But I was under the impression Toby could only be fired by the head office. Michael has no power over him or he would have been fired long ago.

Nobody said it had to be Michael firing him.

If Ryan is fired from corporate can Michael hire him back at the Scranton office?

I could see Ryan being demoted and being sent back to Scranton, but if this show wants to have any corporate cred at all, someone being fired for performance cannot get rehired at the same company - unless they have a good argument for extenuating circumstances or if they were separated with the explanation of downsizing or corporate restructuring. |

And what the hell would Ryan do at Scranton? This is the guy who couldn't make a single sale.

Don't forget: Michael adores Ryan. That's the only justification he'd need.

Speaking of BJ Novak, does it bother anyone else that he's in the opening credits? Yes, I know he's a writer, but so is Mindy Kaling and she's not
in the credits. yan's hardly one of the lead characters. I wouldn't care so much, but hell, if Ryan is going to be in the credits, can't you
throw some of the others in too?

Yeah I usually fast forward through the credits but I watched them this time for some reason and it really bothered me that he was there. Especially doing the
same ol' thing as always, they could at least update it and portray him as the douche he has become.

This argument about BJ in the credits is as old as the series. Isn't it up to the agents to negotiate billing and credits?
BJ played a slimy lawyer in Reign Over Me and maybe it's me, but it seems like he is only taking douche bag roles. |

I think they should replace B.J. with Ed Helms, since Andy's becoming a much more prominent character in the show than Ryan, and well, he is first in the
little credits when the show starts.

I'd be all for an updated credits. If B.J. is replaced by anyone though, it should be Angela Kinsey. She and Ed Helms seem like they belong. With the
opening always needing to be cut for time anyway, I doubt they'll make many changes (if any at all) for the rest of the series.

I think the Andy Bernard character is hilarious. They should put him in the credits definitely!

Did anybody else notice in the NBC promo, the scene with Michael puting a bag with a black strap around Toby's neck? There is a security guard/police
officer standing in the background. Is Toby fired and escorted off of the premises? And the scene with Michael and Amy Ryan riding in a ferris wheel?

Last night on Jay Leno Rainn Wilson was on and they showed a clip from tonight's episode. Not sure if I can post about it so I'll just use spoiler
tags.
