But it becomes too much when an e-mail containing a racy vacation photo […]

I was very sad to see this episode come to an end because there will be no more new episodes until the writer’s strike is over.
 Still, there was a lot of excellent comedy in this episode that I am not sure where to start.  Michael was yet again center stage where just about anything can […]

Tonight is one of my favorite Office episodes of all time….Booze Cruise.  Michael treats the staff to a “motivational cruise” around Lake Wallenpaupack in the dead of winter.
But the cruise is much more than motivational.  It is a half hour of non stop laughter packed with JAM moments including the infamous 27 seconds of silence.   I […]

Branch Wars is over and I don’t think it ranks among my favorite. Though I didn’t have it I felt it just wasn’t up to par with the earlier episodes.  Here are my thoughts and comments.
I loved it when Michael referenced the Dundies and asked Jim to promise to host the Dundies if he dies.  […]
