The Office - "The Convict" - 11/30/06




Spoiler:
Michael tries to be supportive when he finds out one of his new employees - presumably someone from the Stamford branch - has a prison record. Steve Carell, Rainn Wilson, Jenna Fischer, John Krasinski, B.J. Novak, Melora Hardin, Leslie David Baker, Brian Baumgartner, Kate Flannery, Angela Kinsey, Oscar Nuņez, Phyllis Smith, Paul Lieberstein and Mindy Kaling also star. Ed Helms ("The Daily Show"), Rashida Jones ("Wanted"), Ursula Burton ("The West Wing"), Mike Bruner ("C.S.I") and Wayne Wilderson ("The Class") guest star.


Tonight's episode was written by Ricky Gervais and Stephen Merchant, so it should be a good one.

anyone wat Las Vegas I thought a few weeks ago sam delinda and mary were talking and Danny and Mike reminded them that Dunder Mifflin will need more rooms at least thats what i thought I heard I rewinded and listened again and thought I heard the same thing. I know a cross-over would be great but I doubt i heard right.

Similar to Heroes having scenes set inside the Las Vegas casino. Quick references without actual crossovers.

I'm assuming that Michael will think the ex-con is the new black guy, but it will really be someone totally unexpected.

Spoiler:
I think it will be Andy and Dawight will be the one to discover it due to his connections in local law enforcement. Hopefully this doesn't mean the end of Andy but he was never signed for the full season.

Maybe the criminal stole a car to get to the SAT test.

It would have been more fitting coming from Andrea Planbee.

Yes, then I could ask her if it was more efficient to brush my teeth in my pajamas or my day clothes.

I'm going pajamas cuz if you get toothpaste on your day clothes... you're screwed.

Great episode. I almost forgot there was a new episode tonight until two minutes before it started. Glad I remembered.

"Rainbow Connection" had me shooting Two Buck Chuck (cab) out my nose.

Really good ep,
Spoiler:
in spite of it being rather predictable that it would be Martin for a white-collar crime.......


Great preview of 30 Rock with Baldwin and Krakowski, too.
