I love you, Office

[katayla]

1. wings4music wrote an re-mix of my recent HIMYM fic and you should all go read it here because it's awesome.

2. And I finished my character meme answers, which makes me awesome, too. (But feel free to request more!)

3. About crossword puzzles and presidential candidates. (It made me laugh!)

4. School starts on Monday (so late! I know!). Mostly I'm excited, but I'm not entirely sure I'm ready to get back in the mindset of class, homework, having things to do other than watch TV and surf the internet . . .

5. I thought I wasn't excited for The Office, but two hours before it began, I started running around my apartment, cleaning and organizing, because I was too impatient to sit still!


OH MY GOSH!!! THAT HAPPENED, RIGHT???? IT WASN'T JUST MY DELUSIONAL LITTLE BRAIN?????

I read the Ausiello spoiler that said something momentous happened between Jim and Pam in the rain, but I thought he meant way in the future!!! NOT IN THE SEASON PREMIERE!!!

YAY!!!!!!!

Oh yeah, other and other stuff happened:

Holly and Michael really are perfect for each other.

And pooooor Andy. He really does love Angela and she only "likes him very much."

And, uh, I only finished the episode, like, 30 seconds ago, but I forgot everything else that happened.

JIM AND PAM ARE ENGAGED!!!!!


Um, when it snows in Seattle, the whole city freaks out, shuts down, and really bad things happen. I demand an episode about that.

Cristina/Awesome-major-dude-whose-name-I-already-forget-even-though-I-specifically-told-myself-to-remember-it are my new favorite Grey's ship! Cristina is WAY overdue for some action, as well as a major story arc.

I think I like Callie/Erica after all. I was frustrated with it last season, since Callie was SO established as straight, but, since they're dealing with that aspect with it, I'm all for it.

Lexie should hook up with Mark instead of George. Their scenes were cute!

Why wasn't Derek supportive like this last year? In my opinion, HE was the problem, not Meredith. Not that she doesn't/didn't have her issues, but Derek was "Mr. All or nothing" guy and now he's willing to go at her pace? Seriously, I want HIS issues dealt with.

I really don't need to see Denny anymore. For a moment, I thought all the rumors were true, and Izzie had died. Then it would've been okay.

I think they're actually, finally going somewhere with Alex. I mean, I know he was kind of a jerk tonight, but he had his (screwed up!) reasons and maybe they're finally going to address them.


In my unofficial and just made up The Office vs. Grey's Anatomy competition, The Office wins!

Also, my mom didn't send me any of her thoughts on Grey's Anatomy. This makes me sad.

ETA: You all suck because not nearly enough of you are talking about The Office. I HATE YOU! (Okay, no, I love each and everyone of you. But WATCH THE OFFICE!)

We agree almost on nothing with Grey's. Our mojo has been messed with...

Anywho, I loved the army/surgeon dude (who's name I can't remember, either) but I honestly got pissed at all his interaction with Cristina. Yeah, I saw the sparks and it was amusing but I kept thinking 'no, she belongs with Burke! He's kickass too!' Obviously, I miss Burke and want him back. =P

I never understood the Derek hate, b/c I always thought it was mostly Mer's fault. Sure, I found him annoying and maybe a little bland, but I didn't hate the guy. And yet, in this episode I wanted to punch him. I'm strange.

Lexie should hook up with Mark instead of George. Their scenes were cute!

STFU. Lexie does deserve better than George. Mark and Lexie's scenes were cute. Yes, I wondered if they were just going to do it or not. BUT MARK DOESN'T GET ANYONE THAT ISN'T A RANDOM NURSE WHO'LL DISAPPEAR COME THE NEXT EPISODE, ME, OR IZZIE. OTHERWISE, I'M NOT HEARING IT. Okay, but Mark would be a better choice. I missed Mark so much, btw! I love him so much.

Given that it was a two hour premiere, I thought it wasn't enough Alex. I was thinking that finally they were taking him somewhere, but his storyline was not fleshed out enough. They could've done so much more there, but alas...but it's better to have signs of something rather than nothing.

