The Office season 5 premiere
ByThe return of ‘The Office’ was everything I wanted it to be. Jim finally proposes to Pam and all is right with the world. I was afraid that when he decided not to propose during Tobey’s going-away party that they would somehow break up. But my fears were for naught as Jim got down on his knee and asked Pam to marry him at a rainy rest stop not-so-halfway between New York and Scranton.
The rest of the episode was great too but that moment was a long time coming.
Okay, so good moments aside, what is the deal with Pam’s college friend? Are they going to turn that into a ‘thing’? And what is up with her taking ceramics and what sounded like a Biology class? I thought she was just there for a 3 month quick course in graphic design. Maybe the writers just didn’t think about that. Or maybe they know very little about graphic design, which was evident by Pam’s Typography teacher’s joke that didn’t make sense about the font Zapf Chancery.
Something that irked me towards the end was that no one called out Jim for being soaking wet when they were weighing themselves on the giant scale. I was really expecting them to force him to take his clothes off. Part of me even thought they might all take their clothes off to trick the scale. Oh well, ‘The Office’ isn’t really about people being naked all the time unlike other shows (’Grey’s Anatomy’).
I thought this was a great premiere and I can only hope the entire season is this good. Though, really, when has ‘The Office’ ever let us down?
What did you think about ‘The Office’ season 5 premiere? Did you get teary eyed when Jim proposed? Did you laugh out loud at Dwight hammering fruits into the vending machine? Were you shocked at the return of Ryan, the ‘fired-guy’?
