The first season seemed very tightly constructed, while the second season was a lot looser and somewhat... trippy. Which was fine, because eventually Don's wanderings brought him back home.Season 3 is more of a mixed bag. Like season 2, it's a bit loose - perhaps reflecting the restless feelings that these characters have been wrestling with since the end of season 1. But I've also noticed that

Obviously, I've all but abandoned this site, at least for the time being. I probably won't be doing Office "best moments" at all any more, except for maybe the old episode "Phyllis's Wedding" when I can catch it in reruns - it's the one episode I missed during the seasons when I was doing these regularly.(You may have noticed I also started doing the first-season episodes as well, but I just

I won't be recapping it. I don't know if I'll even have time to watch it. But I felt like I should at least acknowledge that it's starting tonight. :-)

Kevin: Why am I a racist?Michael: Because you think he's black.Michael: Why did the convict have to be a black guy? It is such a stereotype.

This one aired before I started doing "Great Moments," but I recently caught the rerun and just happened to have a pen handy. It's the one where someone leaves a big stinky fudge dragon in Michael's office.Ryan: Jim's been looking at me kind of a lot all week.

I had hoped to get a taste of the two new tea flavors before writing the recap, but I couldn't find any. The Snapple website says that Shaw's has it in Massachusetts, but I didn't see any in the store I went to - nor even an empty spot for it on the shelf where it would have been. It was a big shelf, too, filled to capacity (having just been restocked) with regular, peach, and raspberry tea. No

So much for getting this done in time for the finale. Sorry about that. This recap will focus on the firings and not the Snapple task. Needless to say, the recap of the final task will be a few more days.The episode starts with a boardroom meeting in which the contestants must explain why they shouldn't be fired.Peete says Kanellis is the weakest, and that she sometimes puts people down just for

Recalling the negative comments that Kanellis and Osbourne made about Stone the previous week, Trump swaps the men on the two teams.RockSolid: Maria Kanellis and Curtis Stone, led by Sharon Osbourne, probably because she's the only one who hasn't won yet.Tenacity: Cyndi Lauper and Bret Michaels, led by Holly Robinson Peete who didn't want to do it and doesn't need more winnings, but no one else

Ears/Eyes: Ivanka & Eric Trump. Eric is another Trump son. He seems like he might be better at this than Junior, but perhaps he's simply more telegenic. It's hard to tell with just one episode.Task/Sponsor: Produce three 30-second radio ads for Clockwork Home Services. The sponsor will donate an additional $20K to the winning team.In their meetings with the teams, the Clockwork execs come across

Trump begins the episode by switching up the teams. He moves Stone to Tenacity, and sends Osbourne and Kanellis to RockSolid. I take one look at the new teams and decide they should be renamed.Happy Fun Gang (okay, Rocksolid): Maria Kanellis, Bret Michaels, led by Sharon Osbourne who was the only one who hadn't led a project or won anything for her charity yet.After School Study Club Plus Cindy

Dwight: Is that the program where all those puppets live in the barrio? I love that show.Kevin: They're making fun of Cookie Monster. I get that. But in a strange way, it feels like they're making fun of me.Erin: My last job was at a Taco Bell Express, but then it became a full Taco Bell, and I couldn't keep up.Michael: I asked for pickles on my burger, and there are only like five or six.Erin:

And I still don't have cable, so I won't be recapping it. But at least now you know what to set your calendar to.I have Season 3 on DVD, but when I will get around to watching it, and when or if I'll have time to recap it, is another mystery.

Rocksolid: Bret Michaels, Curtis Stone, led by Bill Goldberg who was chosen out of fairness because he hadn't led a project yet even though Michaels was the obvious choice based on the task, which was described prior to PM selection. (Trump questions RockSolid's decision immediately.)Tenacity: Maria Kanellis, Sharon Osbourne, Holly Robinson Peete, Summer Sanders, led by Cyndi Lauper who was

Rocksolid: Bill Goldberg, Michael Johnson, Bret Michaels, led by Curtis Stone. It's not clear whether Stone volunteers, is nominated, has to argue with Goldberg, etc., but the decision is made very quickly.Tenacity: Maria Kanellis, Selita Ebanks, Summer Sanders, and sort of Cyndi Lauper, led by Holly Robinson Peete.

I thought I posted this two weeks ago, but when I checked my list today, I saw that it was still in "draft" status. Oops! Sorry for the delay.I thought Stanley was going to have another heart attack, and that would be the end of him. But I don't blame him for risking death to go home early! Other than that, I found nearly every line of this episode to be hilarious. Easily the funniest episode in

Teams:Trump splits the candidates into the usual male and female teams and tells them to come up with names. He adds a twist: Each team is to pick the other's captain.Rocksolid:The men (Rod Blagojevich, Bill Goldberg, Michael Johnson, Bret Michaels, Sinbad, Curtis Stone, Darryl Strawberry) select Cyndi Lauper to head the women's team on the assumption that the others will find her annoying and

...Not recaps exactly, but I've decided I'll continue to do the summary portion (task, team lineup & captain, outcome, fired, donation). No detailed blow-by-blow or lengthy rants - I'll limit myself to maybe 100 words of combined synopsis and commentary. And if the show starts pissing me off to the point where I can't even do a summary without going into a tirade, then I'll just quit watching. No

Hey guys,Work has been CRAZY. I worked more than 120 hours in the last two weeks. Fortunately, there's an end in sight within a week or two (knock on wood - anybody who deals with deadlines knows how these things go... the big deadlines often leave a bunch of little baby deadlines in their wake).I know I owe you two weeks' worth of The Office Great Moments. I've still got 'em on the machine.

Awesomely, but not surprisingly, Mad Men notched itself a couple more awards last night for Outstanding Drama Series and for writing ("Meditations in an Emergency"). Congrats!
