That 4 minutes of the show was devoted to being a commercial for Second Life was beyond pathetic. They've always had pretty blatant product placement, but this is getting ridiculous.

Yeah, I was disappointed by that. I'm assuming that Second Life paid more than a few bucks to get the product placement in there -- the only way this might not be the case is if the "Second Life" was a plot device in order to show us that Jim is not happy with his life (as others have mentioned in this thread).

I thought this was the best episode of the season and had a lot of funny small parts. Football cream followed by Andy's GRRRR face lol. Mama bear. Second life. Michael's interaction with Ryan was great.

"Well actually I can't cook, and I am starting a restaurant. Mike's cereal shack."

Amazing.

"I find the mystery genre disgusting. I hate being titillated."

LOL good ep.

The thing is that they were funny, like the one with the shredder from way back. I got no problem with any of this as long as it's hilarious. Pimp's gotta eat and [censored].

This was such an amazing episode.

Jim's character is really so well done. This was the side of Michael that I really like too. It definitely makes up for his ineptitude from the episode earlier this season where he drove the car into the lake.

The Dwight-Andy-Angela love triangle with Oh-D was awesome as well.

Have to re-watch, but I really, really enjoyed it, and am glad to be back to the shorter episodes.

Angela is the best female character on the show. I would also like to neck with her.

I had no idea that second life was a real computer game. I thought it was making fun of the sims.

it's not a game, there are not points, there are no winners or losers.

green kool aid,

You're right this was an outstanding episode. I wish it was longer, I bet some folks feel bad about hating on the hour long episodes after being left left hungry after these half hour eps.
