Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

That was the bleakest episode of The Office ever.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Best. Earl. EVER.

I wanted to slap Jan in the face whehn she started yelling at Michael about being so irresponsible with his money.

I do believe in killing the messenger, you know why? Because it sends a message. ~ Damon Salvatore

I suspect the surreality that Laga has trouble accepting was Brother Mose (Mo? Moe? Moes?) at the Schrute Farm

this isn't the first time we saw Mose though. he was in the ep when Dwight took Ryan to his farm to "initiate" him.

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

However, my surreality meter had already gone into the red (in the good way) by Earl, including H.R. Pufnstuff in Randy's fantasy, then the whole Crab Rap scene, which sure sounded like Eddie Steeples singing and just showed off the moves of the whole cast, too.

Don't forget Joy flying through the air and PUNCHING A CROW.

this isn't the first time we saw Mose though. he was in the ep when Dwight took Ryan to his farm to "initiate" him.

Yep. And he's played by one of the writers! Oh, writers.

Also, note to Paul Lieberstein: it was a direct object, not an indirect object.

P-C, he was talking about the use of "whomever" in Ryan's sentence. It was an indirect object. "...communicate it to whomever..."

I agree with Jesse - very bleak. Dwight and his keening about killed me. And I loved Jim's "I've been there, and I'm sorry you're there," speech to him on the stairs, though poor Dwight when he reached out and Jim was gone.

Am looking forward to the return of the half hour format.

Wait, what I meant was that it's the object of a preposition.

poor Dwight when he reached out and Jim was gone.

So funny, yet so sad.

Never fall in love with somebody you actually love.

I believe not next week, but the week after's episode is directed by Joss.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

That's worth a big woohoo!

Structurally, I think these 1 hour episodes will play better when they're split into halves and trimmed a bit tighter.

Art Crawl!!!

FYI, The Big Bang Theory has received a full season order.

It's nice to see some brave pretenders trying to make it interesting.

I like the Big Bang Theory, so I'm glad.
