I also noticed the 30 rock similarity, plus another one…
Michael and Holly trying to find a place to meet halfway between them was like Jack and C.C. meeting halfway in the mining town.
Not quite as obvious, but definitely there. I wish the writers could come up with some more original material. Sigh.

Michelle, you are totally right about that! I hadn’t even thought of that similarity, but it’s definitely there.

Kimberly we were on the same wavelength when it came to this episode.
I have a couple of questions as well-
Sarah do you really believe that Jim and Pam will make it though this season without something angsty happening? I feel like we are being primed for something big to crop up before the whole wedding thing goes down.
Could you guys talk about the huge continuity problems that seem to me occuring more frequently? It is starting to get ridiculous. It was made clear in Goodbye Toby that Holly was an outside hire yet in Employee Transfer she was being transferred back to the Dunder-Mifflin Nashua office. Come on Office writeres that is just lazy in my opinion.

Wow I tottaly didn’t get the 30 Rock thing until you mentioned it which made me embarrassed as a major 30 Rock fan.

Hello ladies,
Just a quick question about a comment on your Theif of Joy podcast last week. You were discussing Jim’s brothers, and how he is quite a bit younger than them. Then one of you brought up “Larissa” who I always assumed was Jim’s mom when he listed her as his emergency contact. However, on the podcast you said Larissa was his sister. Just wondering if I missed this somewhere along the line, or maybe you just interpreted it differently than I.
I really enjoy your podcast, keep it up!
