The Office -- "Murder" -- 11/12/09

The Office

The Office Season 6 Promo Photo

(Since there isn't an official season 6 cast photo yet)

Synopsis:

Spoiler:


Vicious rumors spread about Dunder Mifflin and have a powerful impact on Michael, who leads the office into a bizarre day of diversions and distractions, perturbing Jim and causing the staffers to question Michael's mental state. Meanwhile, Andy's nerdy bumbling prevents him from successfully wooing Erin.

Why couldn't they have named this episode Mukduk?

Sounds like a good one, but haven't they always questioned Michael's mental state?

They should make an announcement that British paper company Wernham Hogg is buying them out. Then bring in Gervais. Where the hell are they going with this story? That came out of nowhere.

Dwigt needs to punch himself in the junk at least every other ep.

Excellent idea! Though with all the Dunder Mifflin merchandise out there, I'm sure NBC would hate to lose that brand. Still, certainly could happen. I agree it came out of nowhere. I'm guessing the solution will somehow be in Jim's proposal about the grocery store deal...?

Not a bad episode, but not my favorite.

at Ryan's outfit!

The funniest part for me was them reading the WSJ article then it being cut off for $1 to continue reading, then everyone wonders what the ending was, then in a couple seconds they pull up the full article through google - and we have recent news that Rupert Murdoch wanted his news blocked from Google.

I didn't get what happened on the phone with Jim. Was it more bad news and then he too became stressed like Michael and joined in the murder game?

I think the accents, while a bit exaggerated, were great.

Yes, he kept being optimistic, then when he finally heard news, it was very bad news--that they may be bankrupt within a month. He gave Michael a hard time about the game until he realized after his call that sharing the news would break everyone's spirits--because as Pam said, there was no upside to it--so he joined in the game, too.

That would be really funny I think.

I know it's wishful thinking, but how awesome would it be to have some of the characters from the British version show up? David Brent (British version of Michael) could come in and be the new boss and maybe Gareth (British version of Dwight) too. Having 2 Dwight's going at it could be gold.

Ryan's new fad each week is so awesome, and I love how they hardly even spend time on it. My wife owns a comic shop and there's a dude that comes in and every month or so he's got a new "look" or thing he's into. It's so perfect.

Oscar's southern accent was hysterical.

I honestly laughed until I cried over the "Tube City" cutaway. Absolutely brilliant, especially Jim's face.

I don't know what was funnier about the Creed gag, his reaction or the car he arrived in.
