All its toilets drain out the bottom. Be thankful these don't come in Smell-O-Vision.

The Office could do finales extraordinarily well. "Hot Girl", to a certain extent, but certainly "Casino Night", "The Job", "Goodbye Toby", "Company Picnic", and - it's a finale in spirit - "Goodbye Michael" are not only standout episodes, but episodes that all share a similar sort of tension, a sense of stakes, a

When, through that haze of dust, I saw the spikes along Godzilla's tail slowly begin to glow, I knew I was watching the best film of 2014.

And Tom Chick returns, really stretching those acting muscles to play a snob.

He's the main character of Le Carre's first two novels, in which he's really just a detective who used to be a spy, and a peripheral character in the next two, which are proper spy novels.

I was hoping he'd someday make a brief return, in a sort of Frank Grimes/Charles Miner role, to throw the older and current incarnations of the show into contrast. Also he could make some comments about how everything seemed more brightly lit.

She's just the normal, not-mobbed-up one.

The business aspect wasn't always absurd, especially not early on. If it wasn't 100% realistic, it was realistic enough to convince, and deliberately so.

Product Recall is a relentlessly funny episode - easily one of the funniest in the series - but I could see it getting cold treatment for being sort of self-contained and not advancing anything story- or character-wise.

Stanley's exasperation over having an extra toaster is just a wonderful character moment.

Casey Klein wasn't asked back for a second year.

I'm glad they're getting another shot. I thought the first season was a little rocky but there was some really funny stuff in there.

Chris Tallman was his boss. He does absurd, booming voices really well.

I'm trying, but I don't know if I can say anything about the August Lindt episode without sounding like a hyperbolic shill. It was that funny.
