I'm surprised that Pam didn't point out the anti-gravity chamber, where you go into a room, drink a potion and feel lighter, was the soda pop room from

Not a classic finale but a strong one. I love all their misdirection. The way they rushed Ryan's departure and sent Pam to NY for the summer, I was sure
Jim would get Ryan's job.

I wish they'd stop having Jim harass Dwight in the most childish ways. The phone thing was already played out and tiring. Dwight's reactions are meant
to make him look as dumb as Michael.
I thought the funniest part was when Kevin and Holly were at the vending machine and Holly said "this is a button" and the actor who plays Kevin tries not to laugh. I'm going to miss Michael's hatred of Toby. If Pam goes to NY for art, and Ryan is fired, will Jim take the job in NY if asked? |

It wouldn't be the same show if Jim didn't keep pranking Dwight. That would be like suddenly turning Michael into a genius like Flowers for Algernon.
Jim/Tim's practical jokes on Dwight/Gareth is an Office staple. |

The practical jokes are alright if they're funny, but Dwight trying to convince Pam that she wasn't talking to him was downright stupid.
Also, I thought PB&J were taking it easy on Dwight because they felt bad for his situation with Angela. |

Amy Ryan was great, I loved her character. In fact I appreciated her more when she wasn't doing the yoda stuff. Keven being handicapped was great, probably
one of my favorite episodes so far. Everyone was at their best and the script was great as well.

Any geek - any person with the basic knowledge to operation a cell phone - could figure out how to stop the prank. But they do this with Dwight all the time. I still can't get over the Ben Franklin incident. |

The retard bit with Kevin was brilliant since they didn't even have to alter his character in the slightest way.ECKS This was by far the best part of the episode b/c it was classic Kevin but classic Kevin can easily pass as a mentally challenged adult and Holly thinking he was provided some funny moments. The rest of the episode was a big bad Meh. It's entertaining but I like the characters but in terms of a comedy, it really fell flat. I feel like it's getting a bit too dramatic for my taste.. Loved seeing Jan since I heart her and Creed not knowing what his job was was great. Also love how everyone is constantly playing solitaire on their computers. |

The cold opening and the "Kevin is retarded" bit were classic Office, but the rest of the episode was just dog shit. This season was just absolutely
atrocious. It's no longer a clever, intelligent comedy, it's turned into an over-the-top soap opera.

the Toby exit interview was great. Watching Michael try to read his obnoxious questions in the nicest way possible was great. The whole gift of the rock and
Michael trying to blame the staff only to be burned by Dwight's honesty was classic. The whole thing was topped off by Pam forcing Michael to give Toby
his watch as the real gift rather than lose face with the new HR woman. This was a very underrated yet greatly written and acted scene.

I am nit picky. One thing that bothered me. Michael set his alarm on his watch. Then Toby reset the time, yet it still went off at EST.
Otherwise good show, I want more Angela and Phylis fighting. |

I really enjoy Phyllis' constribution (altho the "calling for an anti gravity machine" segment was cringeworthy) especially when she blitheley
knocked the documents off Angela's desk.
