The Office - Season 4

[sbrylski]

First four episodes will be an hour long!

awesome, i bought season 3 on dvd last week and have been enjoying the deleted scenes and such. only 17 more days till the premiere.

[wisconsinfan47]

I'm excited, but this could easily be a huge "jump the shark" season.

 

Then again, the same could've been said about Season 3 pertaining to the Jim and Pam kiss and the Stamford Branch closing, which I thought that was handled very well.

I posted a link to an NBC teaser commercial from a couple weeks ago..it's regarding "what everyone did over summer". There's not much aside from one major development..so I think it's worth a watch before Season 4 starts.

If I didn't think it would be in somewhat bad taste (out of context at least) I'd change my signature to "Scranton? I think I dated a black girl." Classic.

Can't wait! The best show that isn't on HBO, although it is just about as good as Entourage and Flight of The Conchords. I still have to buy season 3 on dvd, I got the first 2. I expect this season to be no different from the first two, it will be funny.

Just finished watching season 3. Wow, that show gets better by the episode. Just sucked there was too much about relationships in that season.

 

So when does Season 4 start?

[Gone]

Season 4 starts 9-27

 

I'm picking up season 3 and maybe taking a few days to watch it before season 4 starts. Love this show. However, I am concerned that Pam and Jim being together may turn out to be a bad thing for the show all together. I can just see that being even more of a topic than it has in the past.

I actually like that aspect of the show. That's what the show is about, IMO, with all the crazy characters and much of the humor going on around them.

[pitchleague]

well, I finally watched the pilot and second episode on TBS last night (first time I've ever watched The Office). It was enjoyable. Not laugh out loud funny but still funny. I'll keep watching in hopes that it gets better. So many others say it does, so I'll take your word for it.

I think the first season was pretty much like the original BBC Office, but americanized(the plots were similar). I liked the BBC version better because some of the stuff didn't translate well(Yes English isn't exactly English). The Office is better now than it was then. The US version has run longer than the BBC version, but I think that has more to do with the creators, at least one of them, having a short attention span.

[Chio151]

The American version clearly has more depth into their characters - even the side ones. I think everything beyond mid season one really seperated itself.

 

I know more than a few people that 'love' the BBC version because they discovered it before their roommate/friend/brother. It's fine and dandy, but the American version goes much farther.

 

That said, Gareth rocks.

I love this show. I do think though it takes a few episodes to get hooked on it. My wife watched a couple shows and really didn't like it. She watched a few more though and now loves. Characters take a little getting used to.

Well said, Im a big fan of both and own both.

My only fear is the Jim/Pam romance. I am so, so, so sick of the "wedding event of the year" type thing that seems to crop up in most sitcoms, sooner or later. I hope it doesn't come to that.

[Menotti80]

And that's why Seinfeld is the greatest sitcom ever!

[molitor fan]

My wife and i are going to the Scranton Office convention October 25th-28th. Yes, i am a geek.

[logan82]

I have come to bleieve "geek" is a relative term. Also, what is considered to be geeky now will be cool soon.

[Mike Felder]

I've been watching the first season episodes on TBS (first time ever watching it) and I've got to say, I love it. The episode tonight where Dwight takes away the health care and people start making up random diseases to be covered cracked me up. "Hot dog fingers?!" I think I'm going to have to rent seasons 2 and 3 and DVR the new ones so I can get caught up.

Dido.? I like that part of the show, but I will lose respect for the show in a sense if it becomes too much about the Jim/Pam thing.?


On another note, the Summer Vaction promos were great.? I like Ryan's the best.

[don1481]

We're having an Office party tomorrow at my apartment. We're all dressing up as characters. Brooke says I look like Ryan, so I'll be sporting a suit. And the Ryan Stubble as well.

[iluvlamp]

So far, so good. I have had many laughs on a dismal Brewer day thus far.

[ccbrew]

It's double jeopardy. We're fine.
