The Office - season 6 (1 Viewer)

[Craig S]

This was truly a great episode. Too many highlights to go over. Everyone in this great cast got a moment to shine.

Oh yeah, I am never getting ice from a hotel bin again!

Funniest show I've watched in a long time.
Every scene had me laughing out loud.
Creed eating his Lo Mein.
Andy ripping his scrotum.
Kevin wearing the tissue boxes.
Toby being hopeful there wasn't going to be a wedding.
Dwight kicking the maid of honor in the face.
Memaw.

Who is the blonde girl who played Pam's sister...so familiar..

Thanks Zack!!

Have to join in the chorus, a really solid and funny episode for an event 6 seasons in the making.

It was the very last beat of the episode, as the credits were rolling. The scene primarily tracks Kevin sticking his formally tissue-box-clad feet into the ice machine that Michael used as urinal, but then the camera pulls out of the vending room and lingers at a point down the hall where we see Pam's mom drag Michael into her room by his tie.

The wedding dance number was about the least funny thing I've ever seen on the show. Based on the dialogue, it was a nod to a You Tube video but I don't watch crap like that so it was a joke that completely missed me. What's worse is how poorly such a big event in the course of the series will age.

The youtube video was a huge viral hit (as big as those things can get) so not seeing would change the dynamic of the scene. I assume the writers thought most of the show's audience had seen the video.

yes it will age. But they know that. It's tacky now. It's cheesy now. It's hopelessly dated with its song, but that's part of it all.

I'm sure most of the audience has seen that video and it makes sense that the Dunder Mifflin employees would have forwarded it to each other too and would all be familiar with it. I'm just out of the You Tube viral video loop.

I didn't see the video either, and so didn't really get the joke, but in the end I don't think it matters, snice that wasn't their "real" wedding. The shots with them on the Maid of the Mist were the real wedding, and both actors did a tremendous job with it.

EDIT: Found the original:

FWIW, I never saw the youtube wedding video and thought the last 8mins of the Office were fantastic. It had that season or even series finale thing to it and thought it was just an outright outstanding last series of scenes. The Dwight kick was his best move since The Spin Move. I also saw the original JK wedding entrance after because of the Office and thought that was fantastic in its own right.

You also had the 3 Wolfs T-shirt reference in the episode for those hating dated stuff.

I completely disagree. I never saw the YouTube video either, but to me, having all the characters break loose and have fun gave the end of the episode a celebratory feel that transcends the song and YouTube reference. It seemed to me to be saying that the getting married part is a personal thing, but the wedding is for the rest of the people in your life. Jim and Pam took care of the part that was important to them to allow everyone else to just be what they are.

It did feel a bit like breaking the fourth wall, though, since the show's main characters were all dancing down the aisle while none of the other guests (non wedding party people) were.

Is Erin looking hotter with each new episode or what? It also looks like she and Andy will be sitting in a tree soon...

OK. I missed that Michael used the ice machine as a urinal. I thought he was just trying to smooth out his pants not taking a whiz.

Thank you for the final beat description! My DVR crapped out for the last 30 seconds or so, and I missed all of that.

Overall, an A+ and perfect 10 for the episode.

I really enjoyed the episode as well...I thought they made it work even though I wasn't a fan of the fact that they were even having a wedding.

I had seen the YouTube deal before, but to tell you the truth I had forgotten about it until Jim mentioned it. I think it actually worked better for me having forgotten the YouTube bit. Knowing that brought it down a notch for me.

This episode would have made for a great SERIES finale.

I missed the Michael peeing in the ice as well - I thought he was just flattening his pants.

Not to mention more disgusting.

 

[Adam Lenhardt]

It's strange how often "funnier" and "more disgusting" go hand in hand.

I just watched this scene again and he definitely wasn't peeing. The ice machine door was closed. But I agree...your version would have been funnier!
