Wow, somebody missed an episode this season.

2 people. Miss a little, miss a lot.

I think NBC is only showing the Olympics in Primetime for the entire month of February, so there may not be too many more episodes left this season.

Certainly haven't missed an episode, but I must of missed the forum transition where the movie script spelling would be required use over the actual spelling.

The Olympics are only 2 weeks.

It's not required use. It wasn't even agreed upon. Everybody just started spelling it like that in the discussions after that ep cuz it's more funny.

Good point.

Exactly. Just a running gag.

well, that REALLY sounds like you missed an ep. but, whatever.

Yeah, I wasn't really making the proper connection when I wrote that. My bad.

to Chew's sig.

what was the line Steve Carrell spoke while the black guy was on the phone? something about ordering a hamburger? I had to rewind that back a few times.

I think it was "I'd gladly pay you Tuesday for a hamburger today" (Whimpy from Popeye).

Also very good: "It was a hate crime. Stanley knows what I'm talkin' about."

I love Stanley's pass-aggressive reactions to Michael.

I also liked it when Micheal took the money down from the plague when the black guy passed by it.

Still the opening stare from Micheal had me laughing all the way through the credits.

ahh, that makes sense.


good stuff

Loved the picture of long haired Michael with the deer in the headlights look on his face.

Was the girl that Jim was asking out on the phone the new girl from corporate on the booz cruise or the girl he was already with on the cruise?

Had to be the girl from corporate because he said he got her number from the company directory

I see. If she does show up soon it would be interesting to see how Jim/Pam deal with that.

I'm thinking she won't be part of things. After Jim saw Pam and Roy together, eating lunch and all, he must have figured he should get over Pam and find someone else. When it turned out Pam was calling him all day long, he realized she still wanted to at least be friends, so I'm thinking it'll go back to their relationship from before.

The opening sequence had me rolling....I couldn't stop laughing. As for the rest of the show, there was some funny moments, but not as much as previous episodes.

My fave show on television by far.

I don't think I saw anybody mention it in the thread, but somebody may have -- the show has been picked up for a full season next year.

What I don't get is how NBC can say that the finale is in March so Carrell can go film a movie. That seems incredibly unfair to me. Did they get the number of episodes they ordered? If so, it is their choice when they air them. They could have strung them through May quite easily, particularly when you consider that they have the Olympics to fill time.

It was great to see Ken Howard. I have loved him since my brother and I discovered The White Shadow ages ago. They ruined Crossing Jordan when they made it CSI-lite and went away from the serialized concept that included him.

I also loved the Joe Rogan reference as a huge Newsradio fan. In the early days, I did actually watch Fear Factor just to see Joe.

Next time I make a $100 bet, I'll make sure that I only have $83 in my wallet.
