Why was this never a topic at the Finer Things Club? It's as if they haven't worked together for almost ten years.

Nope. They basically haven't said anything about Pam being gone except for a quick mention by Jim that she was on maternity leave a few episodes back.

There was also a deleted scene from Season 3 where Andy explained how he lived with a dominatrix for several years. I want that guy back.

Especially since there was no real reason for him to show up at all. "Can't make it tonight. I've got two young kids at home." pretty much solves the problem.

That and a quick bit with them playing guitar and banjo trying to impress her has been the sole extent of their "duel" over Erin two and half years ago. Not exactly a storyline. Trying to get us to believe that Dwight is suddenly now interested in her is the kind lazy work the show does these days.

Don't forget last year's Viewing Party, which was also a giant shit stain. This is the first review of Myles' that I agree with every point. The tedious Andy/Erin stuff just has to stop. They haven't been compelling since Season 5 when this started. There were just way too many stories going on here and not one of

If by Erin you mean Angela then yes.

Yes, if you like completely contrived will they/won't they melodrama in which the two characters have no chemistry and the reasons they aren't in relationship make less sense than a Rick Perry debate performance.

I have to disagree. The line of the night was Dave yelling "Uncle Rich!" after Max and Alex smothered him with a pillow. What exactly did Uncle Rich do to him as a child?

I know, right? The Big Dave looked awesome.

That thing was huge!

Penny's delivery of "Did you hang onto that bumper pool table? Because I sure did." killed me.

Well, I sure hope they find some reason for Robert California to be on the show soon. Right now he is a comedy black hole.

No, but his explanation about how it was the perfect cure for his crippling fear of flying was funny. These days that is all you can ask for. Myles, your disappointment that Ryan missed an obscure opportunity for continuity is hilarious given that the show can barely remember what it's major characters personalities

Work It? Really? Well, I guess there had to be one person out there.

Some people have unrealistic expectations.

I'm starting a class action law suit to sue NBC for my time spent watching Heroes after Season 1. They owe me big. Anyone else want to get onboard?

This is why I'm still watching The Walking Dead. I don't find the world they are depicting very compelling especially the second season where the zombie threat almost disappeared, but coming on here and mocking Dale or Lori is cathartic.

Turn back the clock? More like invent a whole new show. You've gotten rid of Angela, Phyllis, Gabe, Darryl and Ryan. Also, I forgot which of the past seasons had Jim and Pam hate each other. I'm always amused at the number of folks who think destroying a happily married couple with two young children would be a good

How do either of your examples make Pam a jerk? In the first, she was trying to get out of a pointless meeting which almost anyone would like to do and in no way affects the other members of the office. Same for her giving herself the office administrator position. She hated sales, but didn't want to lose her job. Did
