November 3, 200619 yr Famous Indians: Apu from the Simpsons. Me and my roommate were literally yelling at Jim to answer his phone when Pam texted him. We were like 2 girls watching Laguna Beach. haha "What are you doing?" "What are YOU doing?" "Rejecting your kiss." "Can I get a ride home." "Only if you sit in back." And for the record, the lady Jim works with now is pretty hot, but I'd still take Pam. She's got that cute personality.
November 3, 200619 yr Next week is supposed to be the. [spoilers ahead] Highlight text: the merge. The scranton branch is being shut down, and will merge with the Stamford branch. Also Harold Ramis is supposed to direct a 1-hour episode set to air in december (though that's usually re-run season) Edited November 3, 200619 yr by Gene Honda Civic
November 3, 200619 yr wow... i figured that it would happen eventually. but so soon. One of my concerns throughout the show was being able to generate enough plot out of the characters that all work in the office. I mean, there is only so much that can happen with the group there.... Its a credit to the writers that they are able to keep this so damn great. Honestly, its brilliant. Its approaching the seinfeld/curb your enthusiasm level of excellence
November 5, 200619 yr I almost died when Ed Helms and Jim started singing the Indigo Girls. That cracked me up.
November 5, 200619 yr I'm guessing the actress/writer who plays Kelly wrote that episode. She's written almost all of my favorite ones so far.

November 6, 200619 yr QUOTE(Soxy @ Nov 6, 2006 -> 10:00 AM) I think it was "Closer to Fine." It was. I get that confused with "Closer to Free" by the BoDeans a lot though.
November 6, 200619 yr Just a quick question about television writing I've had for a little. How does a show with ongoing storylines use multiple writers? For instance, the person who plays Kelly wrote this episode, but it has to further storylines. I have had this question about the Sopranos mainly. Does the creator/producers have a template for the season, then go to the person writing a specific episode and say they have to include certain plot points in order to move the story along?

November 6, 200619 yr BTW the Diwali song, sung to Adam Sandlers ''Hanukkah Song'' Diwali A festival of lights Let me tell you something Tonight has been One cra-a-a-zy night So put on your saris It's time to celebrate Diwali Everybody looks so jolly But it's not Christmas, it's Diwali The goddess of destruction Kali Stopped by to celebrate Diwali Don't invite any zombies to a celebration of Diwali Along came Polly To have some fun at Diwali If you're Indian and you love to party Have a happy, happy, happy, happy Diwali Happy Diwali!
November 6, 200619 yr QUOTE(Soxy @ Nov 6, 2006 -> 09:38 AM) She did write it, though. Well I don't know what to say.
November 7, 200619 yr QUOTE(Kid Gleason @ Nov 6, 2006 -> 07:23 PM) Isn't "Ryan" one of the other writers? Or have they all written episodes? the actor who plays ryan is one of the main writers on the show. The actress who plays kelly has done a few. The actor who plays toby is also a writer or something of the sorts.

November 10, 200619 yr The opening scene was pretty histerical. I know it's not the more subtle humor, but Jim's pranks on Dwight usually have me laughing my ass off.
