I am – Hercules!! Herc loved last week’s vampire-centric “Office,” directed by Joss Whedon. So that’s weird. When did Herc start liking Whedon’s work? But what will Herc make of this week’s “Office,” directed by J.J. Abrams? Wellsir, Herc thinks J.J. Abrams a TV god. Abrmas wrote and produced the “Felicity” pilot. He wrote and directed the “Alias” pilot. He co-wrote and directed the “Lost” pilot. And, if the fates align, Abrams will be permitted to shepherd the greatest “Star Trek” story ever told. Something akin, perhaps, to Chris Claremont’s spectacular “Star Trek: Debt of Honor”! Here’s how TV Guide describes tonight’s episode, “Cocktails”:

Michael and Jan attend a party at a Dunder Mifflin bigwig's home, where they finally go public with their heretofore hushed romance. While at the party, Jim meets Karen's ex. And the rest of the office dwellers are also in a partying mood, as they head out for a boozy happy hour.

The promos, with Michael’s straightjacket, look hilarious. Would Herc be happier if Abrams spent the week writing a “Lost” episode instead of directing an “Office” episode? Yes, Herc would! “The Office” is plenty funny without Abrams’ help. But the two “Lost” episodes Abrams wrote with Damon Lindelof defined the greatness of “Lost.” Will Herc skip tonight’s “The Office” in protest? No, Herc will not skip tonight’s “The Office” in protest! And you’d best not either! 8:30 p.m. Thursday. NBC.
