Very good episode and I don't like The Office nearly as much as 99% of OOT.

Kevin is greatness. Is Pam's review posted on Tripadvisor? [/ QUOTE ] Yes, and Angela has one about the owner being a psycho. Only other show related one is by Garreth Keenan. If you read it in the Garreth voice it's pretty funny, but I'm guessing that one is a normal fan just being clever. |

I'm not a huge Kevin fan. He's certainly not one of the better secondary characters on the show IMO. I agree with CrazyEyez that's he's too melodramatic. Last week's reading of "hot circle of garbage" is a good example. But other times, I think he's solid.
Anyways about the episode, I enjoyed it. It had a lot of great character scenes and some good laughs, but I'm shocked at how many people would call it one of the best of all-time. |

[ QUOTE ] women be shoppin [/ QUOTE ] Was trying to think of the Kevin line that made me lol last night. This was it. [/ QUOTE ] Not only the line but he goes for the fist pound with Stanley and just gets the Stanley look. That made it that much better. So many good Kelly moments last night, especially in Darryl's office when she got pissed and knocked his papers off and did the W(hatever)/L(oser)/whatever else on her way out. I loved the whole creepy farm feel during the bed and breakfast scenes too. When they roll up with Dwight in the rocking chair, perfect. A line that cracked me up (and I wouldn't be surprised if I was the only one) was when Jim asked Dwight if Mose had nightmares often and Dwight ominously responds "Ever since the storm." One thing that confused me was Michael's whole situation. In the beginning I was 100% under the impression that his financial difficulties were due to crazy Jan, not having a job and living off of him, getting the Porsche, etc. This started getting confusing later when Oscar is helping Michael and talks about the extranneous expenses like the bass fishing stuff. Then when Jan is put in a positive light at the end.. I was just completely confused. So Michael's whole problem stemmed from his OWN overspending and he hid it from Jan rather it being Jan's fault? |

Many of the jokes/lines today make little sense if you aren't familiar with the characters and their backstories. |

It certainly wasn't the funniest episode, but it made up for it with some good drama. I'm surprised to see so many people loving the whomever scene. I laughed, but it was nothing special.

wezvidz,
What I made out of it was that Michael is just kind of a doofus with his money, but it didn't break him pre-Jan. He was a single bachelor making manager money (though there was that episode last season about how he had never gotten a raise because he never asked for one, but I think he got a fair raise after that). So he could afford to buy really dumb stuff. But with an unemployed Jan moving in with him, she pushed the finances way over the edge and he never adjusted and never told her to cool it. |

This show is all about the characters and if you don't know them well, the stuff isn't as funny. BTW, I agree with many in this thread, one of the best episodes ever. |

Jim: "It sounded like crying or ... moaning."
Dwight: "I'll have to look into that in the morning. Thank you for letting the staff know." HAHAHAHA |
