THE OFFICE Thursday on Give Me My Remote
October 4, 2007 by Kath Skerry
Please don’t throw garbage at me but we’re going to have a super quick THE OFFICE Thursday post today. Craziness has ensued on my life today and I’m a busy, busy girl. I have to get some stuff taken care of today…you don’t want me to miss THE OFFICE tonight, do you? Let’s jump in, and then you all can take over Office Thursday for me, ok?
Tonight on The Office…
“Dunder Mifflin Infinity” | 9/8c on NBC | 1-hour episode
Much to the dismay of Michael and many of the employees, Ryan returns to the Scranton branch of Dunder Mifflin to bring the company into the digital age. Angela is still upset about her cat.
LIVE Office Chat Tonight…
Thanks to those who stopped by the LIVE Office chat at BuddyTV last week. I wasn’t sure if I was going to continue them (I’m still not sure) but let’s give it a whirl tonight and see how it goes. I was in L.A. last week and couldn’t really hang in the chat, so I’m excited to watch with all of you tonight. Things kick off around 8:30ish over at BuddyTV.com.
Did you know that Kate Flannery was a stunt woman? Well at least she was in last week’s episode. Next to Roy’s DUI picture that was one of the funniest visuals in OFFICE history. Nice job, Kate. Head on over to Kate’s blog and read up on the antics of last week’s premiere including the Office premiere party. I wasn’t too far away…if only I had known. (Kate’s Blog)
OFFICE Question of the Week…
Dwangla had a rough week last week. What do you think is in store for their romantic relationship this season? What would you like to see happen?
More OFFICE Thursday after the jump
The Office Fan Spotlight…
Here’s something new I thought we’d try out for Office Thursdays. Get to know your fellow Office fan as we put the spotlight on a new fan each week. If you’d like to be a featured in “the spotlight” just email me at info(at)givememyremote(dot)com, Subject: The Office Fan Spotlight. I will contact each of you individually about next steps. I guess I’ll start with me…(although I think most of you know me by now)
Name: Jenn (Jenafur when I post comments on GMMR)
Hometown: Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada
Favorite Office Character: Tough choice, but I will say Creed
Favorite Office Episode: The Dundies (some PB&J lip action!)
Favorite Office Quote: Congratulations Universe, you win – (the hotness) Jim Halpert
This Year on the Office I would like to see…more on-air Creed! While it was dawesome that Creed scenes took up a huge portion of season 3 deleted scenes, I would like to see more Creed scenes actually make the final cut!
The Office Video of the Week…
You’ll be hooked in the first seconds…fantastic!!

Ah! No video of the week? That’s the highlight of my Office Thursdays…. well, okay it’s my methadone to hold me over till my next fix of The Office.
K maybe not the healthiest of metaphors, but you get the idea! Love ya GMMR!
Sorry…I messed up the code. It’s there now.
LOVED THE VIDEO!!! Seeing all those moments combined together nearly killed me. 😉
As for the QUESTION OF THE WEEK. I honestly couldn’t say where Dwight & Angela are heading. I’ve heard some people speculate on the possiblity of a triangle. Honestly, whatever the writers do, I’m ok with. (So long as I don’t have to deal with a Peanut butter & Jelly breakup – then I might have to hurt someone)
But, as for me, I would be tempted to torture someone who killed my pet. Possibly try to scrape layers off of their skin and set them on fire kind of torture. And I’m not even a cat person to the extent that Angela is….soooooooo I’m guessing it’s not looking good right now for Dwight.
I am so FREAKING excited. Like always.
My prediction is that Dwight will have some making up to do, and I’m wondering if Andy (Drew?!) might be there to comfort Angela – seeing how Dwight is lacking in this area. Hmmmmmmmmm?
QUESTION OF THE WEEK…
I think Dwangela is going to be the new love triangle that comes up this season…I don’t know if it has already been brought up…but I seriously think Andy wnats to hook up with Angela…and after last week I think that relationship might get propeled further…just an idea…even though Andy did get Dwight fired last season…he was being nice to her after her cat died…
I love Thursdays – that is all 🙂
I think that Dwangela was all fun and games until something really serious-like death-came along. Most couples are good until the hard times…then those fundamental differences in personalities can really come out and possibly hurt the relationship if you can’t work through them. So I think this was the start of a pretty big rift that may need a huge gesture of love near the end of the season to win Angela back over to Team Schrute!
That’s what I would like to see anyway, Dwight coming out of his shell to prove his love!
So excited for Office Thursday! I’ll definitely try to stop by the chat tonight, too. I have tons going on tonight will try my best!
I agree that I could see a love triangle happening with Dwangela and Andy. I definitely hope Dwangela wins out, but I am looking forward to the possiblity of more Ed Helms on the show and seeing Andy trying to woo Angela! Maybe we’ll get a better idea if that is the direction they’re taking in tonight’s episode!
I apologize if this has been posted somewhere, but I haven’t seen it. Angela was on ‘Take Home Handyman’ on TLC. They helped her update her house and lots of the Office cast appear as well. In my area, it’s airing Saturday, but here is the link to video’s and pics. Mindy and Andrew Dan-Jumbo together are too funny.