I don't really know what to think of the premiere yet. On one hand, it got pretty stupid sometimes (the icicle, the redundant "#12" mentions) and on the other hand, we had the Mer/Cristina flashforward ("What would happen to me without you?" - "You'd starve." or something to that effect, was awesome). I don't know, I don't know.

And the Denny bit made me cry. As soon as Izzie stepped into that elevator, I thought 'oh, crap, if they do some idiotic Denny bit' but it wasn't idiotic for me and I began crying. I began wishing that Shonda had done a reset. That Izzie had a terrible 'what if Denny died' scenario playing in her head that caused this terrible domino effect. But that was just my brain going into overdrive and getting delusional. So instead there was no series reset, Denny's still dead, Gizzie still happened, & Alex still broke Addison's heart.

And thus ends the longest comment ever. Sue me if I want to distract myself from the ever-boring paper I'm doing last minute b/c I can write a two-page paper within an hour anyway. =P

Don't cut me for my nonsensical randomness. :( I LOVE YOU.

OMG I HAD TO SCROLL DOWN NOT TO SEE THE OFFICE SPOILERSSKJDFKL!
I AM SO EXCITEDJKHFDGJKFH!! I WANT TO GO HOME AND WATCH IT NOW!

i am not that excited about grey's though.. i don't know, last season was so dull and disappointing, i just don't know what to expect from this season.

I see this sentence from your entry: I think they're actually, finally going somewhere with Alex.

well that is good news, because they totally wasted him last season. They wasted pretty much everyone by drowning us with the silly problems of grey. i hope she gets better this season, because i won't be able to take anymore of "omg do i love mcdreamy or not" drama.

If McCain’s name was Obama, then his name would have been used many more times in crosswords.

OHM THE OFFICE WAS AMAZING! RYAN IS BACK! HE NEVER REALLY PROCESSED 9/11!!! HE LOVES KELLY! MICHAEL LEAD THEM TO BELIEE HE WAS THE FATHER BY SAYING HE WAS THE FATHER! KELLY IS PERFECT THE WAY SHE IS. OMG JIM ASKED PAM TO MARRY HIM AND SHE SAID YES. DWIGHT AND ANGELA ARE HAVING SEX IN THE WEARHOUSE. POOR TOBY STILL HASN'T SEEN THE BEACH.

IT'S THE NEXT MORNING AND I AM STILL IN CAPSLOCK!!! :D

Loved The Office last night! I was so glad to have it back, and I definitely wasn't expecting Jim and Pam to get engaged, which made it even better. I feel bad for Andy, too, but I felt even worse for Dwight last year when Angela broke up with him. Angela needs to make up her mind already.

Michael and Holly are perfect for each other, even if he's still utterly clueless, what with the whole ripping the tickets up thing. I also loved Holly and Oscar being friends.

omg Jim and Pam!!

And yea The Office SO WINS over Greys. But it always kind of does for me anyway. I always watch The Office live and then record Greys and watch it afterwards for that reason.

I think I like Callie/Erica after all. I was frustrated with it last season, since Callie was SO established as straight, but, since they're dealing with that aspect with it, I'm all for it.
I think of it as they're both just 2's on the Kinsey scale. Are you familiar with that? Where 6 is totally gay and 0 is totally straight. If you're a 2 you could call yourself straight or bi. Meaning that you find the same sex attracive but it's entirely possible that you'd never meet a person that would make you want to explore that. It depends.

I kind of got the Lexie/Mark vibes too. Although I think her crush on George is pretty cute.

Yea, while a part of me liked seeing Denny when he appeared I literally said out loud to myself "They're really milking this to death aren't they?" haha

OMG YAY WE'RE BOTH ON THE SAME PAGE WITH THE OFFICE AND GREY'S! ♥

Lexie & Mark!! ~~~~~~~~ made of win.

AND CRISTINA/HUNT! DUDE! THAT WAS MAJOR! it's gonna be great this season. My faith in this show is totally restored.

Do you know what's gonna happen to Izzie/Heigl. I've very away from the gossip on that matter. Is she 100 % leaving the show or what?
