The American CREATURE COMFORTS is coming out on DVD tomorrow. I think there were several that never aired.

Never fall in love with somebody you actually love.

Michael driving his car into a lake was a brilliant TV moment for me.

The actual writing on this in the second half was really good I thought, as it explored personal relationship breakdowns using the office as the context. Which is nice.

Pam and Jim are doomed, though. Being cute forever does not good drama make. (And Joss is directing the final one hour episode. Step away, Joss).

Re: Jim/Pam: I'd like to see them end up like Turk and Carla from "Scrubs", in that, it's not forgone that their being together solves all their problems, instead of that whole TV "We got them together, now they're boring." thing. On a shallow note, doesn't Krasinki have the best smile on television, right now? Looking at it really makes me want to smile.

His is pretty good but, right now, I'm going to have to go with Lee Pace's for the win (as the kids say).

Right...I forgot he has a show.

He does, and it's a good one. I thought there would be more discussion about it but I've looked in various threads & didn't see anything. I'd probably notice Lee Pace's smile more if he weren't standing next to Anna Friel most of the time. She's very distracting. Not that I'm complaining.

Haven't seen any mention of It's Always Sunny In Philadelphia, either. I'm enjoying it, too, especially when "The Gang Solve[d] the North Korea Problem." I'm on the same wavelength as its scuzzy absurdist humor but I thought my wife would HATE it. Much to my surprise she thought it was pretty funny (the episode "The Aluminum Monster vs. Fatty McGoo".)

Thanks, Dana.
