That was a bit much, but I kind of liked it because I like Ellie Kemper and her character so much.  It was also quite plausible that after seeing this documentary her parents would maybe want to reconnect, so I didn't mind it so much.  Especially with Ed Beagly Jr. being her dad, Stan Sitwell is always a favorite of…

I agree, but I guess it was inevitable that it would get out.  I always assumed he'd show up in some small way in the finale, but I thought they handled it great.  His appearance crept up on me and even though I knew he was going to be in the episode it was still pretty damn great and jarring when the camera turned…

Let's do this

Pam saying Michael had so many pictures of his kids that he bought two phones was I thought a perfect old Michael balance to the new and improved Michael.  I loved the new happy and content Michael, but it was nice to subtly see a glint of the old Michael. 

That was so well done, and such a perfect final "that's what she said."  I was so happy Michael was in the finale, it wouldn't have been the same without him.  Michael Gary Scott finally got the girl and had kids, and that's pretty epic in my book. 

I laughed and cried.  I thought it was a pretty good sendoff overall.  The only bad parts for me were the Kelly and Ryan crap, I can't stand those two and their parts felt shoehorned in and ridiculous.  Ryan abandons a baby at a wedding and Kelly is stupid enough to run off with him again?  Blech.

Wow, Ben Franklin you're kind of a sleazebag

Branch Wars had the Finer Things Club, and some of my favorite Oscar moments so I really liked that episode.  Michael's disgust with Toby as he walks in with his bowtie and china in his hand is priceless. 

@avclub-8ad297da4fc2cc28dfa3c0cb7df8ae63:disqus The only two things I ever agreed with Angela on were when she said; 1. "Jazz is stupid, just play the right notes.", and 2. Talking about Ryan and Kelly: "I hate those two people more than anything in the world."  I detested Ryan shortly after Business School, and Kelly…

Michael admitting during the deposition that he went to the bathroom to get out of answering a question and the look on his face when the transcript is being read back to him made that episode one of my top 10 favorites.  That episode was full of hilarious little moments, from Michael listening to Toby talk about his…

"That is over several months." 
"Still…"

I really liked Basketball as well, it had some good Pam and Jim moments plus Stanley's pitiful dribbling exhibition and Kevin being a surprisingly good shooter.  That was the first episode I saw and it drew me in right away.

In fairness, the assessment was accurate.  I do appreciate the snark though, and as always I read it in my head in the voice of Comic Book Guy. 

It's a shame too, because Andy had some really funny moments on this show before the writers took him on their warping personality tour to his current awfulness.  Him dancing around and blowing the air horn while Dwight battled the computer in Launch Party, plotting against Dwight when he moved from Stamford, and…

Wilford Brimley and I don't even care who would play his mom, it would be worth it to see crusty Wilford Diabeetus Brimley play father to Creed Bratton. 

So, what line of work are you in Bob?

Michael had it wrong all these years.  Angela is the worst, not Toby. 

Haaaa I forgot about the cat in that drawer, good eye!

So tough to choose just 10, Casino Night was terrific and I really loved the Michael Scott Paper Company.  Probably should have made it 20…

Favorite Office episodes?  My top 10 are: 1. The Dundees, 2. The Client, 3. Dinner Party, 4. The Deposition, 5. Booze Cruise, 6. Basketball, 7. The Injury, 8. Christmas Party, 9. Goodbye Michael, 10. Email suveilance, if only for Michael and Jim singing "Islands in the stream" together.
