The Office: Season Four - Page 10

Re: The Office: Season Four

Ryan was mad at Jim because Jim went over his head at the company talking to Ryan's boss about some new ideas or sales or something two or three episodes ago.

Pam thought Jim was going to propose because of the fireworks, when the fireworks went off and ANDY proposed, naturally she would assume she was mistaken.

Re: The Office: Season Four

Speculation on next season: Jim gets Ryan's job and heads to New York where Pam is? They could be the spin off?

Or not.

hillarious moment when Andy proposed on the MIC but pulled the whole keyboard off the stage

Re: The Office: Season Four

My thoughts exactly. Jim being Michael's boss would open up a whole world of possibilities.

Or not.

Re: The Office: Season Four

Ryan's jealousy of Jim and overall jerkiness first manifested itself when he took over Jim's sales position when Jim transferred to the other branch. He made a subtle dig about Jim when he shared he was no longer a temp.

Re: The Office: Season Four

You guys missed the best line of all...

"Its easy to get in, but impossible to rise up"

"thats what she...a lot of places are like that"

Re: The Office: Season Four

Yes, I did notice that he managed to restain himself on the "That's what she said!" He couldn't even do it in the midst of the fight with Jan at the dinner party.

Re: The Office: Season Four

At what point did Angela and Dwight get back together?

Re: The Office: Season Four

It was in the post-break coda that usually ends the show. Mrs. Vance walks in on them foolin' around.

This was on SNL last night: NBC.com > Saturday Night Live Great stuff!

Re: The Office: Season Four

I got to thinking about the parts of the finale where Jim called Ryan to stand up for himself. The timing compared to Ryan's arrest seemed interesting. I could chalk Jim's actions up to adrenaline over deciding to pull the trigger on proposing to Pam, but it felt like more of a plot point. So, I'm curious if the writers are intending to heat up something between Ryan and Jim, with Ryan thinking that Jim turned him in?

Re: The Office: Season Four

I thought along similar lines, Derek, but I was wondering whether Jim had said anything that could be incriminating (or claimed to be incriminating by Ryan) that might get him in trouble later on.

And here we all thought Ryan was going down for drug use.

Re: The Office: Season Four

Oh, I was just thinking that Ryan will go into the next season having a personal vendetta against Jim.

Re: The Office: Season Four

It really struck me how completely INAPPROPRIATE that comment is, especially coming from HR (whose job it is to know what's appropriate in the office). That was our first clue that Holly will be no "regular" HR person, and that there is much more to come from this character. I love Amy Ryan and I'm really glad that her character will have this depth.

Also, did everyone notice how when Michael was with her, he pretty much acted like a normal guy (level headed, and not over the top or offensive). He may just owe that to his talks with Jim. Since it was only one day, as far as Holly knows, Michael is a genuinely sweet, funny regular dude (not the weird, selfish, child-like moron he sometimes is).
I'm glad that in this episode we got to see the Michael that we can care about, and sympathize with again, the likable guy who just wants to do the right thing. It really broke my heart to see Jan in the show again. I'm so tired of her character. She's like dead weight. Not funny at all.

Re: The Office: Season Four

Not to mention pretty much attempting to pick up the boss.

Michael - Jim, I'm looking for some music that works on multiple levels. . .

Re: The Office: Season Four

I like the scene with Jim in Michael's office and the Dave Matthews song that John_Lee mentioned too:

MICHAEL: I've been downloading a lot of m3p's...

JIM: That's not it.

MICHAEL: ...to make Holly a mix tape CD.

JIM: Close.

Re: The Office: Season Four

And how validating must it have been for Michael when Holly reciprocated his Yoda joke with, "Hand me that curvy metal piece, you will." The look on Michael's face when she started playing his game with him was priceless.

Re: The Office: Season Four

Is it confirmed that Amy Ryan has joined the cast for next year?

Re: The Office: Season Four

Oh, yeah, forgot one of the moments from the finale that stuck to me... they got Pam on camera saying something like "Oh, I always thought he was cute!" in reference to Toby. I suppose this must happen to a lot of guys - hearing that some unrequited crush called them cute, since it ended up in the show. Here's my message to people who say such things: NEVER tell anyone a guy you are not dating is CUTE. It's frustrating and annoying to hear this!

Okay, rant over.

Re: The Office: Season Four

I belive he actually said "N3Ps", which is even worse/funnier.

Re: The Office: Season Four

What is an N3P?

Re: The Office: Season Four

Not sure how that's funnier.

You do realize that M3P is just as wrong?

Re: The Office: Season Four

Derek and I are of like minds. "Cute" is right up there with "I like you as a friend."

Re: The Office: Season Four

No, it's more wrong because he couldn't get the letters correct, regardless of order.

Re: The Office: Season Four

i've just gotten into the Office lately; i've watched bits of episodes over the years but it never really clicked for me. i remember actually watching the 1st season basketball episode when it first aired and not liking it; the Michael character reminded me of George Costanza at his worst. anyways, since i love 30 Rock, i started watching the last few minutes of Office before 30 Rock aired (kind of a reverse lead-in i suppose). i got used to the humour (and characters) and decided to give it a second chance.
holy crap, it's hilarious. i've watched the last 4 seasons in the last 2 weeks. with that kind of exposure i can say the writing's been pretty good all the way through.

also i don't like Toby leaving; the new character doesn't seem to have as much potential or originality. even though he didn't make that many appearances, every time he would show up it was gold. like Michael seeing him in the Finer Things Club ("i'm speechless") or in The Deposition, asking for an 11th copy and laughing at the Ryan thing.

i'm wondering if the show will create any obstacles for Jim & Pam now that they're finally together, unlike most sitcom pairings they don't have quirks or obvious personality disorders that will make for comic tension.

anyways, looking forward to getting these on Bluray someday. considering the cutting edge nature of this show's distribution, hopefully it will be soon.


"Mr. Scott, do you realize you just contradicted yourself. i did. yes you did. can i go to the bathroom. no. i really have to, i've been drinking lots of water. you went five minutes ago. that wasn't to go to the bathroom, that was to get out of a question. you still have to answer it. first can i go to the bathroom. no." (Michael looks at camera)

Re: The Office: Season Four

Well, here's my prediction for next season - Pam goes away for the summer and, because Jim failed to propose when she expected him to she becomes unsure about where their relationship is heading and falls for the very Jim-looking guy from Pratt. She might even return and dump Jim.

Re: The Office: Season Four

Good prediction, but I hope not...
