A few funny bits, but overall another really, really weak episode. It's as if the writers have no clue where to take the characters this last season. No idea why they continue to give us Nellie story lines. No idea why they apparently want to set up Erin with Plop. No idea why Andy's a complete douche again. No idea why all the fake drama with Jim and Pam.

Re: The Office -- "Here Comes Treble" -- 10/25/12
 

The scene of Andy telling the snowman story to the group is the funniest scene on The Office in the last year. That was really great.

Also loved Tobey getting a hardon for Nelly when she was dressed as him, and the magic going away once she removed the costume.

The Dwight scene of Dwight smearing the peanut butter on his face was embarrassing. He might be my least favorite character on the show.

Oh, and how great was it when Dwight mentioned his family? They sound like a wacky bunch! Maybe they'll have them visit the office one episode! That would be hilarious!

Creed splattered in blood and not knowing it was Halloween was good. The rest? not so much.

Re: The Office -- "Here Comes Treble" -- 10/25/12
 

What did Creed mouth to the camera?

Re: The Office -- "Here Comes Treble" -- 10/25/12
 

I thought he said "that's what she said," which cracked me up.

Re: The Office -- "Here Comes Treble" -- 10/25/12
 

I know it's not saying much, but this was probably my favorite episode of the season so far.

Re: The Office -- "Here Comes Treble" -- 10/25/12
 

It would be awesome if Jim was being conned.

Re: The Office -- "Here Comes Treble" -- 10/25/12
 

Creed's bloody shirt and the "perfect timing" of Halloween was the highlight!

Re: The Office -- "Here Comes Treble" -- 10/25/12
 

I'd be shocked if Jim isn't being conned after that episode last night.

The new kid ass kissing to Andy is pretty funny.

Kevin as Charlie Brown is kinda funny.

"Buts are for pooping."

Thats about it.

Another sucktacular season thus far.

What?? and not end up a facebook millionaire?? Don't you know that if you invest in a startup you will always become rich -ohbfrank-

I think that would be a great twist, but I don't think the writers have the guts.

I was at Universal Studios a week ago and I was selected to be a test viewer and watch the pilot of the Dwight spin off - I have been meaning to create a post about it - and I will, but have been busy. So be on the lookout for it :)

Re: The Office -- "Here Comes Treble" -- 10/25/12
 

I could see them trying to setup Jim being conned, but in the end, Dwight of all people saves him from losing their life savings.

Re: The Office -- "Here Comes Treble" -- 10/25/12
 

Anyone wish they would do a Creed spinoff instead of Dwight?

Re: The Office -- "Here Comes Treble" -- 10/25/12
 

That would be good, and this will help the audience gain an emotional connection to Dwight and maybe help them gravitate toward his spinoff.

However, I think that the more likely scenario will be Pam (the wise mother / wife) jumping in to save the family from the bone headed white male ( father / husband).

Re: The Office -- "Here Comes Treble" -- 10/25/12
 

This season makes me miss Robert California. I wish they would have just kept him on instead of turning Andy into an A-Hole.

Re: The Office -- "Here Comes Treble" -- 10/25/12
 

A show would never do that, would it? Jim's just going to commit to $10,000 just like that? Really?

I agree: Andy as a jerk is not funny; it's annoying to watch. It's hard to explain why, but the Michael/Toby stuff was great, but Andy saying to Toby,"Why are not murdered every day?" comes across horrible. Same with his treatment of Nelly.

Creed's comment about not knowing it was Halloween was the best, as was his line last week when he got on the work bus wearing that hat...

Re: The Office -- "Here Comes Treble" -- 10/25/12
 

I liked Andy's costume.
Was Broccoli Rob in Michael's condo ?

Re: The Office -- "Here Comes Treble" -- 10/25/12
 

He said he lived near Cornell.

Re: The Office -- "Here Comes Treble" -- 10/25/12
 

I liked Stanley's Usain Bolt costume.

Re: The Office -- "Here Comes Treble" -- 10/25/12
 

Terrible. Ugh.

Re: The Office -- "Here Comes Treble" -- 10/25/12
 

I liked Colbert. I liked Creed. I like to see what's going to happen with Jim's venture.

Everything else is a chore to watch. But I'm in too far to stop watching. Just get this season over with. I've been hating 30 Rock this year, too.

Re: The Office -- "Here Comes Treble" -- 10/25/12
 

Man, I totally missed that. Now I want to go back and look again.

Re: The Office -- "Here Comes Treble" -- 10/25/12
 

Michael was an awkward normal guy who hated Toby because he thought he kept the office from being "fun." Andy is that privileged kid who just comes across as bullying the guy for no reason. No one likes that guy.
