I thought Roy's spaz was a completely transparent move by the writers to move the Jim/Pam plot forward.

Yeah thats what I kinda thought as well. Roy is not supposed to be the nicest guy but I've really seen nothing in his character to suggest him flipping out like that. Also the whole "Jim Halpert will pay" thing at the end was a little stupid IMO.

Well, he's really only been a nice guy this season as he's been trying to win back Pam. Before that he was always portrayed as the testosterone-laden dumb guy. It's not totally out of character.

 

That said, it wasn't done well and just made everything uncomfortable.

The Office might occasionally miss on a few cylinders, but it is the only show I can look forward to seeing right now.

 

Creed's fake ID bit was my favorite part of this episode.

I liked Toby getting shut out by Pam -- "Don't you have a daughter?"

 

I also missed the part when they asked about the merger and Jim's date said "everyone quit or got fired" -- does that mean Andy's gone, or did I miss something.

 

I'm looking forward to Dwight hosting SNL.. He is the sort of actor that usually does well in that scenario.

I thought it was pretty funny when Roy's brother started breaking stuff too.

Yeah, that was funny. He just started breaking stuff for no reason and yelled out "jet skies!".

I just wanted to mention that Roy's brother Kenny was played by Apple-ton native and Fellow Brewer fan Mike McGill, who is an acquaintance of mine

There's lot's of stuff in season 1 that implies that Roy is a hot-headed douchebag. I recall at the end of the Pilot episode when Jim and Pam were talking about going out for a drink as a group after work, Roy was holding a big black plastic bag of somthingand Jim asked him "what's in the bag?" and Roy wouldn't respond...The basketball game where Roy was getting too aggressive...the Alliance episode when Roy was ready to fight Jim because he was too close to Pam...

Ya i agree. I'm not looking forward to the whole Roy vs Jim thing, I find that all pretty annoying. Why can't they go back to the smart humor that they had for every episode of season 2??? Don't get me wrong, 3 has had its shining moments, like Dwights return, business school, and the one where the branch is gonna close and Dwight and Micheal try to save it. But the problem with season 3 is they are trying to make too much happen. The magic of 1 and 2 was that so little happened, yet so much funny occurred. (Not really sure if thats corect English)

I think they want the office to be the next friends. http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/smile.gif

 

I'm not a big TV show guy but for awhile there, I was loving Lost, Office and Earl. Now, Lost is unwatchable garbage, Earl's format has gotten a bit stale and The Office, while still good, is a bit sketchy at times. O well, baseball starts soon!

Wow, you nailed it. Nothing gold can stay, I guess.

do you ever watch any of the great shows on HBO?

 

All of Six Feet under, most of the Sopranos and Oz. I was referring more to network TV. HBO is great.

I got bored and found the UK Office special features for download. They are hillarious. Also, rewatching Season 1 Episode 4 of the UK Office cracks me up everytime.

I thought it was a great episode tonight. Couple of laugh out loud moments. The bear in the cop uniform on the certificate was a good touch.
