Michael/Jan thoughts [Jan. 24th, 2007|01:13 pm]

So it's official: I completely and utterly ship Michael/Jan together on The Office. After seeing Back From Vacation, I'm all in. Since last Thursday I've been crazy about them and it hasn't died down much. I enjoy Jim and Pam but they don't interest me like Michael and Jan do.

Thoughts on Back From Vacation (Spoilers) )

From the start, Jan ie Melora Hardin reminded me of someone I had seen before but I couldn't place her. I checked the IMDB but she hadn't been in anything I had seen. Then I realised it was her voice that was reminding me of something. Finally I figured it out: she reminds me of Claire Allen aka Paula Marsha from Cupid. And wow, does Trevor/Claire parallel Michael/Jan. Michael and Trevor both have that childish innocence to them, the enthusiasm and boundless confidence not to mention suffer (slightly) from delusions. Not to mention they both believe so strongly in romance (you complete me!!) and sex. Jan and Claire are so alike in their professional attitudes and hardened exterior and belief more in compatibility. And they both try to keep their relationship purely professional but thank god, in this show Michael and Jan actually get to kiss. Hopefully this will make me slightly less bitter about never getting to see what happened with Trevor and Claire.

Now I'm just nervous where the show is going to go with their relationship. I've been dying the last two episodes to see them with sadly (almost) nothing and I can't believe I have to wait another week to see a new episode. I am obsessing on The Office at the moment. It's just SO GOOD and the actors are all a class act. Which speaking of, I'm going to get to meet almost all of them March 2nd! Hopefully I'll be able to go to the Paley Festival where everyone besides Steve Carell is going to be there including Melora Hardin *squee* I really, really can't wait.

I'm kind of dying to vid Michael and Jan. They have the best facial expressions. I have been listening to a bunch of ridiculously romantic songs that express my love for them but it's not really their relationship. And I really should vid existing vid projects. But I need to express my obsessive love for them so I found a song I think will work. I went out to buy the DVDs on Saturday so I've got those all set up. And they also have some great deleted scenes and commentaries with some great mentions including one of my favorite quotes right here:

"Any single-cell organism has to have a spine. And that's me. But the spine is always controlled by a brain and that is Jan. But the brain needs a heart and that is me again. So ironic. You know what? The heart is smarter than the brain. But...the brain is so effin' hot." -Michael Scott
