The Office

Last night's episode, "Money," was what I had been waiting for all summer. The first 3 hours of the season have been alright- I mean, they definitely had their moments of hilarity- but they just seemed inconsistent. I felt like by putting all 4 hour-long episodes at the very beginning of the season, the writers were having to stretch the stories out instead of packing the funny stuff in. But fear not! The Office is back.

My favorite parts from this episode:
1) The intro. Yay for Michael's Meryl Streep impersonation ("Get me Armani on the phone. Where is Armani? Too slow. You're not going to Paris. I'm so much better than you.") and yay for Pam figuring out what "manushka" meant ("Mo cuishle! He's watching Million Dollar Baby... He's gonna try to kill me."
2) The conversation about the correct usage of whoever/whomever. ("Nobody asked you anything ever, so whomever's name is Toby, why don't you take a letter opener and stick it in your skull?")
3) Jim and Pam. A night at Schrute Farms with a Harry Potter bedtime story. And the first AMAZING kiss we've gotten to see. Apparently, Jim is really passionate about Italian food. In fact, he's in love with Italian food.