I said it last week after the season premiere, and I’ll say it again here. I think we’ve got an Dwight-Angela-Andy love triangle on our hands. Who knows how far it’ll go, but it will certainly make for good comedy. If Angela feels scorned, she will stop at nothing to exact her revenge. Just watch the hilarity ensue.
I also predict that Jim and Pam will be instrumental in consoling Dwight after the break-up and helping him get Angela back. Those two can’t help but care for their officemates – especially Dwight and Michael.
Yeah, it’s Thursday!!!
Looking forward to hopefully seeing all the usual suspects.
Can’t wait for Andyla or whatever it’s to be called. Love it!
And that’s a GREAT video. Loved the voiceovers. Now I’m all nervous about tonight. How long can they date and stay happy? Forever I hope!! 🙂
Tonight’s going to be awesome – very excited for Ryan’s smug return.
And hey guys, I just created a page on Mahalo for “The Office Quotes”, which is a collection of websites and videos of the best office quotes – can you guys take a look and let me know what you think? What I should add? If you happen to have any other good links? I’d love to get approval from the best Office fans. Thanks!

I think Angela will be so mad at Dwight about the cat, that she will not only break up with him, but will also overlook Andy’s past treachery with Dwight. After all, he was mean to Dwight, who turned out to be a cat killer.
But, I don’t think any relationship will really last with Angela/Andy, so I think eventually she will end up back with Dwight.
I also love Megan’s idea that Jim & Pam will help Dwight get through, and possibly reconcile with Angela.
Poor Andy, I see him being the rebound guy to get dumped unceremoniously when Dwight wins Angela back.
Whatever happens, it’s all good!! If we’ve learned one thing over four seasons it’s this: TRUST THE WRITERS! How many other shows can say that?
ANyone know how to find the pics Kate mantions in her blog? She said wireimages and getty have them up (of their private premier party last week) but I couldn’t find them.

The pictures were up at Getty Images. It was the Office premiere party sponsored by Nivea or something to that effect.
Saw this on SI today: http://spiritofjakeplummer.blogspot.com/2007/10/mlb-playoff-preview-whos-hot-whos-not.html . Now I am a Red Sox fan but I think I am in love with the Rockies 😉 Sorry, NSFW.
Great vid of the week =) “Everything” is by far my favorite Lifehouse song so that was a plus (though i do enjoy the upbeat part of the song, but i understand taking that out worked better w/ the overall vid). Anyway, loved the video.
And i agree, JennyL (#12): it all seems too good to be true. I’m happy w/ where they’re at right now but i’m worried that it has come so soon that they’ll break up any moment now. Boy, i am being such a Negative Nancy right now =P
Can’t wait for tonight’s episode!
Omeletville (#9)~ Thanks for the info! That was great! Hmmm… now what neighbor can I bum a little cable television off of this weekend? 😉
My video is the video of the week?? =D I’m freaking flattered! Thank you soooo much!!!
