The Office Finale
asdsfkdlg;jdjgvkfdl;gvdndnkfdflnsdja;l OMGOMGOMG!!!
I have no words. I honestly am just...wow. This was probably my favorite episode of the season and the best of the hourlongs but yet it was a hell of a roller coaster on my emotions. I was just high throughout most of the 2/3, laughing hysterically, grinning madly, bouncing around and totally in love with my show the way it was meant to be. And then it just totally switched gears into sadness in that very Office way that kills me. And now I'm kind of stunned and feel...weird. And emotionally tired. But amazed.
First off, a whole episode based on Michael hating Toby and celebrating his exit was pretty much made for me. It was hilarious. But then they add in the layer of a new HR representative who Michael actually likes. And I was worried she was just being nice to him in order to get him not to hate her and do well at the office. But now she might actually like him and that makes me so happy :) I adore Michael and I really want him to be happy. And this whole episode had so much Michael love in it from him dancing, to trying to take it slow, to singing, to being excited about a kid...it basically turned me into adorable mush. I loved Jim helping him as well, that always makes me like him more. I loved how he was forced to put aside his hate for a greater purpose, love. And then he was forced to put away his love for a chance at a kid. And watching Halloween yesterday reminded me of how great Michael was with kids and what a wonderful dad he'd be with another good influence.
And then there's Jan. I don't know what to think. She seems more sane but I think it's horrible that she be with Michael but not really want to have a kid with him, but would have one with some nameless person. It really burst my bubble of love for this episode. At the same time, I don't think it's totally out of left field and it does work with the story. It breaks my heart for Michael and makes me depressed for what could have been with them. We'll see what happens next year.
Dwight was amazing with the hazing storyline. It was so him. And Mose! It was great to see him as well as Gene and Lee. And my heart broke even more when Andy proposed (which you know, really was so him) and his look :( God, it hurt. But them having sex was an awesome end! Nice to see Jim and Pam not have the spotlight for once and it was a good full circle from Fun Run and reminded me of The Negotiation. It was a very abrupt end though.
Jim and Pam...they're still super cute. I loved the opening with Pam getting into art school. SO AWESOME. I'm so proud of her. I also loved Jim fighting for the company even though it seems it's more because he wants to be where Pam is and he still hasn't faced what he really wants to do. I am glad the proposal didn't go through and I like Pam being worried because of Roy. What I don't like was the totally random mentions of Toby. Cuteness I get but I hope to god they don't just put them together. I just did not like how they interupted the singing, it was way too cut off and felt off. Poor Jim though, bad timing there. It will be interesting to see what happens when Pam comes back to Dunder-Mifflin.
I LOVED Phyllis's plot with Angela which was a wonderful full circle from back in the beginning of S4. I loved seeing her do well, take down Angela and be in love with Bob Vance. The Kevin storyline with Holly was hilarious and cracked me up so much. Sadly, it's not so hard to believe. Oh, Kevin. I loved seeing all the gang together at the party from Meredith's rabies mention to Darryl playing music (like at the Office con!) to the Jim and Pam sweetness with all the fireworks.
Ryan! OMG such a great twist. I should have expected it but it was shocking. I particularly love how it was youtube. It broke my heart how sad Michael was about him :( I wish the season had more time to develop the storyline but what can you do. Kelly's reaction was hilarious, the prison thing was perfect. I also loved Oscar's hilarious explanation with the fraud and beard.
Basically I love this episode. I love this show. I don't know how I will do without it or how I ever doubted it. It will always be my favorite show of all *heats it to infinity*
I will wait anxiously and excitedly for your return, my beautiful, brilliant show.
no subject
I am so glad it wasn't! Ick. And it kind of confirms they didn't sleep together unless it before their no cheating agreement (or she lied but I tend to believe her).
Oh yeah, I'm pretty sure. But the way the scene came off with Pam's intercuts in the singing scene made it seem like they were going there to build up suspense with Jim and Pam and it didn't feel right to me. Like it was out of place.
