I don't think they did volleyball every year. They said the year before that they had played softball and Jim had the supposedly deadly spider in his mitt.

In previous years they played softball, based on Jim's story about the spider in his mitt.

He was one of those people who would be neither a follower nor a leader, but only an aspiring heart, impatient in the failing body which imprisoned it. -- T. H. White, "The Once and Future King"

Having been to a handful of emergency room visits with my wife, including those where any tests are being done (especially x-rays), the pregnancy question is standard operating procedure.

Even still, it gave it away to have it shown there. Everyone I know who watched it knew the pregnancy thing was coming as soon as it was brought up.

Yeah, I'm pretty sure that any woman of child bearing age gets a pregnancy before getting an X-ray. Like Joe though, I was immediately tipped to the pregnancy because no TV show is going to waste time on dialogue like that just to be technically accurate.

Re: The Office season 5

"Company Picnic" was an average episode with a very strong ending.

I echo what someone mentioned earlier about Michael. Just when you want to count him out as a total buffoon, he has a great introspective moment, and I care about him all over again.

The Jim and Pam ending blindsided me. I almost cried.
The Office has characters I really care about. That is very good writing, and acting.
This is the best show I've seen in years. I love it.

Heh, I thought the little bit with Toby's HR counterpart was funny.
