Going to take a break from my regularly Scheduled Scribbles About Music Throwback to bring you this! I'm re-watching the Office and it might be even better than the first time I watched it, to be honest!
I have The Office on DVD... and I have a DVD player... so I don't really know why I decided to watch it on Netflix... but I did and I'm loving it. If you liked The Office watching it the first time around... you might like it even better watching it a second time. Its still exciting to me to see Jim and Pam becoming a couple and Dwight and Angela and I'm almost at the point where Michael and Jan get together... it just didn't get any less exciting even though I already know what happens.
I also didn't really appreciate the first season... I had only watched it once, I had maybe watched Diversity Day a second time... but for the most part I was just like "meh, not that interesting, I'll skip and watch season 2",,, but Season 1 of The Office is actually pretty fantastic. It sets up a lot of what happens in the next few seasons, even just in the first episode. They already establish that the company can't keep both the Scranton and Stamford branches open and its not looking too good for Dunder Mifflin Scranton... it sets up a lot.
The last episode that I watched was The Fight in Season 2... so I think I'll do a little Top 5 so far, in no particular order.
1) The Dundies 2) Sexual Harassment 3) Diversity Day 4) Hot Girl 5) Office Olympics. We all know the best episodes haven't even happened for me yet (The Injury) but these are some really really good ones.
I love the way that Jim and Pam are shown before they get together too. You think that they're a couple in the first episode or that they're going to get together... but then you meet Pam's fiancé Roy. And you see that The Office is really what was sort of getting them together. And they want to get together on the weekends and stuff but they can't. Its just very well done, and I can see why so many people love the show and really wanted them to get together... I know I did! Lol.
And looking back on it... all the other relationships were done well too. I remember when Andy and Erin were getting together and they were like "ohhh no. It's just another Jim and Pam" and then it wasn't! And I'm sure they brought Holly on knowing that Steve Carell might leave before the show ended and that was a nice way to get him out of the show. Its just little things like that that I'm sure the writers were mindful of.
Ohhh and Jan and Michael... I thought that was done really well to. Just very funny! I love that Jan was the crazy one...
And all of Michael's bad jokes... just so funny. And how nervous he was that people would stop liking him. Just a great show with really funny jokes!
Alright... that is everything! I hope you guys liked this if you're fans of The Office, or if you're thinking of rewatching it. I haven't seen every episode still, believe it or not! There are a few episodes I still need to watch in the last few seasons (after it had kinda jumped the shark to be honest.) But I don't think it'll be bad. Its still just a funny show and I like watching it over and over again.
I'm gonna go watch it now... lol.
Bye!
