milk it.
really? The UK boss came off simply as an asshole. He had no sense of charm; that sense of sympathy was just because the character was so pathetic. I think people are much more sympathetic to Carell
nono, its how drowned in naiveness the british boss was. i dont think you can say michael scott has charm either. count the number of times he’d mismanage something and they’d leave the camera at his face, making him look like he knows what hes doing in that sad sad way. the camera doesnt really stay on carrells face, you usually just see the underlings being disgruntled. but in the british version you can pick up on this vibe of “omfg this guy really doesnt know what hes doing”, as opposed to “LOLS AT CARRELL BEING A CLOWN”. its kind of like that expression jim gives to the camera whenever dwight does anything outrageous. everyone was giving that face to the UK boss.
I have to post up after this ep, I think I can safely say this is my favorite episode of the office ever.
Michael: If you so much as harm a hair on Stanley’s head, we will burn Utica to the ground.
Michael: Mo Money Mo Problems Stanley, you of all people should know that.
So many quotes and not enough time…
I think we need to stop comparing the UK version of The Office to the US one.
Just watched this week’s ep- I can understand why they keep making Karen out to be this jealous bitch, but I really wish the writers would make Karen really awesome. I like the idea of Jim and Pam being together, but I would like it even more if Karen was a threat to Pam.
i agre with ytwojay, i am a huge fan of both the british and american office. i think they both have their unique qualities, but NO ONE gets me feeling more embarassed for him than rick gervais in the uk office.
winner line of tonight - “i think i cut it on the can.”
Nope, I like Karen being a bitch, because it makes Pam more likeable.
Best quote of the night?
“I have sex with men, but other than that, the Finer Things club is the gayest thing about me.”
too many quotes won the episode. A social club in The Office, as well? since when did they have this club?
- as for that stunt: of course they’d get caught. The cameraman follows them around wherever they go. How did they think that they would have been able to pull it off successfully and get away with it?
lol - i forgot about that one…
yesterday’s episode was one of my favorite episodes ever! HAHA it was so hilarious. damn i wish there will be more karen time.
One of my favorite episodes, especially cause I thought I wouldn’t see my beloved Rashida Jones on the Office again
Stanley smiled? wtf…
Karen’s fine ass is back…yeah
Dunder mifflin has rivals in its own company…lol
Andy is now mid tier
good ep.
Maybe Utica will be the Spin off for the Office II? That wouldn’t be too bad now that I think about it. Karen is awesome. :lovin:
“We have warehouse uniforms, silly string, materials to make stink bombs”
“Or real bombs, that would be pretty awesome”
“We’ve been driving in the car with all this??”
And LOL @ all of them wearing moustaches.
“The eyes…are the groin of the head.”
All I have to say about this episode is…poor Jim. He got owned harder in this episode than he did when he got shut down by Pam at the end of season 2. Then again, he did bring most of it upon himself.
Michael–"Take her to a hotel, Jim. Make love to her."
Jim–"No. I’m not doing that."
Michael–"Say you want to get back together."
Jim–"NO! I’m not doing that."
Michael–“It doesn’t have to mean anything, just…do it for Stanley. Come on, Jim, just climb on top of her and do it for Stanley!”
i actually just started watching this show a few nights ago, can’t believe the awesomeness of it.
Welcome to the bandwagon
Yes this episode was awesome.
it’s awesome when the camera man plays a role. loved this episode.
“What is that, that sound, the air conditioning leaking? Dwight are you peeing?”
“HEY YOUR MAKING ME SPRAY!”
“I think I cut my penis on the lid!”
Oh man. I was in tears.
I actually think Carrell is so much more likeable than Gervais. Gervais was a total tool… Carrell is actually caring. Note the episode where he is the only one to attend Pam’s art exhibition.
This episode was sooo good. KAREN!!! She didn’t seem like a bitch at all imo… when three guys, one including your ex boyfriend comes into your office and breaks an important piece of equipment, you have every right to be pissed.
MOUSTACHES.
I need a pic of when they’re all in the car.
Great episode 2nd only to the ‘Technology’ episode so far this season! Karen is hot…more air time please. Angela was mia, but that allowed Dwight to not be so damn depress and be goofy again. The mustaches were classic. XD
