Thoroughly enjoyed the episode. Creed's quote about pirate code was funny. When Dwight said he would rather see Kevin's smiling face than save few hundred dollars...and the cameras pans to Kevin smiling. I was laughing pretty hard at that one.

thought it was a great episode too, i think i laughed more at this one than either community or 30 rock, which is rare these days.

12/3/2010 4:05:26 PM

I laughed most of the episode, was a good one.

12/3/2010 4:50:20 PM

A++?

best episode of the season. I liked the exchange with Pam on the street.

12/5/2010 12:21:01 PM

I lost it at:

"Are you watching this?"
"I'M RIGHT HERE."

From page 3, about The Christening:

Quote :

"I just didn't understand anything when it came to Toby at the church, was that supposed to go somewhere?"

I just rewatched Season 5, ep 26. Toby talks about how he was in seminary, but left to follow a girl named Kathy to Scranton. He took the HR position at DM despite having no passion for it, and Kathy eventually divorced him. I guess he still holds a grudge against God maybe?

Sorry, random.

Bump for tonight:
"Classy Christmas"

and the return of Holly Flax

12/9/2010 12:09:23 PM

I might watch it at air for the firs time in a year. It's 60 mins right?

12/9/2010 12:39:10 PM

^yup.

12/9/2010 12:43:53 PM

60 minute office eps tend to suck...they take a half hour idea and try to stretch it to double the length. You need a really good plot or two separate ones to make an hour show really work.

12/9/2010 12:46:34 PM

^exactly...the hour length ones are almost always disappointing

12/9/2010 12:58:08 PM

^ that's usually the case, but I have faith in tonights episode since their Christmas episodes are almost always great (with season three being the best)

12/9/2010 1:18:55 PM

The one with drunk Meredith was AWFUL. S3 was great though..

12/9/2010 1:40:20 PM

^ Isn't that all of them? Heh.

But yes, that one was annoying.

12/9/2010 2:16:36 PM

LOL! - Dwight.

12/9/2010 9:19:48 PM

this episode is delivering.

12/9/2010 9:41:30 PM

Dwight in the wig(s) had me rolling...

[Edited on December 9, 2010 at 9:48 PM. Reason : michael is being a dick, though, of course]

12/9/2010 9:48:02 PM

i'm halfway thru the episode right now, but holy fuck all those impressions/accents/etc, that's exactly like 2 of the girls up front at my office. everyday. all day.

12/9/2010 9:50:40 PM

I liked it. Not as good as S2 or S3 Christmas, but much better than S5/S6.

Is it me or did they hit the reset button on Pam? She is like not even the same character as last season -- actions or looks (not a bad thing either).

12/9/2010 10:00:42 PM

Awesome episode. Love mean Erin

12/9/2010 10:36:19 PM

Liked the episode. Erin is weird...but she always makes me laugh. They're really playing the "Kevin has the brain capacity of a child" card a lot more this season (maybe not, but it seems like it)...like Kevin freaking out about the maple candies. It's still funny, but seems more prevalent in this season than past seasons. I like Darryl a lot, but I couldn't really get into the storyline with him and his daughter.

Still, very good episode IMO.

12/9/2010 10:41:10 PM

Lol at Kevin (accountant) not knowing what a comptroller is.

12/9/2010 10:59:27 PM

Last two episodes have been very solid. Gives me some hope for the show after Carell leaves, as he's been the worst part of the show lately.

12/9/2010 11:23:23 PM

lololol tonight...all the snowmen at the end of the episode and dwight dressed up like meredith

12/10/2010 12:09:15 AM

what happened at the end when the parking lot was full of snowmen? my dvr always cuts that off.

12/10/2010 12:49:27 AM

dwight made a funny comment that went something like "the best snowball is fear" as jim was beating the crap out of the snowman and dwight watched from on top of the building

[Edited on December 10, 2010 at 12:54 AM. Reason : asdf]

12/10/2010 12:54:20 AM

I really liked how Dwight exacted some revenge onto Jim after years of torment. What made me LOL was when Holly said that Jim and Dwight were the best of friends when she left. Both Dwight and Jim looked at the camera like . And the ending was great, of course. All those snowmen. LOLOLOLOL!

