Either the photo on the first post isn't from this episode, or it contains a big spoiler.

I hope her hair is back to normal too. And am I the only one who didn't know that Rashida Jones is the daughter of Quincy Jones & Peggy Lipton?

If you're a big fan of the show, yeah, pretty much. If you're just a casual viewer, then, no......

Well, I'm not really afraid of what my e-quaintances think...

I think he's pretty funny. He's so gay. His interactions with people are great.

Is that Fischer in the GG picture? She looks like a less frumpy Rachel Dratch.

You know Andy is a complete douche when even Michael looks at him like he's an idiot.

This show wasn't the funniest overall, but it had some of the biggest laugh out loud moments ever.

Plus the Jim/Karen conversation was what we'd all been waiting for.

Michael's mannerisms around Andy were awesome. The pure hatred that he was exuding was hilarious.

The worst part of the episode was the fact that Ryan is still on the show and still a douche. What the hell is his role in the show? Yeeccch.

Haha I loved the fact he was doing the monolouge back there and Andy still couldn't figure it out.

Furthermore they give the guy opening credit billing. Yeah he writes and produces, but so does Kaling...and she's had more screen time overall. I wonder how she feels about that.

Anyway, as usual I enjoyed the episode; my favorite part would probably have to be Andy stalking Michael around the office. Michael's voice-over along with the actual footage of Andy frantically searching the office was hilarious.

Gotta love the An Officer and a Gentleman reference when Michael went to get Dwight back from his new job...complete with Up Where We Belong playing in the background.

Dwight waving off the blindfold as if it were some kind of advantage for a pinata was hilarious.

Another pretty good ep tonight. Much like the last few weeks, not a lot of hilarious moments, but a few good chuckles. I am happy to see that slowly but surely, the show is getting back to the low key, charming tone of humor that made it so great for the first two seasons, after a few misfires in the earlier part of this season that had me worried.

It was cool to see Oscar return. And hear Phyllis's explanation of why she and Dwight didn't get along: "We both have big personalities."

Yeah, it's strange that every time I've seen her outside of the show recently, she looks like a completely different person. I understand that she adopts a certain style for the purposes of the show, but it is weird how different she looks out of character. I find that I definitely prefer her in "Pam" mode myself.

The phone up in the celing was pretty funny. I liked how the camera kept going back and fourth between Jim and Pam to see which one of them was calling it.

Michael hiding behind the door was great too.

I dont think this show has misfired yet, Another excellent episode, some funny laugh out loud moments and great to hear Jim tell Karen he still has feelings for Pam. Dwight was funny in Staples. Micheal hiding from Andy was great. I liked the little moment too where Kevin telling Oscar about his "Gayaction" joke.
