Did I stutter was my least favorite, I agree. But dinner party was one of the best episodes from season 4. The setting wasn't at the familiar environment of "the office" and that might have thrown people off, but Jan and Michaels dysfunctional, and hostile relationship was shown to the fullest extent, and it was hilarious. The best episode of all, was "The Injury" when Michael burns his foot on his "George Foreman" grill, and Dwight is loopy all day because he got a concussion trying to "save" Michael. Overall, its just an excellent show.

I think my favorite episode is the one where there's a bat in the office. Also, Creed is like the best character ever!

4th Season?

American TV really knows how to run a series into the ground.

Beats Japanese Television, where shows are purposely cancled at the height of their popularity! They cancled my favorite show for this very reason:

Look at Fawlty Towers

2 series of 6 episodes and that was it.

And as a result it's 12 episodes of the finest crafted quality comedy shows of all time without a single weak episode.

The reverse happened with Steptoe And Son. The B & W sries were comedy gold and stonewall classics but when it was eked out for Colour (with a few really good exceptions) it lost it's way. The Steptoerai is a perfect example. Awful awful episode that involved Kung Fu. That's not what steptoe was about at all.

Aren't you a Dr. Who fan?

Anyways, I think it's about time they end the show. Getting very old and I don't like what most of the characters have become. Jim and Pam both annoy me now, they both act high headed as if they're smarter than everyone else, especially Jim. Ryan is flat out annoying and these dumb relationship subplots need to stop. Michael is the only character I've consistently liked throughout the series, though Dwight still has his moments. I officially hate Kevin now, too.

Is anyone else with me? Second half of season 4 and forward the show hasn't been the same. I'm getting really tired of these dumbass writers shoving new relationships down our throats constantly. Also, what happened to the "office" part of The Office? I can't remember the last time an episode actually took place in the office, rather than some outside of the office setting.

That's funny, considering your name is Tuna.

Pre-Season 5 Jim = Awesome

Post-Season 5 = high head douchebag, in a subtle way

Besides, it was more for the sake of a random reference to The Office in general rather than the specific character of Jim.
