hm. what to say…i am kind of indifferent about the office finale. it certainly wasn’t bad, but there were some things that irked me. let’s go over it all. first, jim planned on proposing to pam, which i was super excited about, but knew something was going to interfere. low and behold andy proposes to angela first. although i love andy, what the hell was he thinking? he stole jim’s thunder and angela didn’t seem too thrilled when she answered with a less-than-enthusiastic “okay.” i felt so bad for dwight. “it’s my own fault,” he sais. first time we’ve really ever seen dwight blame himself for something. really touching and no doubt going to make for an excellent story arc for next season. especially because phyllis catches angela and dwight hooking up in the office at the end of the episode. poor andy. my prediction is that angela will let phyllis take over the party planning committee if she remains quiet. should be fun to watch.

now with jim and pam, the poor guy paid for fireworks and had the friggen ring in his hand ready to propose! so sad. and pam was obviously disappointed that he didn’t do it. as for ryan, he is behind bars for theft and it’s very convenient that his job position in nyc will open at the same time pam is off to the city for design school. i see jim landing a promotion and thus being lose to pam.

now for the disappointments (besides the lack of pam/jim engagement). jan and michael. ugh. she’s pregnant, which means she is staying on the show. at this point, i could live without her character. she says she went to a sperm bank, but i think the baby is her former assistant hunter’s. oh yeah. poor michael. i can’t believe i am saying this but michael scott is too good for her. nonetheless, he plans on being in the baby’s life. gag.

and finally, poor toby is gone and it pains me to see him leave. some of the best comedic moments on the show were exchanged between michael and toby. i have hope he will make a guest appearance in the future. as for the spin-off, it remains unclear who it will involve. so far, ryan’s status as a castmember is also up in the air. he was arrested and therefore, is unlikely to stay at dunder mifflin, so what are they going to do with his character? not sure, but despite his air of subtle arrogance, i like ryan. he and kelly belong together in a strange and annoying way. love it.

it was nice to see the finale got back into the swing of things in terms of comedy. the last few episodes have been kind of mediocre, but i was definitely keeping my laugh up thursday.

i don’t know how i am going to last till fall. i am going through office withdrawl already.
