumbling idiot.

Who doesn't?  

She was on the I Love the 80s 3D with her hair straightened.  I recognized her but my sexual partner did not.  She looks so different with straight done up professional hair.

I only know the English version and that stayed good till the end - though they were right to end it and not try to drag it out. It's funny I think because we actually know people like that. It makes me laugh and cringe at the same time.
