Synopsis:



I always enjoy it when Michael goes apeshit crazy about being invited to New York. They can be cringe-worthy painful to watch alot of times.

Re: The Office -- "Shareholders Meeting" -- 11/19/09
 

Reminds me of one of my favorite Office moments of all time:

Michael: Ah, there's my favorite NY pizza place.
*camera pans to a Sbarro's*

Re: The Office -- "Shareholders Meeting" -- 11/19/09
 

I love how Michael always sticks it to the higher-ups at the right moment.

Re: The Office -- "Shareholders Meeting" -- 11/19/09
 

Pretty funny episode. Jim putting Ryan in the closet was hilarious, and it was good to see Michael actually stand up for himself. I really wanted Oscar to go off on a rant though and actually list some great things they could do to save the company. Dammit, Oscar.

Really enjoying this season so far but this ep not so much.

Re: The Office -- "Shareholders Meeting" -- 11/19/09
 

Yeah, this ep had a few small laughs and that's it.

Re: The Office -- "Shareholders Meeting" -- 11/19/09
 

i thought it was a great episode.

Re: The Office -- "Shareholders Meeting" -- 11/19/09
 

i thought it was great as well. jim making an example out of ryan was great. was hoping oscar wouldve spoken up as well..

I guess Idris Elba wasn't available. It didn't make sense for Charles not to be there.

Oh, and it was GREAT to see the Chuck preview!

Re: The Office -- "Shareholders Meeting" -- 11/19/09
 

I hope Charles comes back eventually, just because I want Jim to somehow get sweet sweet revenge for him being a complete asshole to him.

who stole the Office I knew and loved
this season is so incredibly unfunny/uninteresting ... it will win no Dundie awards

Re: The Office -- "Shareholders Meeting" -- 11/19/09
 

I enjoyed it, only I wish Oscar had spoken up and been a part of saving the day. Looks like D-M is in more trouble than we thought. I still think Jim's supermarket client idea might help save them--it was too random to throw in there last episode if not.

Re: The Office -- "Shareholders Meeting" -- 11/19/09
 

Although, the name 'Recyclops' was amusing, the rest of that opening was pretty bad.

Not much funny in this episode, other than Ryan getting put in the closet.

I guess Michael's expression when they entered the hall to a chorus of boos was kind of funny, too.

Re: The Office -- "Shareholders Meeting" -- 11/19/09
 

I disagree. I like it just fine.

Re: The Office -- "Shareholders Meeting" -- 11/19/09
 

Yeah, I was disappointed, too.

Re: The Office -- "Shareholders Meeting" -- 11/19/09
 

Thank algore for that.

Re: The Office -- "Shareholders Meeting" -- 11/19/09
 

I chuckled at how as Jim narrated the flashbacks showing the brief year-by-year history of Recyclops the receptionist was different in each and every one.

Re: The Office -- "Shareholders Meeting" -- 11/19/09
 

I gotta say, I don't care about seeing DMI survive, since we've seen just how mis-managed this company has been since Season 1. However, I regret the fact that the writers did not take the opportunity to call out mis-managed corporate America on the clusterfuck they've created. I would have liked to see Michael at least regurgitate Oscar's talking points.

Anyway, I'll step down from my political soapbox now and just say that this was a pretty decent episode in the middle of a season that's been far improved from the last few.

Re: The Office -- "Shareholders Meeting" -- 11/19/09
 

I don't get why the company just did not implement a 45 point plan.

Re: The Office -- "Shareholders Meeting" -- 11/19/09
 

First time I've ever said this about an Office episode, but this one was just plain stupid and downright boring. One, maybe two laughs tops.

Re: The Office -- "Shareholders Meeting" -- 11/19/09
 

Bored. To. Tears.

Re: The Office -- "Shareholders Meeting" -- 11/19/09
 

To anyone who found this episode disappointing, it's my fault. Typically, I work until 9pm on Thursdays so I usually have to watch down the road. Not last night. It seems like every time I get to watch an episode "live", it winds up being a disappointment. There were a few chuckles here and there but aside from those, this ep really didn't have much going for it.

Re: The Office -- "Shareholders Meeting" -- 11/19/09
 

Nice touch with the suite guards having handheld metal detectors.

DMI: down 6 7/8, trading at 1 1/8 (or whatever)

Re: The Office -- "Shareholders Meeting" -- 11/19/09
 

That last part with the stock price was a nice touch. I had to explain it to my friends though ;p.

This was an okay episode. I feel like the series is starting to be less "zany", which is a good thing. The first season was almost unwatchable.

Re: The Office -- "Shareholders Meeting" -- 11/19/09
 

Likewise. I've been enjoying this season more than most, apparently, but this was the worst episode of The Office since Phyllis' soulcrushingly unfunny wedding.
