After walking home in the rain barefoot this morning, I was anxious to go to bed. However, since the fact that I made it home in one piece was cause for celebration, I decided to stay up and watch this week's Office. The first thing I noticed was that there were 2 new episodes, both 30 min long. Thought it was kinda dumb they didn't just make it an hour long episode, but I figured they'd had their reasons. The second thing I noticed was how similar Michael's behaviour Jim and Pam's wedding was to the way he acted at Phyllis': outbursts, "saving" family members, general idiocrasy...not to mention the double ceremony idea being stolen from How I Met Your Mother. "Oh, everything's too stressful, things are going wrong, let's just have a secret ceremony before the public one!" Really, writers? Again? And once again we found ourselves witnessing a dance-off between Andy and Kelly, thought, granted, the first one in Cafe Disco didn't end with Andy going to the hospital with a torn scrotum....
The episodes felt so forced, like they were trying to shock you at each corner. Michael and Pam's mom? Dwight and Pam's best friend? And then wrapping it all up with the ripped off YouTube video...come now, Office. I think you could've done much better with something fans have been waiting 6 years to see.
