I thought it was a great episode! Creed freaked me out with his joker costume, wow was he good! I felt so bad that Holly and Michael broke up. I wish that Holly would stay on the show. My favorite quote was probably Creed’s ‘put a smile on that face’ line!
The Office is my favorite show, but I was a little disappointed with this episode. The Halloween scene was so short – it seemed strange after the opening that the characters were no longer in their costumes. Also, there were so many different things going on in so many different places it was hard to follow. I’m sad Holly’s gone – maybe she can make a guest appearance here and there. I hope Michael doesn’t go back with Jan! I also didn’t find the lunch with Jim’s brothers to be that great. Here’s hoping for next week!
P.S. I was also hoping that the Dwangela-Andy love triangle would come out in the open with the Dwight-Andy debacle. Especially at the end when Andy came in dressed up as Dwight, and the camera focused directly on Angela, I was hoping she would say something climactic regarding her relationship with the two. I want Dwight and Angela back together!
I thought the Halloween scene was great. I was a little disappointed that that was all there was though. I liked that Dwight was messing with Andy and when Andy tried to do it back, it bombed ’cause he couldn’t bite the beet. I used to love Andy but now he just annoys me.
I, too, didn’t care for Jim’s brothers. I did catch that his one brother (the one with hair) made a Jim face at the camera. That was cute. I realize we aren’t supposed to love them though… good job with that… cause yeah, they’re a couple of douchebags. How did Jim turn out nice?
There was something else… Oh yeah. Michael and Holly. Yeah it was pretty dumb that they broke up already over fear that it wasn’t going to last. I thought they were too perfect of a couple to just give up like that, but whatever, I guess that’s real life right? I cracked up that when Darrell was “singing the blues” on the way home, Michael didn’t have a clue what to do and just kept repeating him “danahna nahna”.
Yeah Creed’s make-up was scary. LOL’d that there were 3 Jokers. And Jim as “Dave”. That may be even more Jim-like than the 3-hole punch.
NnnnnnOOOOOOOOooooooo!!!!!!!!
What the frigg?? What were they thinking????
Corporate STINKS!
Come BAAAACK HOLLY – Michael need YOU!
He may not even know it himself…but WE DO…c’mon!
Michael – what is the MATTER with YOU?
GO BACK and GET HER!
(whew…I’m spent…I’ve used up all of my emotions……)
Loved the bit w/ Dwight & Andy – do MORE of this!
Loved everyone’s costumes (would have been nice if they had worn them longer) and when Pam said she couldn’t take off her hat because she’d look like Hitler…
Cracked up at Dwight and Andy’s feud and when they were “interviewing” each other…
Wished Michael and Holly’s relationship would have lasted longer, and wished that Pam (or Jim) would have thrown something at Jim’s brothers!
I agree Tsuz, Jim’s brothers really irritated me. I guess we’re not supposed to like them? I’m glad Jim turn out to be so great! I also wished they would’ve kept their costumes on longer, that was way too short.
