The Office 11/6 "Customer Survey" *spoilers*

They've really been on a roll this season. I think Jim realizes that what's-his-face is absolutely right, and I'm really interested to see where they take that.

I guess I'm in the minority but I'm tired of the whole long distance Jim/Pam thing.

There were several minutes during the middle of the show last night where the transmission was poor (stuttering picture/garbled audio/some "patterns" on the screen). Did anyone else with Directv (in NC) experience this?

I can't see that. I think Pam will end up moving back to Scranton for some reason (and soon I hope.)

Great episode....

Yeah I think Pam is too much of a homebody and will bail and move back to live with Jim and just live with the idea that she won't be an artist.

The fake sales call was HI-Larious! "Mr. Buttlicker....."

omg, we were laughing the whole episode. When Andy decided to have the wedding at Schrute farms, and their meeting with Dwight. And when Jim was asking Pam about shoes, and Dwight was answering. We were cracking up

Seriously: how can you not think there was anything funny here? The entire concept of the super-mini bluetooth was comedy genius, and a great way to keep Pam integrated into the story even when she's in New York. Loved Pam singing under her breath, and especially loved "That's what she said! That's what she said!"

You are definitely not in the minority with regards to the long distance dating thing. I want more Pam. Less everyone else.

I got more laughs at this weeks episode of Sons of Anarchy than the Office.

Bluetooth joke did nothing for me.
Schute Farm jokes nothing.
Tent storyline nothing.

I did have a chuckle when Dwight almost kicked the one lady in the face. That was funny.

Customer Review storyling nothing.
Office is really hit/miss with me. It tends to be go like this
Bad episode/ok episode/great episode, repeat.

I think there has been a shift in the dynamics of this show. It used to be a silly comedy with very little hints of realism and drama mixed in. It has evolved into a show that is mostly drama/ realism with just a hint of silly comedy mixed in.

So is the mini Blue Tooth real or just something made up for this episode?

I REALLY enjoyed this episode! The Mini Blue-Tooth thing throughout was very funny. And Pam jumping up and down shouting "That's what she said! That's what she said! That's what she said!" made me spew my Dew (Mountain Dew which I happened to be drinking at the time, though if someone chimes in with "That's what he said", I'll understand ).

Michael being forced to tell his mom that he was getting married, and her questioning it and Michael saying something like "That's what you always say" was such a Michael getting himself into something moment - uncomfortable and funny at the same time. When Dwigt walked in and congratulated him, my first thought was "Wow - that was quick from last week", then my next thought a nanosecond later was "he's not engaged".

"What shade of yellow shirt is he wearing today?" - ha! I never even noticed that before, but she's right.

This is still one of my favorite shows. Just seems to click with me.

If the bluetooth thing happened in real life, I'd stay as far away from those two as possible. Their behavior struck me as needy, creepy, and codependent.

I loved how proud Pam was of herself when timing the punchline perfectly, "That's what she said! That's what she said!"

I like Darrel..."I was there...that man ain't engaged....I'd take some of my wages to help pay for his therapy".

IIRC, it wasn't "what shade of yellow" but "what shade of mustard -- yellow or dijon?" which is even funnier. And Jim responded, "more of a spicy brown." ]

I was sort of "meh" on the episode. I didn't think it was that funny but I was still entertained. Like most people, I'm ready for Pam to come back to Scranton. I'm tired of seeing her in NYC.

Did anyone notice the photos Dwight showed Andy and Angela? The second photo appeared to be a Wedding Party in a cemetery in front of an open grave. I got several good laughs out of this episode.

I loved when Jim kept talking to Pam and Dwight thought he was talking to him. Dwight would say something, and Jim would reply to Pam. Dwight said something, Jim replied "I love you too" to Pam and Dwight finally yelled "What do you think I am saying to you?"

That and the "That's what she said" as everyone turned around to look at Pam were great.

The fake sales call that totally sucked Michael & Dwight in, were great.

But for Jim not to encourage her to try would not be like him. He's been pushing her towards what she really wants since the show began. It'd be incredibly selfish of him to let her fall back into reception when she could do more. He should move to be with her, even if that meant they'd be off the show.

I remember an episode way back where Dwight mentioned that the Schrute's have their weddings in their own graves. The quote went something like, "It makes for depressing weddings, but the funerals are fun."

So nothing will become of Kelly for faking the reports? That storyline was just brushed aside, which sucks because it had so much build-up.

It is so within Kelly's character to give Jim and Dwight poor reviews since they didn't go to her party...

Michael understood her motives. "Do you know how long it takes to eat 10 lbs of guacamoli? (sp?)"
