At last, the long-awaited season premiere of The Office. Yes, I’m happy. The proposal was great. Thanks to my parents’ new DVR, I got to watch it several times. However, I’m not completely appeased–rumor has it that The Office is running for at least three more seasons, and I don’t think they can stretch a happily-ever-after story with Jim and Pam for that long. I’m definitely expecting some major glitches to come their way, with the most obvious possibility coming from the new male friend that Pam is making in NYC. I’m not expecting wedding bells to follow very quickly or easily.

Not that I actually care about any of the other plot developments, but here are my thoughts-

Regarding the Michael-Jan-Holly triangle, it seems kind of sad. The whole plot of Jan being pregnant in the first place is weird to me…but Michael assuming the role of father to the baby is pretty funny, even as he pursues a relationship with Holly.

Regarding the Dwight-Angela-Andy triangle- does anyone think for a minute that she even likes Andy? How much longer is she going to go along with her engagement? She seems to have forgiven Dwight for the Sprinkles-killing incident, so I don’t know what the problem is.  Oh, I wondered for a while if the reason that the Office was not losing weight was because Angela was pregnant and putting on pounds, but nothing seems to have come of that..at least, not yet…

Stephen wants to know what Ryan’s angle is now that he is back in the office. Obviously, neither one of us is buying his repentance. Good for Kelly for blowing him off.

I’m looking forward to next week. Yay!
