Prince Family Paper!! Thursday Brings The Last OFFICE Before The Super Bowl!!

Published at:  Jan 22, 2009 1:32:38 AM CST

SPOILER ALERT !!

I am – Hercules!!


I laughed really hard last week when Andy asked Angela if she was having sex with Dwight, and Angela replied, “That doesn’t sound like me.”


TONIGHT:
PRINCE FAMILY PAPER
Written by B.J. Novak.
Michael (Steve Carell) and Dwight (Rainn Wilson) go undercover to do a bit of industrial espionage on a paper company competitor. Meanwhile, the rest of the office holds a debate to settle the question: is Hilary Swank hot?


SUPER BOWL SUNDAY, FEB. 1:
STRESS RELIEF
Written by Paul Lieberstein.
After Dwight’s (Rainn Wilson) fire safety seminar goes awry, he must make amends to the stressed-out office. Michael (Steve Carell) tries a number of ways to get his employees to relax before discovering that he is the number one stressor at work. So that people won’t feel afraid of him, he insists on a no-holds-barred roast of himself. Also, while watching a pirated movie, Andy (Ed Helms) is convinced that Jim (John Krasinski) and Pam (Jenna Fischer) are film gurus.


FEB. 5:
LECTURE CIRCUIT PART 1
Written by Mindy Kaling.
Michael (Steve Carell) goes on a speaking tour of the other branches to explain Scranton’s relative success, accompanied by his driver, Pam (Jenna Fischer). Back at the office, Dwight (Rainn Wilson) and Jim (John Krasinski) — now the heads of the party planning committee — forget a birthday, with severe consequences. Meanwhile, Andy (Ed Helms) falls for someone he should not.


Is Oscar Andy’s new romantic conquest?

FEB. 12:
LECTURE CIRCUIT PART 2
Written by Mindy Kaling.
Michael (Steve Carell) and Pam (Jenna Fischer) continue their tour of the branches with Michael taking a lesson from their visit to Utica. Dwight (Rainn Wilson) and Jim (John Krasinski) struggle to fulfill their new party planning duties with a grumpy staff. Angela’s (Angela Kinsey) new cat causes a stir.


FEB. 19:
BLOOD DRIVE
Written by Brent Forrester.





* Dwight will set fire to the office, then lock everyone inside it.

* Jack Black, Jessica Alba and a naked Cloris Leachman all appear in the pirated movie-within-the-TV-show made for the Super Bowl episode.

* In the Super Bowl episode Pam will learn her parents are having marital problems. Comedian Rick Overton (“The Astronaut Farmer,” “Cloverfield”) will play Pam’s pop.

* Michael and Pam will visit Holly’s office in Nashua and Karen’s office in Utica.

* Britisher Idris Elba (drug kingpin Stringer Bell on “The Wire”) will play Michael’s new boss, who takes over Jan’s job at corporate.

* Writer Jennifer Celotta tells IGN that B.J. Novak will be back as Ryan for a new arc beginning in March.



Hilarious scenes deleted from Jan. 15’s “The Duel,” in which Andy learned about Dwight and Angela and Michael learned his branch was doing great:

    No more BJ Novak

    by snowpuff

    Let the show mature. Let some characters go. Bring some new ones in. Novak is right if quotes from him are accurate - the character is played out. Move on...

    The Love Triangle Thing

    by steve young

    ...is so played out. I fear this show is spinning its wheels this season. I didn't laugh once last week. It's OK that the show has broad caricatures, but the writers have apparently decided they're writing a loud screwball comedy, and are packing the script with the ol' sitcom "set up and knock 'em down" jokeyness. I say this because I love you, Office.

    Just thought you all would like to know. Although, the lip licking scene was more of a horrified giggle fit. Seriously, did they *have* to stay on that scene for so long?

    How to make 30 Rock even better: more Tina, less ensemble.

    by flim springfield

    Tina Fey is hilarious as Liz Lemon and outshines everyone else, even Alec Baldwin. Focus more on her and less on subplots.

    Good use of the entire cast this week

    by buffywrestling

    At least most got their time on screen instead of giving time away to, I don't know, security guards or something. Simplified it to two storylines, then connected them at the end. Jim played a prank, Micheal dished out some fucked up "wisdom" (single cell sharks??), Dwight was twisted, goofy AND made another LotR reference, Kelly cried and Oscar became more gay, if that's possible.

    Swank...

    by bizarrojerry

    That was a brilliant choice for the "is she hot" debate. She really is one of those actresses who sometimes looks mannish and other times looks hot.

    Did I Miss the Boat?

    by _maltheus_

    I only just started watching this show over the summer. I'd rush home every day to catch another episode and laugh my ass off. Was I just finding it funny because I was watching it consecutively on DVD or has the show really gotten pretty bad? It's just boring the shit out of me lately and I'm debating whether I should just wait for the DVD and watch it that way again. But I can't imagine that altering my perception enough to start laughing again. Did the show change, or is it just me? In any case, Swank is certainly fuckable, but she is in no way hot.

    by bob loblaw law blog

    so, perhaps I'm in the minority. But, then again, I've also wondered if Hillary Swank is hot or not.Last night reminded me of that SNL "Celebrity Jeopardy" sketch where Jimmy Fallon, as Swank, kept saying, "I'm a girl, you know."

    I Also Found It Very Funny

    by iammrmonkey!

    The Office is the only USA comedy I watch (being a Britisher) and thought that the most recent episode was just as good as before.The ending (as well as the comment "No, she's a monster!") made me laugh my socks off.
