The Office Season 5 thread

I didn't this episode was that great, but Creed's line had me laughing the loudest.

[brettac1]

The thing that had me laughing the most was when that guy came into buy the Princess Unicorn and just put his hand on his forehead with his index finger pointing up.

[Roscoe Chill]

I'm with valpocrewsader, not very funny. Other than Dwight, and of course the 5 seconds of Creed per week, the show has stalled big time in my opinion.

[statman0007]

Is the show not back on until February? I'm in the contingent that thinks the season started slow, but the last four episodes or so have been classic.

I thought it was a great episode. My wife had just groaned "Oh Phyllis!" when she acted like the meek and old Phyllis and backed down from Angela at the end, and we both loved it when she immediately turned around and outed Dwight and Angela. Dwight's "don't look so surprised" line was by far the best of the episode, although I enjoyed the "orange vod-juice-ka" bit as well.

I agree with valpo, Creed's shadiness has been so overplayed that it's no longer funny, if it ever was to begin with. It's definitely the type of humor that I would expect from a mediocre CBS sitcom, not from The Office.

 

That said, I enjoy pretty much every episode of The Office. Some are worse than others, but they all have a certain level of quality.

I would like a full episode on what Creed does after work. I think they could just follow him around for a whole show and it'd be pretty funny.

Wow... last night's episode was interesting. And in my opinion, it ended the best way possible. I thought the beginning with the speed gun was great. That's something I could really see Michael doing. But I was worried about how the whole Andy/Angela/Dwight thing was going to play out. I like the Dwight/Andy slight feud/competitiveness angle, and was worried if Angela chose one or the other they would start hating each other. But all in all, I thought it was a pretty good episode. The Michael at corporate thing was kind of weird though. What did Wallace really think he was going to get out of Michael?!

[homer]

Meh - I thought it was OK. Nothing great.

[patrickgpe]

yeah wallce trying to get michael's secret out of him was great.

the radar thing at the beginning funny

 

and like usual creed had the best line when he said you're welcome when andy thanked everyone for not telling him about angela and dwight. Don't know why i found it to be so funny, minus that it came from Creed.

[pitchleague]

I thought Merideth was golden last night. She had 3 tremendously funny lines.

 

Creed's single line was also great. Kelly's line, too.

 

Except for the speed gun thing, the whole first half of the episode was kinda slow and dull. But it picked up towards the end.

[Chio151]

Yeah, the whole duel thing got silly. Not my favorite episode at all. They've really watered down Jim's character. Also, Dwight is funnier when is more of a side character.

[Glennron]

I thought they could've made the Dwight/Andy feud a lot funnier, it wasn't all that great. They could've at least thrown a Cornell reference in there.

[BrewCrewForever]

Creed, Merideth and Kelly were great. The speed thing with Michael was funny. A solid episode, liked the ending with Andy and Dwight both ditching Angela.

[Oldcity]

Kevin's line was awesome. "I made a whorish decision on this document" or something like that.

[Fatter than Joey]

I watch every episode twice.

 

I missed the first time... When Andy is canceling his wedding plans, Dwight is watching Andy make the call in a soup spoon taped to his monitor.

 

That was hilarious.

[Oldcity]

Wow that's hilarious. I never noticed that either.

[GoudaBrew]

I did not enjoy last night's episode very much. One of the worse ones I can remember. I do usually watch them twice (I like them better the 2nd time usually), but I might not bother with this one.

[Invader3K]

I actually enjoyed the one last night a lot. The Swank debate was amusing, and I liked Dwight at the other paper company's office.

[pitchleague]

I thought Kevin was money last night. Most of his quotes I can't post here but they were golden. Also Dwight chasing Michael through the building was great, especially Michael running back up to his office just to get his keys.

[And That]

Single cell shark.

[Marc Newfield of Dreams]

I loved the Hillary Swank debate. I think I've actually debated that before... I fall on the not side.

[statman0007]

Stanley was this episode's star in my opinion. His scene plus the LOTR scene directly following were the only parts that made me laugh out loud.

[Gobias Industries]

I loved the Hillary Swank debate. I think I've actually debated that before... I fall on the not side.

Wasn't crazy about that being the main in-office plot, but they picked the perfect woman to have a debate on.

[BrewCrewForever]

I really liked all the Michael/Dwight stuff in the car and at Prince Paper. The Swank stuff was okay, but nothing great. Overall like most solid episode that was still my favorite and best thing I watched on TV this week.
