    So, is it any good? The last season was pretty dire.

    I idly tuned into "The Office: An American Workplace" as it's titled over here with frankly low expectations, as the Gervais product was so good.b,121b,121But Carrell was SLAYING IT. FACT.

    font class="post"1b,121b,121I loved it. I would have said something sooner, 'cept going by these replies I figured I'd wait till everybody caught up via the webcast. Real good tying up of loose ends - SPOILER ALERT[/b] Jim finally proposed to Pam, and Angela is looking real good this season, not as frumpy as before.1Approximate quote from her would-be fiance (NOT Dwight): "I gotta lose some weight and get some six-pack abs so I'll be in good shape when me and Angela start having sex!!" In the meantime, she's giving it up to Dwight on the sly...

    Toby! I haven't seen the episode yet, but didn't he head to Ecuador or something?1b,121b,121I always thought Angela looked pretty good, too -- and my girlfriend totally called it last year; didn't know she was preggers but she said she had that look of the "sickness." b,121b,121Not sure if you guys caught this on the1celeb news wires, but the dude who plays Daryl was arrested a few weeks back, possibly on several felonies, for possession of ecstasy and a host of other drugs -- the type of stuff that, in all likelihood, would result in jail time for an average joe.
