The year with Angela turning into a horny teenage girl, Jim being busy with boss stuff instead of being funny particular at dwights expense, and the general shift from mockumentary to a sitcom dominated by romances.

Jim and Pam used to spend all of their energy mocking, pranking and undermining Michael or Dwight. Now both are so obsessed with their new careers that those pursuits are often forgotten. They replaced pranks with awkward failures by Jim and Pam not being good in their new roles.

Pranks like Quad desk used to happen in every episode in the first year or two. Now it is a rare treat.

Pam used to be a great secondary character, needling Michael for his immaturity and helping to mess with Dwight. Now her character is no longer about humor but rather romance, motherhood, and becoming a salesman. There are exceptions like the sales call with Andy, but by and large she is a shell of her old role in the comedy.

But the worst part about her promotion is Erin. Her character is painfully awkward and over the top. She has little personality, and just giggles gleefully when Dwight is being stupid. Then there's her way too large role as a love story, which should be maybe 1-2 min every few weeks, not w focus of the show for weeks on end.

Looks like they will make an effort to bring back the pranks this season. Andy is probably going to murder Erin and Gabe so that will take care of one of your other issues although Erin might be worth another Andy blowup. I could do without the musical intro.

It seems cheesy now, but man I loved that show. Some days, I think I'm a 90-year old man trapped in a younger man's body. :slappy:

Oh, seven o'clock. Change "Highway to Heaven" to "Our House" but leave the rest of the post exactly the same.
