411415, Tonight's Office "Employee Transfer"...had its moments.
Posted by iboycottedimdb, Thu Oct-30-08 09:28 PM
More Daryl
Kellie as Carrie Bradshaw
Creed as the Joker
Kevin as the half-assed joker

But aside from that, I was underwhelmed.

The Dwight/Andy conflict started out quite humorous, but eventually lost steam.

Michael-Holly= started weak, gained momentum, ended humorously b/c of Daryl

Pam-Jim = ugh.

Michael and Holly were obviously the focus, and it was all fantastic (Singing that awful song, "Fourth time's the charm," the final goodbye). I agree that the Dwight/Andy shit started strong but lost steam. I was confused on what the point of the Pam/Jim subplot was supposed to be. It seems like they had the idea of having Jim's brothers giving Pam shit and Jim defending her, but it didn't go anywhere. "Pam cool, welcome to the family." Ok, that was nice, now what?

Still a good ep.

411492, puzzling and awful

the whole dinner was unfunny and awkward. pointless and dragged the episode down.

"...pointless and dragged the episode down."

It really did. This storyline is getting more and more tedious to watch with each week.

I liked this episode a lot.

Darryl in the car, had me dying.

Dwight killed me all nite.

Good ep
411498, Darryl and Michael in the end were hilarious.

I always love scenes w/them two.

Posted by Dae021, Fri Oct-31-08 02:22 PM
and Mike just looked at him, I was dying.

The whole bag exchange was just greatness.
411654, Yeah, I was getting a little miffed for Darryl, there.
Posted by iboycottedimdb, Sat Nov-01-08 07:02 AM
But I just love how he just fleeced it out.

411564, I'm telling you dog Dwight on the low
Posted by Dae021, Fri Oct-31-08 02:23 PM
The stats about Cornell's Qb was classic.

Angela's face when Dwight walked in was priceless.
411677, Dwight is the funniest in the office now
Posted by will_5198, Sat Nov-01-08 12:27 PM
Jim has grown unlikeable. his biting sarcasm was put to better effect when Pam made him look small every other episode. you let him be bitter b/c you felt bad for him.

conversely, now Dwight's the one you kinda feel for.
411679, Ironically, the cartoonier characters have more dimension.
Posted by Frank Longo, Sat Nov-01-08 01:07 PM
And Jim, supposedly the "real guy" in the office, is totally one-note.

I wouldn't mind seeing something terrible happen, and let Jim explore his dark side some. Something, ANYTHING, to give the man some color.
411710, Jim has really had no more than two great scenes so far...
Posted by iboycottedimdb, Sat Nov-01-08 05:49 PM
- Breaking out the whiteboard to explain Jan's baby situation.

- Timing Dwight on "non-related" work activity. That was more of the "old" Jim.

The whole Jim-Pam thing is really getting too soap opera-ish.

411843, EXACTLY!
Posted by Mole, Mon Nov-03-08 01:38 AM
I've been screaming (figuratively, of course) to see more sides of Jim other than the sarcastic romantic making faces at the camera. I want to see him get pissed at some point. We got a taste in his PA feud with Ryan which went nowhere and ended abruptly. I'm hoping by the end of this season, the tension with Pam they keep teasing then steering away from every episode leads to something, because I totally agree about the more cartoonish characters like Dwight and Michael being far more complex and interesting than he is.
411706, Naw, man. Creed has been killin' it, little seen as he is.

411912, If Dwight only had 2 scenes a show you'd say the same thing
Posted by Dae021, Mon Nov-03-08 11:39 AM
Dwight is killin it right now, and I agree with the folks above Jim is becoming 1 dimensional
411531, Dwight was killing it, in a Jim kind of way

411565, I feel you, he's sort of moved out his character
Posted by Dae021, Fri Oct-31-08 02:24 PM
Since Jim is now not nearly as cool since he's getting married to Pam.

Dwight is moving up the list.

One line in particular was prime "That's what she said." material. Too easy, I guess.

411632, was it something to the effect of "this is so hard"?
Posted by willydynamite, Fri Oct-31-08 10:20 PM
because in that situation in the van, he did start to say it but kinda trailed off, like "that's what sh..." in an almost whisper.
411704, I'm going to have to watch this again...

411742, wow...i always thought pam was pretty boring but Jim just joined her.

...he's just a really uninteresting guy aside from when he's fuckin wit someone...
