First, I would like to apologize to our avid blog readers, both of you. Due to an increasing rehearsal and work schedule, I have not had much time to watch The Office, let alone blog about it. That aside I would like to discuss a couple of the things I noticed in this week's episode.
First off: I miss the non-situational, funny cold open. These past couple weeks have let me down. Remember how funny the DVD box bouncing around was. Get back to that. You don't need to throw bits of the plot line into them. However, if you stopped after Karen spoke, that would've created great tension through the opening that maybe she was speaking of Jim.
Aside from the cold open, this episode was fantastic. I found myself asking the question I'm sure many of you have. Did The Office lose a step in the fourth season? This episode proves that The Office can still bring it for a full thirty minutes. Another supporting actor got some attention in the episode, Stanley, however this didn't distract from the leads bringing some serious comedy.
Michael + Jim + Dwight = hilarious, always. John gets to show a full spectrum of emotions in this episode. When Karen found Jim in the car I literally dropped the S-bomb at least eight times consecutively. I laughed my butt off while I curled into a ball.
Karen is clearly the jealous ex-girlfriend who still has feelings for Jim. I still think that Jim has some feeling for Karen. We need to remember that Karen was an appropriate and almost equal girlfriend for Jim. Pam is just perfect, that doesn't mean that Karen isn't a very close #2. Don't be surprised if you see Karen a couple more times this season.
So, those are my thoughts. Looks like I'll be remaining pretty busy until next year. However, I will still give as much as I can. Anyone who lives in or around Evansville, IN and wants to come see my show and chat a little office feel free to e-mail to our account ustheofficeca@gmail.com . Also, anyone please e-mail us. We're chomping at the bit to talk to people and post their e-mail on the blog.
