Slumbering Fist

Yeah, the girl you are thinking about from 30 Rock was a different actress, the girl who played Tammy "Copperhead" Littlenut on Strangers With Candy.

That video is stupid and not funny at all.

jeffkjoe

This episode was not that funny.
A disappointment.

Chalk me up for "loved it". Loved all the dancing by Michael and the 'Nard-dog. Also thought that Dwight was in rare form telling Bob Vance when asking to "steal" his wife for a dance that he cannot steal what is legally his property.

Why does every episode have to have a point?

cdollaz

I'm not sure. It's a comedy. Did every (or any) Seinfeld episode have a point.

kstublen

Exactly. This was just a fun episode and people aren't willing to enjoy it for what it was.

Draven

I would settle for "funny" and/or "interesting". This episode was neither to me. So basically, it was a waste to watch, and that is very unusual for me and The Office.

Eh, I thought it was a nice little break. I also liked the back and forth with Jim and Pam about how to have their wedding.

Dwight's prank was also amazingly hilarious, especially his psycho laugh.

cdollaz

Fair enough. There are some episodes that many people find funny that don't work for me. And characters, too. I know a lot of people think Stanley is very funny, but I rarely laugh at his lines.

cdollaz

Which prank? The only thing I remember is the part at the beginning.

Damfino

That was it. he bribed Lynn to say she won an art contest to make Pam jealous.

cdollaz

Dwight needs to leave pranks to those who can come up with good ideas, and then plan and execute them well. Of course, his ineptness made it a really funny scene.

I loved this episode because I connected with a lot of the jokes. I know dorky middle aged men who would play that crappy "Everybody Dance, Now" song and think it's hip. I know self-important college kids who dance-off at parties, and Kelly and the new receptionist crack me up. Not to mention Michael's botched text to Dwight about Phyllis:

"Michael, who's Phillip?"

"Oh my god, Phyllis, did Phillip push you over?!"

It was also good finally having an episode not bogged down in narrative exposition. It reminded me of season 2, when there seemed to be less conflict and more fun.

The Pam and Jim thing was the only strike out for me. It was completely unnecessary to tease with their marriage.

I think I might be in the minority but I am getting really tired of Micheal and enjoy the show more when I barely see him at all. Like when he is the catalyst for something and the office handles it. An episode I loved but didn't neccesarily match this was office olympics I could of fast forwarded through the micheal parts and still enjoyed it very much.

cdollaz

I'm the same way. There can definitely be too much Michael, especially when he is being a dick.

I thought it was a good prank, even if he did pay her two seconds into it. Pam definitely got agitated.

cdollaz

For me, a good prank is one that pisses someone off at first, but that they appreciate and laugh at a few minutes later. Also, it would be one that outside observers would think is funny. Dwight was just being a jerk and I doubt anyone else in the office would think it is funny.

I think the Office is better when "nothing happens". That's how the Office used to be when I really enjoyed it. I mean go back and watch episodes from the first 2 seasons, which in my opinion are the best and "nothing happens" in those either. I mean at the end of the last episode of season 2 Pam and Jim kiss, so that was somthing, but other than that usually ever episode was sort of it's own little thing. It's only been in last year or so that there have been storylines (Dwight/Angela/Andy, Michael/Jan, Jim/Pam, Michael Scott Paper Company/ new boss, etc) I liked it a lot better when there weren't continuing storylines and nothing happend in each episode.

I also love how the tub of Utz is still in the Cafe Disco.

JoeyOhhhh

I thought the same thing.

I loved the asshole prank Dwight pulled in the beginning, it was just outright hurtfull and not executed well at all.

I liked how Erin the new receptionist had her birth certificate in her purse for some reason, I also love Creed's line about the disco ball

Quack

The chick that showed up during the cafe disco that hugged the receptionist....I think it was Elisha Cuthbert.
