The Office Rundown: Episode 14, "Goodbye, Toby Parts 1 & 2"

OMG, where to start?!

OMG, where to start?! The season finale of The Office was so. Freaking. Great. I honestly think this is hugely due to Amy Ryan's spot-on performance as the new HR lady at Dunder-Mifflin. I loved her! And then there were all the twists and turns (that didn't just have to do with Pam and Jim, like that very last scene!). And the whole storyline with Kevin is, I think, one of the funniest, cleverest things I've seen on television in a long time.

The going-away party for Toby was amazing! It made me so happy for the new party planner in town, Phyllis, as though she's an actual person I know in real life. Sometimes I think I get too involved in these shows. I really wanted to give her a hug.

Also, thanks to Creed, there now exists the job title of "Quabity Aschwitz." Amazing.

The Office: Last Night's Most Relatable Moments

It's difficult to pick the most relatable moments from last night's episode of The Office, because the whole thing had me flashing back to previous office moments of my own!

It's difficult to pick the most relatable moments from last night's episode of The Office, because the whole thing had me flashing back to previous office moments of my own! Well, except for the ferris wheel and fireworks at Toby's going away party. But the whole premise of being suspicious of a new co-worker — in this case Toby's replacement, Holly — was pretty spot on. While we (hopefully!) don't creepily peek through blinds and watch the new person like Michael and Dwight in the clip below, there's certainly plenty of judgment surrounding a new employee on her first day.

Most of us have probably been on both sides of the situation — we've felt like the new kid at school and slightly territorial when somebody new joins the team. Dwight says to Holly, "Have you met Kevin, he's here on a special work program. He's slow, ya know, in his brain." Then he follows up with the camera and says, "Hazing is a fun way to show a new employee that she is not welcome or liked." I don't know about hazing, but there's definitely a suspicious curiosity that surfaces when a new employee comes along. Check out the clip below of Michael and Dwight plotting against Holly, and if you missed last night's season finale BuzzSugar has the full recap.

The Office: Last Night's Most Relatable Moments

Last night's episode of The Office followed Michael, Pam, Oscar, and Darryl on their field trip to the job fair at a local high school.

Last night's episode of The Office followed Michael, Pam, Oscar, and Darryl on their field trip to the job fair at a local high school. Michael told Pam to bring only one piece of paper with them to the fair, because "a blank sheet of paper equals endless possibilities." When a kid signs his name on the single sheet of paper, Michael insists that it's damaged goods and unusable. Michael sends Pam on the hunt for a new sheet of paper and she's obviously frustrated with Micheal's stubborn and insensible antics. Are any of you familiar with I-want-things-the-way-I-want-them demands (even if they don't make any logical sense) that Pam has to deal with from her boss? I've sure been there before. Check out the clip below, and if you missed last night's episode BuzzSugar has a full recap!

The Office Rundown: Episode 12, "Did I Stutter?"

After last week's trip to the NYC nightclub, this episode of The Office took us back to, well, the actual office.


After last week's trip to the NYC nightclub, this episode of The Office took us back to, well, the actual office. I'm generally in favor of the episodes that take place inside Dunder-Mifflin, but this one was a little strange for me — draggy in parts, then funny, then draggy again.

I do love me some Stanley, though, and this episode was a great showcase for him at his prickly, disrespectful best. His contempt for Michael really showed through. Speaking of contempt, Ryan stopped by the D-M offices with some harsh words for Jim, and Andy and Dwight displayed their manliness (sort of) by fighting over Andy's car. And we got to learn Pam's middle name and see her in her granny glasses, so those are both points in the episode's favor.

The Office Rundown: Episode 11, "Night Out"

Man, Ryan is a schmuck!

Man, Ryan is a schmuck! I loved this episode of The Office in that it paired up Ryan's ridiculous cockiness with Michael's cluelessness and Dwight's bizarre social skills and set it all the "hip" environment of a nightclub.

Meanwhile, back at Dunder-Mifflin, Jim has everyone work late so they don't have to come into the office the next day. Problem: the gate out of the parking lot is locked. While trapped together, Toby makes a big announcement.

The Office's Angela Kinsey Is Barefoot and Pregnant

Who knew Angela Kinsey, who plays the hilariously uptight Angela on The Office, is barefoot and pregnant?

Who knew Angela Kinsey, who plays the hilariously uptight Angela on The Office, is barefoot and pregnant? I hadn't noticed her growing belly while watching the recent episodes of the show, but she and Jenna Fischer, who plays the adorable Pam Beesly, recently sat down to do a little promo video for the show, revealing the petite star's baby bump.

Angela's advice? If you ever play the "how many pieces of toilet paper will fit around the pregnant woman?" game at a baby shower, guess low for the momma-to-be's sake!

The Office Convention Just Keeps Getting Cooler

Have you booked your tickets to Scranton yet?

Have you booked your tickets to Scranton yet? The Office Convention is now less than two weeks away, and the lineup of visiting guests is making this event a must-attend for serious Dunder Mifflin-heads.

As of today, almost the entire supporting cast of is scheduled to attend the Oct. 26-28 events, from Creed Bratton to Angela Kinsey to Mindy Kaling (Kelly). Executive producer Greg Daniels will also be in attendance, bringing with him writers Paul Lieberstein (Toby) and Craig Robinson (Darryl). So far, it's not looking like any of the big four (Steve Carell, Jenna Fischer, Rainn Wilson, John Krasinski) will make the trip — but who needs them when you've got Bob Vance, Vance Refrigeration?

The organizers have put together a truly inspired schedule of events, including a live Today Show broadcast with Al Roker, a character look-alike contest, the Office Olympics, and, yes, a Casino Night. Tickets range from $25 ("the intern") to $250 ("corporate"), with varying numbers of events, cast appearances and VIP parties included in each.

So, who's going to be Buzz's Electric City correspondent for the weekend?

The "Office" Convention is On!

Hey, "Office" fans, it's time to book your flights to Scranton.

Hey, "Office" fans, it's time to book your flights to Scranton. Over the weekend, as cast members Angela Kinsey and Brian Baumgartner visited the home of Dunder Mifflin, the organizers of the inaugural "Office" Convention announced that the event would be a go.

The convention is set for Oct. 26-28, 2007, and there's more information on this official site. Details on ticket prices and events will be coming later, but it sounds like landmark sites from the show will be involved. (For a primer, check out this quiz on "Office" geography — I had no idea there wasn't actually a Chili's in Scranton!) Here's what the organizers have to say about it:

"The Electric City" is celebrating the best comedy on TV by inviting Dunder-heads to converge on Northeast Pa. for a full weekend of pretending to hang out with other peoples' co-workers. Think of it like a Star Trek convention but with nerds wearing Dwight Schrute glasses instead of Spock ears.

Ain't no party like a Scranton party, indeed.
