Scott's Tots is higher than Futurama dog episode on my unwatchable list. Once was enough.
Similarly, this is why the Michael Scott Paper Company is by far the best storyline the show ever did. It's founded on a real and irreconcilable conflict (there's no way they can let Michael date the HR officer after what happened when he dated his boss, but at the same time you can understand Michael's anguish about it), it shakes up the status quo, a lot of characters get to grow (Pam's desire for more is nice here after she quit art school at the beginning of the season, but unfortunately they'll take it away again because the show hates Pam), and we finally, for the first and last time in the show, get to really see that Michael Scott is so good at selling paper you could easily imagine wanting to promote him to manage a bunch of other salesmen.
While I like the Michael Scott Paper Company series of episodes, I disagree that its a good display of Michaels competence as a salesman. Isnt the only reason they manage to get any clients at all that they offer paper at completely unsustainable prices?
We definitely see Michaels selling abilities in other episodes, but the MSPC basically just irresponsibly undercut Dunder Mifflin and then got really lucky with their bluff to Wallace.
all of the office contributing to his Threat Level Midnight movie
I hated Scott's Tots. It's one of the worst episodes of the office. It destroys Michael Scott's character.
It makes 0 sense for him to make that promise to 20 innocent kids and then completely destroy their dreams of going to college. It came out of left field. I didn't think the episode was well written or funny. Its cringe worthy, but not in a good way. That episode almost ruined The Office for me. Too mean spirited.
Dinner Party is the GOAT episode because the cringe worthy parts are hilarious and so awkward. Especially the dynamic between Michael and Jan. It was a legendary episode.
Season 6 was way past its prime anyway. Fuck Scott's Tots.
Halpert has far more of a black, awful soul than Michael ever could
Fuck Jim, he is a piece of shit for everything he did.
Is this about how he did things with Pam, or am I missing something far more sinister?

He was always shaky morally, doing things to Dwight that would get you sacked or arrested in any normal workplace.Is this about how he did things with Pam, or am I missing something far more sinister?
I thought they were dating in real life and broke up and thats maybe why she left the show kind of quickly?Personally, the way he just discards Karen after convincing her to move to Scranton was always kind of weird to me. I think the writers expected people to ignore this and other things because viewers would want Jim and Pam to get together so badly.

Beyond that the whole Athlead plotline kinda ruined Jim & Pam for me.
Tim & Dawn forever
Doesn't really excuse the shitty writing.I thought they were dating in real life and broke up and that's maybe why she left the show kind of quickly?
Well, Jim & Pam weren't the only characters ruined by the later seasons so yeah, I agree.The Pam and Jim story ended sitting in a car eating hamburgers ... listening to one of the best songs ever written.
You can't judge Jim by later non canon spinoffs.
I agree, just trying to perhaps provide some context.Doesn't really excuse the shitty writing.Well, Jim & Pam weren't the only characters ruined by the later seasons so yeah, I agree.
That's the Season 5 finale? I think I'm going to regret watching S6 but oh well.For me the good ending is Jim and Pam finding out theyre pregnant at the company picnic. I dont think theres an episode after that that you really have to see.

I haven't realized until this rewatch how big of a pussy Jim Halpert is. He was scared to death of Roy and what pushed it over the top for me was the beach episode when they are in sumo gear and he completely pusses out facing Stanley.
Naw, Jim snatched Roy's soul on the basketball court in front of his girl. Alpha AFJim is a smug little bitch with the heart of a coward. Only takes easy shots at people who don't realize he's being an asshole.

Roy was a dick but Jim sucks. Most punchable face in television.
Somehow that face also got him Emily Blunt so I hate him for that too.
I rewatched Double Date. I think I overlooked this episode because I hate season 6 and rarely ever go back to it. This is worse than what he did in Gossip. My goodness, Michael is such a piece of shit to Helene. No human being could turn on a dime like this and not be admitted for psychiatric care.
Every time I revisit this show I walk away feeling like he doesn't deserve the fairytale ending he got with Holly.
You seem to be super jealous of a fictional paper salesman.Roy was a dick but Jim sucks. Most punchable face in television.

Jim is awful and a sneaky piece of shit who sows seeds of discord and fucks with other people to amuse himself. Fuck Jim.I haven't realized until this rewatch how big of a pussy Jim Halpert is.

No. If I wanted ass I'd go clubbing on the weekend.He got Pam, the purse saleswoman played by Amy Adams, and Karen Filipeli.
You're not jealous?
No. If I wanted ass I'd go clubbing on the weekend.
You need priorities.

What about Stanley in the sumo padding. How can we excuse him running away from a 50+ yo man when they are both in padding?To be fair, Roy is massive and could prob kill anyone in that office with his bare hands.