12/10/2010 1:35:00 AM

my favorite line was jim asking why they were so quick to rule out woody coming to life

12/10/2010 4:07:34 AM

Good episodes two weeks in a row, and one was an hour long. Never would have seen that coming.

Dwight and the wigs was the best thing they've done in years.

12/10/2010 7:45:10 AM

Haha I liked when Holly said she ate some of the Maple sweets and it zoomed in on Kevin's smile fading. btw, the whole time I was expecting Jim to get Dwight back hardcore but I guess Dwight needs to win sometimes.

12/10/2010 9:57:30 AM

I liked how Dwight's attacks drew laughs and cheers, and Jim's failed attempt made him look like an asshole. I expected Jim to punch or tackle Dwight. He's shown a history of not being able to handle adversity.

[Edited on December 10, 2010 at 10:02 AM. Reason : x]

12/10/2010 10:02:20 AM

I keep thinking Angela's new boyfriend is about to put on some horn-rimmed glasses and pull out a gun.

I wonder if Oscar's assertion that he's gay will go anywhere.

Also, I liked Dwight's catapult in the gift box, it seemed like exactly the kind of thing Jim would do, but apparently Jim can't take a taste of his own medicine.

Why is Holly back? I thought the Scranton Strangler case was only going to keep Toby away for a week...

12/10/2010 10:34:13 AM

I, too, could not get HRG out of my head. Heroes screwed up his career, now he's never going to be able to be seen as anything else.

12/10/2010 11:09:28 AM

Erin repeatedly pointing out that Holly isn't exactly a knockout was hilarious to me...

"Sorry, I can't help you, I'm waiting for Michael's pretty girlfriend to show up"

"I don't get it, is she a really good cook or something?"

12/10/2010 11:41:33 AM

Holly's new haircut was not doing her any favors. Not attractive on her at all.

I also enjoyed Erin's: "I'm sorry... I JUST DON'T SEE IT!"

12/10/2010 11:49:02 AM

Holy shit the ending was hilarious. Definitely one of the best episodes.

on the other hand, his career wasn't very spectacular before Heroes.

lol at this little coincidence though:

Quote :

"Coleman's first major role was in the soap opera, Days of our Lives, where he appeared from 1981 to 1982 as the character of Jake Kositchek (aka The Salem Strangler)"

12/10/2010 2:20:04 PM

Dwight's wig collection was the best part.

12/10/2010 3:34:31 PM

i LOVE hrg

12/10/2010 3:52:26 PM

haha erin was hilarious.

and the end with dwight looking down from the roof was amazing.

12/10/2010 4:17:08 PM

ITT aaronian points out that the trial of the scranton strangler will return an innocent verdict, and the senator will kill Michael in the series finale to write him out

12/25/2010 12:42:16 AM

Man NBC sure is taking their time unveiling their new back to back to back to back to back to back comedy hour

Interested to see if 6 comedies in a row work together...seems like overkill

1/14/2011 9:24:04 AM

what's the 6th gonna be?

i know parks and rec is coming back, but that leaves 5 (that I know of)

1/14/2011 9:52:53 AM

some new show that looks a lot like friends sandwiched b/t parks and rec and outsourced

1/14/2011 9:55:16 AM

yeah the show with Olivia Munn and the chick from It's Always Sunny

I just looked at the listings though - I thought Parks & Rec was at 8:30. It's showing it as Community, Perfect Couples, Office, P&R, 30 Rock, Outsourced

1/14/2011 10:36:54 AM

P-Rex gets the 9:30 after the Office lead in. Which should be perfect.


I'll watch my 2 hours of comedy and turn the channel at 10.

1/14/2011 10:56:19 AM

^^you are probably right; I was basing my order on a graphic from a blog

I wish they'd line it up so that perfect couples and outsourced are in the first hour but that'd be a horrible mistake on NBC's part

The sneak peek of Perfect Couples they aired back in December was kinda funny, definitely better than Outsourced. Also I thought this was an amusing tweet:
