Two episodes in a row which sum up this season 4 of the show. Chair Model is devoid of any genuine laughs whereas this was one of the best and delivered arguably its most excruciating moment with Toby's gentle, ahem, fingering.

B+  is very generous. On rewatching this season it is evident just how ropey S4 is. There are very few laughs to be found in any of the stories and Michael's dating experiences were better done in the U.K version.

Wow - we jump from 150 or so comments to over 400 in the space of an episode on here.

The ping pong B story didn't amount to much. Not that it mattered - every line of dialogue with the deposition was gold.

Ugh this has to be my least favourite of the first 5 seasons, very few laughs.

Dwight maintaining the moustache disguise despite being busted was great however the whole prank plot felt rather weak.

Yeah that was an episode that sort of plodded along - still enjoyable if unmemorable. I did like Andy's continual frustration with trying to remember the jingle.

It's little moments like Pam's reaction to Jim's passionate kiss that I love about this show.

Retrospect view: The hour long format really doesn't work - they feel disjointed and doesn't have the brilliant consistency the half hour episodes had. Great opening though, I particularly enjoyed the group simply walking out on Michael mid flow once they had seen the box hit the corner.

Yeah this really was a hit and miss episode.I enjoyed the ongoing Ryan and Kelly saga, her joy at getting a date through announcing a fake pregnancy was brilliant. That, Creed's inkjet hair and Jim/Pam's 'it's over' conversation were all gold. However it is let down badly with the entire gift basket story, entirely

Just started watching S4 again. Was there really so few folk on here 5 years ago? Only 101 comments.

Yeah that was a satisfying start to the end. I enjoyed the first episode more than the 2nd but both had strong points. I do agree we need closure on Ted and Robin before things are wrapped up. Still not convinced it can pull off 24 episodes within this short time frame but time will tell.

Hey Bart come quick, there's a bakery on fire and all of downtown smells like cookies. You want to come smell?

After much deliberation they'll probably end up saying fuck it let's have a hybrid show of all 3 of our hits. The Walking Bad Men.

I'm happy enough with this idea but 2015 is too long a wait to watch the final stages of Don's decline.

I am not a fan of the first season however it does slowly but surely become a fascinating show. And don't give a fuck about what anyone else thinks - some work for you, some don't.

Whilst I certainly felt this season was an improvement on the last with the Genoa story and dropping the love triangle stuff it still always feels like one step forward, two back with the shot.

This line and 'he's spinning the ball' are probably my 2 most used Simpsons quotes. Usually in no context with the discussion I'm having, I just throw them in to make myself laugh.

Just checked season 9 episodes and there's 1 or 2 that I have no memory of - The Cartridge Family & Lisa the Skeptic.
