Women are like wolves. If you want a wolf, you have to trap it. You have to snare it... and then you have to tame it.

Keep it happy, care for it, feed it... lovingly, like an animal deserves to be loved.

And my animal deserves a lot of loving.

Their hour episodes are often awful. Halfway thru so far, and this is no exception. What a waste given the time slot.

The opening scene was one of the few decent parts, but was nowhere near the best. Same with Dwight and the organ removal, exception to the overall episode.

Bears, beets, battlestar gallactica.

I cooked my foot.

This isn't snl people, the standards are pretty high, especially for declarations of alltime greatness.


Quite a bit of awkward silence or variations of highlighting the pathetic aspects of Michael, just in sad ways more than funny.

Wow I thought tonight was pretty great. Even Pam said something funny " If Michaels thing was an ipod, it would be a shuffle". I thought it more than fulfilled its time slot. That whole Jack Black Pirated movie was great too.

Agreed 100%. I was very critical of most of season four because the writers seemed to be "dumbing it down" a little too much IMO. This season had been much better thus far, but this may have been a new low. Too slapsticky. It's like they were trying to attract new viewers. The thing that has made The Office so good is it's genuine feel, awkward situations and subtle humor, not Michael being a caracature of himself, and that's what they did for much of last season (driving a car into a lake because the gps told him too) and a lot of tonight. Very disappointed. Hopefully it's just a one time thing and not a downward trend to what has been a solid season thus far.

Probably the low point of the whole series so far to me.

Pam's often funny. Was there another good line in the roast?

Either way, that opening doesn't come even close to these:

Couldn't find the full 'cooked foot' intro but it should be pretty memorable:​
