I agree that the Office is at its best when subtle and real, especially when it produces awkward and cringe-worthy situations that everyone has experienced or hopes not to. This episode had it all. One of my favorites. Great recap, Brian.

But they humor in each show is very different from the other, and I don't love when The Office gets too 30 Rock-ish, which is to say silly and in-your-face broad. The Office is best at its most subtle and painfully real. I do, however, like when 30 Rock gets Office-ish. Mainly I think 30 Rock is a funnier show, but The Office is a better show overall.

Clarify something for me: What did you mean by this line: "Again, in great 30 Rock-esque fashion the writers come up with a ridiculously funny premise"? Don't you mean to say "in great Office-esque fashion..." I think you did, mon. Otherwise, top-shelf write up. Daoust is the name of me on the Northern Attack forums. Great write up, Brian.

And I agree Sean, awesome return episode. Too bad they had to burn off "Dinner Party" first. That one would have been better off sandwiched into a long stretch of episodes.

Killed me. I agree, best episode of the season.

Sharp writing, on campus action, cringing so hard you turn into an accordion...and the Jim/Pam thing was cute too. ;) There are so many quotable lines from this one. Guaranteed we'll be throwing around lines from this one a couple of seasons into the future. Now THAT’S what I’m talking about.
