Never fall in love with somebody you actually love.

I found Andy's serenade incredibly tackly and horrible. But that's Just Me I suspect.

I reckon Ryan will go and Jan will return. It probably doesn't make much sense, but I can't figure out why Jan is still in the show otherwise.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

really? i thought it was the best yet this season. there were a ton of laugh out loud moments for me.

I'm with tiggy. This is the first hourlong that felt pretty successful as an hourlong and not two half-hours stuck together. Of course, we only have one more.

The kidnapping was a little over-the-top-ish, I agree.

I loved that Pam, despite agreeing to prank Dwight against her better intentions, still pulled out the ol' Pam move of making Dwight feel better at the end of it all. Aww. I love the way she looks and the way she sounds and basically everything about her.

This is me. This is the first time in recent memory a TV program has made me fall in love with a fictional character -- and I think that's the intention of the writers. So well done, writer peeps.

Always Anti-fascist!

The last time I remember really falling for a fictional character was Claire in Generation X.

Not that Ms. Beesley is other than lovable, I should say. And I'm glad she's not dressing as downtrodden as in previous seasons.

I get TV crushes all the time, much like regular crushes, but I don't often want to pull them out of the television and marry them.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

I don't think funny, supportive, pretty-but-real girls are portrayed a lot on TV these days. Lots of sultry femme fatales and clueless bimbos, but not more well-rounded women.

If women are funny, supportive, etc, they are often moms and wives, so not available.
