The best scene of this movie is when they rate their business cards.
[9.5/10] Such a classic. An absolute masterpiece of cringe comedy that not only plays out the barely-restrained resentments between Michael and Jan, but adds so much weird detail to their lives together, until you get the most awkward party of all time. Everyone in the cast is on fire here, and it's reassuring that after the writer's strike, everyone put their heads together and came up with this bit of brilliance.
Am I the only one who is sorry for Kelly? I mean, I like Amy, but Jonah really hurt Kelly. :/ She is so nice and she doesn't deserve this.
Need a bottle episode where Ava somehow gets locked in a classroom with Janine's mom.
why are the listings for Great British Bake Off so jumbled?
You seriously couldn't script this shit.
Notice whenever someone refers to Oklahoma it's always "Bumfuck Oklahoma".
Let me hijack my own comment to update it after all is said and done.
This has been one fantastic show that I would wholeheartedly recommend to anyone that can "stomach" an american sitcom. Over those 6 seasons you will learn to love the characters on this show and miss them dearly when it's all over! But fear not, it has a bitter-sweet end and the show is not ripped out of existence like many other shows. 9/10, would shop there again!
Oh god, seems the show won the renewal bingo....
"NBC has renewed @AmericaFerrera's #Superstore for Season 2" :D
This show needs more NoHo Hank !!
Ninja episode. The makeups were absolutely awesome and the stabbing scene...i did not see that coming. Good job to the writters doing so much with so little
One of the best episodes, solely because it's another subtle look into Michael. He doesn't really grieves Ed Truck, but he is afraid that he will die alone, without anyone ever remembering him.
Damn that was a strong episode. Seeing someone's perspective in cyberpsychosis was super interesting. Poor Maine.
Fantastic. The mystery for the first half, visiting Vulcan, the ridiculous ceremony and battle with THAT music. Welcome, Mr. Chekov. These characters have really come to life by this point, and Spock's reaction to finding out Kirk was alive was gold.
And... it feels like somebody took my heart and dropped it into a bucket of boiling tears.
And, at the same time, somebody else is hitting my soul in the crotch with a frozen sledgehammer.
And then a third guy walks in and starts punching me in the grief bone.And I am crying. And nobody can hear me,
because I am terribly,
terribly...
terribly alone.
Trivias
+The first cut of this episode lasted 45 minutes.
+When Michael calls for a grief counseling circle in the conference room, Pam describes the movie "Million Dollar Baby," Ryan describes +"The Lion King," and Kevin describes "Weekend at Bernie's."
+In this episode, the Stamford office discusses the order for "Fairfield County Schools." However, Connecticut schools are not run by counties but rather by individual town and regional districts, meaning Fairfield County wouldn't be the ones placing a paper order.
+Dwight says his grandfather was reburied in an old oil drum. This must be the same grandfather whose tux he inherited.
+This episode was filmed after the fifth episode, "Initiation".
*Goofs*
Continuity
First, they talk about Ed Truck like he still worked at Dunder-Mifflin, Michael says he's retired when he appears in The Office: The Carpet nine months earlier. In that episode Michael goes on about how he hates Ed Truck, so it's either a continuity error or the writers expect us to remember that episode and assume Michael is overly grief-stricken over his death to get attention from his coworkers. The way it's portrayed Michael's grief really comes off as a continuity error and he seems to really care deeply for Ed Truck.
Plot holes
In the episode, Karen wants a bag of Herr's Salt and Vinegar chips, but there aren't any in the vending machine. However, when she walks by the vending machine you can see the chips in slot B1.

During the bird funeral, the cast wore coats despite the hot summer weather.
"I did not see that coming, but I should have."
Very dated from a production point of view, and the script is absolutely terrible. BUT, the story itself is exciting and it certainly did some ambitious stuff not seen on the show before.
They just rebuilt the store, how did they find a corpse in the wall?!
Who thought that a comedy show can still be this funny in its ninth season. Dwight on the slack line cracked me up big time.
Creed is honestly one of the funniest and most savage people on this show :joy:
i'm on episode 4 and still don't really know how i feel about this show:
The idea is great: a woman tries to improve her health by the conventional and not conventional methods; but the thing is she's not really trying at all, she basically gives up every day, so we don't see struggle or improvement, only complaints
Also, i'm not finding the characters relatable (maybe it's fault) and Liv is especially unlikable (she's rude, harsh and way too childish to the people who love her and that many times go out of their way to help her)
i'll watch the first season to the end, maybe i'll be pleasantly surprised but so far, it's not that impressive.

LMAO
Amy was so selfish for kissing Jonah, who has a gf, while she’s pregnant with her exhusband’s baby and also has a bf... and Jonah is trash for kissing Amy back while he’s with Kelly and using Kelly just while he waits for Amy, they are both pieces of something and deserve each other!!! And Kelly deserves so much better!! But I wonder if this means Kelly is leaving, I hope not cause she is a nice addition to the crew!!
Edit: watching this a year later, and Amy is genuinely the worst character in a sitcom ever! She’s bad vibes!!! And I say “in a sitcom” cause sitcoms are supposed to be funny and enjoyable and she isn’t funny or enjoyable, she’s miserable!
Very silly but quite fun. I really dislike the episodes that show a convenient Earth-like civilisation, but this one did it quite well.
Just watching Spock's brain...Kirk says "Is he dead " Bones comes back with "He's worse than dead" what a line lol
I can’t believe that this is a cult classic.
Yeah, it’s a cool idea, but the acting, dialogue, cinematography and editing: holy shit.
It fails on just about every basic level that a movie can fail at.
2.5/10
Wow, that was an emotionally violent breakup. In a subtle way. Hard to watch because I like them both! Amy was brains and beauty, Jonah is philosophical and follows his heart.
"You know, a human can go several hours living after being decapitated." ... "i think you're thinking of a chicken" .... "What did i say?"
