falulatonksI'm very, very happy that TV show I was least excited about today was the one that left me the most satisfied and smiling. :D The Office's Lecture Circuit was one of my favourite episodes in such a long time - Jim and Dwight! Michael and Pam! Pam and Karen! And the other characters in the background but still present and used really well...wow. How fantastic. :D
30 Rock was great, as always, but I feel like I'm getting repetitive saying things like that all the time. I had a problem, though - every time Jack's storyline came on I wanted to see what was going on with Liz and Jon Hamm, and every time Liz/Jon Hamm came on-screen I wanted to see Jack, so I was really torn. Alec Baldwin is unbelievably, undeniably fantastic. The last scene made me too happy. YAY. 'Ship, come forth! This episode was magnifico! Who cares if that isn't a word!!
Bones, you disappointed me. Grave Digger was such an awesome, affecting, thrilling thing, and you took that away from me! I was happy twice during this episode: whenever Booth called that ghost dude "corporal" (corporeal, get it?!?!) and at the end, for that damn one second hug. That was fierce, man, why didn't it go on longer?!
I was watching a few episodes of S1 of Arrested Development again and I was thinking about how freakishly well the show'd been cast. It's amazing. (Also, I love episodes when Michael and Lindsay and/or GOB get along, because I love how well they actually work as a family, which is surprising for how screwed up they can get.)

I don't have anything else to say, except I've recently started making tea on my own, properly, and I'm finally starting to make me some really good tea. Really good. Seriously.

- Jim and Dwight were probably my favourite. They're such crazy silly brothers. I loved their talking head together, talking over each other and fighting for personal space, and them talking over the divider to Kelly (♥), like the need the divider for protection or something, and Dwight finally getting annoyed and asking "what cake do you want, imbecile?", and Dwight matching the balloons with the carpet and Jim asking "not even an exclamation point?!", and Dwight going "who's this?" on the phone and Jim going "this is Mose, who do you think this is?!?" - I LOVE when they get annoyed with each other. I'm pretty sure they make my life.
- KAREN! Happy with Dan the Dermatologist who's tall and dorky but didn't ditch her by a fountain and loves her and everything. ♥ I'm not only happy about her, I'm happy about Karen and Pam, because it's awkward but they're happy and THAT HUG!! YESSS. I AM SO HAPPY FOR THEM.
- I loved Pam this episode like I haven't loved her in ages. She felt like a toned down version of S4/S5!Pam, you know? and that made me happy, because I miss old!Pam. And her hating the fact that people hate her? So me. :D I haven't empathised with her in years.
- Other things I really loved -
- Andy: "Guys, stop everything; I need to ask out this girl and I'm completely panicking."
Oscar: "Oh, my desk is..." *walks away* - Jim: "Do you think I'm calling you for your best approximation?!"
- Kelly: "I think sometimes people are really mean to the hot, popular girl."
- Andy: "What we have here is the ultimate smack-down between the Nard-Dog and crippling despair, loneliness, and depression. I intend to win."
- "I guess my only wish would be that nothing so terrible would ever happen to anyone else ever again."
(Jim sighs, Dwight: "Oh god.")
"In a way, it's good that it happened to me, because at least I can bear it - "
"What cake do you want, imbecile?"
"Ice-cream." - The sight of going to the conference room and seeing Dwight not at all mastering tape and having those tiny, fugly balloons on the table was amazing.
- I loved how Karen handled Michael. No-nonsense but accepting that with Michael around, you're going to have to stand some nonsense.
- "1, 2, 3, 4, Splendas in your coffee, Stanley."
- Andy: "Guys, stop everything; I need to ask out this girl and I'm completely panicking."
- Yayyy, Mindy Kaling. After Night Out I really didn't like you much at all, and Branch Wars and Ben Franklin aren't my favourite episodes ever, but this episode reminded me of your golden The Injury and The Dundies (♥) so YAY. :D

Date: 2009-02-06 03:32 pm (UTC)Exactly! I love them together. :D It's so excellent. They annoy each other so wonderfully. "Mose doesn't know how to use a phone, so the joke's on you!" Awesome.
And the Karen/Pam shippers rejoiced! I really loved that moment, and I loved how Pam loved it too. She's adorable. I'm a little suspicious about Karen's marriage coming so fast, but (a) she herself commented that "it's all happening so fast" and (b) I have no idea how much time has passed, since the other day they said Roy left "years ago" and I have no idea how long this is supposed to...be. So, whatever.
The 'Nard Dog is as sublimely embarrassing as ever. I can barely watch him...but I love it.

Date: 2009-02-07 03:28 pm (UTC)haha. People've been telling me that maybe they met at the bar and she got pregnant and then they got married, but that's mean and I want her to be happy the way she seems to be, and yes, "it's all happening so fast", she acknowledged it!!
I love Andy, but he's so quick to embarrass himself. The only other character I feel compelled to cover my eyes around is Michael, so.
