The Office: The best ‘Baby Shower’ I ever saw (not that I’m ready to talk about it)

I really liked “Baby Shower,” last night’s episode of The Office.
I didn’t think I was going to like it. I didn’t feel much like watching it, in fact, mainly because I’m a little under the weather.

But it got me anyway. From Dwight birthing a buttery watermelon to Amy Ryan pulling out the Oscar-caliber chops for her final scene with Michael, I was impressed with the way this episode pulled me in. You had me at “Omaha Beach,” Creed.
I’ve got a lot to say about it, but like I said, I’m not feeling up to snuff. So I’m going to take my time to collect my thoughts, transcribe some of the funnier bits and generally assemble a blog post that does it justice.
Until then, feel free to watch it again on our dime. The full episode, including the series’ second afterbirth reference, appears after the jump.
