The Office - Top Ten (the Revival)

OK, I know I kind of ragged Beth back in October when she posted her Office top ten list - but that's my job.

But Thursday night's episode (Back From Vacation) was maybe the funniest one yet. I mean, there were "pee in your pants" moments - and the older I get, the more dangerous those moments become...

So, here's my version of 'The Office Top Ten - the Revival':

#10 - Michael to Stanley - "You are not as much fun as your Jamaican brothers - mon."

#9 - Toby - "Nine different people emailed me that photo, including my ex-wife - and we don't even talk."
Michael - "This is probably the ice breaker you need."

#8 - Michael to Jan - "And I - to you - in addition feel - the same feelings - that you are - as well."

#7 - Kevin to Jan - "You look...tan."

#6 - Michael - "I'm not dating Jan. She was very clear on that."

#5 - Dwight to Pam - "You're PMSing pretty bad, huh?"

#4 - Michael to Dwight - "...the file name is 'Jamaican Jan Sun Princess'."

#3 - Michael to Jan - (Accompanied with hand gestures) "You. Complete. Me."

#2 - Dwight - "Let the record show that Jim Halpert is a liar."

#1 - The slight darting of Michael's eyes to the camera, along with the most subtle of smiles, when he realizes that he's not getting reprimanded by Jan for sending out the photo, but instead, she's telling him that she wants to continue the 'relationship'.

OK, my number 1 might not be your number 1, or even in your top 10. But, the look on his face at that moment was classic. I had to watch it back about 3 times right then. Then, when Ray fell asleep, I had to watch the entire thing over again. And - even though he only got one mention in my top 10, my favorite character for the moment is Kevin. He is hilarious. When I first started watching, he just annoyed me, but now that I 'know' him better, he cracks me up! I think our bond began when I discovered how much he likes the shredder - a major point we have in common.

Changing topics. Does anyone watch "Dexter" - a series on Showtime? I caught it relatively late in the 1st Season, but it is really good. They've just started InDemand service through Cox, so I was able to catch up on all of the episodes I missed this weekend - it was a "Dexter" marathon. Anyway, I'm sure they will be showing them again before the next season starts up, so for any of you who have Showtime, I would recommend that you check it out.

My current fav is Michael - totally because of his facial expressions! The look on Michal's face when the Asian girl comes around the corner on the bike he gave her while he's singing "Your Body is a Wonderland" to the wrong Asian girl - that look was a classic! Then, when he marked the girl's arm, I nearly fell off the bed - and nearly peed my pants! I enjoyed this week’s episode as well, but I’ve only seen it once, while I was fighting Ella, so I need to rewatch.

P.S. Thanks for updating the blog - I was getting kinda sad that the only thing I was using "Everything Susan" for was a stepping stone for "Pink is the new Blog!"
