And, okay, I love him even more now that I've seen him speaking Spanish. *fans self*
Ay, dios mio!
Tara: Do you have any books on robots? Giles: Oh, yes, dozens. There's a lot of research to be done in order to--no, I'm lying. Haven't got squat. I just like watching Xander squirm.

Never fall in love with somebody you actually love.
Aimee, the episode is online at nbc.com I think
I agree, it started to drag in the middle. However, that said, I'm not really complaining -- they're only doing certain episodes as hour longs, which is a pretty wise move.
My little shipper heart melted when Jim and Pam held hands. My poor heart. I'm just glad these characters aren't in a Joss Whedon show otherwise I'd be flinching ever time Pam goes near a window.

I was worried that when she told the camera crew that they were in fact dating Jim would suddenly get cold feet and dump her! or something horrible. I anticipate doom, I guess.

Like...the first four? I'm not sure how wise that is. People might forget it's normally a half-hour show.

Such a weird decision. I don't get it. If you're going to do them at all why not spread them out through the season and make them more like Events, you know?

Oh, I wanted to note that, in comparison, the hour-long MNIE felt filled out properly and more like an hourlong tale, though it looks like officially, it was a two-part episode smushed together in a block.

Oh, I didn't realise it was the first four. I presumed (the thing which effects 95% of the fuck ups in my life) that they would play them as events. Natch.
Narratively, having Pam and Jim together and happy makes no sense. Plus they may make me die of cute.

Sure it does. Happy is okay! It is possible to still have a happy yet interesting/entertaining couple! I submit to you Coach and Mrs. Coach from FNL and Dwight and Angela from this very show.

I think Angela may locked Dwight in a giant freezer. That's what I would do. If I was a character in The Office.
I fall firmly on the need and want debate when it comes to couples in TV. Although if Joss directs an episode where they kill anybody off I will... be annoyed. He's doing an episode this series again, isn't he?
