    It might seem like grilling an A+ student for B- work, but the fact remains that this is among the few times the show has spun its tires.

    The Office gets off to a good start with an episode about office gossip... And what about the latest Jim-Pam rumor? You’ll have to watch to see how that plays out. It’s a terrific payoff.

    It's a typically funny Office episode that makes good use of most of the cast.

    it's a solid episode of The Office, which picks up with the Pam's pregnancy storyline the last season ended on, though I won't get into the details of how.

    This show has changed rapidly in tone then previous seasons but it still remains funnier than most shows on television. Most people's expectations for the show are simply too high to let them recognize the greatness this show still can achieve… Expand

    Solid - let's hope the whole season stays on this track.

    Anthony- I don't think it's about intelligence, more about having the experience to be able to relate to the things going on. If you've never been in the situations that the characters on Seinfeld were in, you're not going to find it funny. I don't think The Office is like Seinfeld in that sense. It's more low-brow, straightfoward comedy. When compared to the countless crappy comedies on TV (Family Guy, Parks and Rec.), the show is phenomenal. If you compare it to it's own shining moments, you'll just be disappointed.… Expand

    They should probably cancel the show already. The characters are cartoonish and the humor ( or lack thereof) is not the same as in seasons 2-3. The main characters are now boring caricatures of themselves.… Expand
