Truly one of best episodes in Season 6, this episode really shows the audience why fans like me love this show. I laughed throughout the entire episode, every character played their part well and I was very satisfied by the end of this.

It was something that I could watch and enjoy seeing but for real I want and expect more. It was okay, don't get me wrong, but I've seen better episodes.

Up there with my all time favourite episodes of The Office in terms of making me laugh

Great episode. Astute depiction of a man who refuses to be manipulated by others who want to take advantage of his good nature to make social points at his expense. Once Michael learns that he is on a date, he takes decisive action to discredit Pam and Jim, who did not inform Michael of their plan to hook him up with one of Pam's girl friends. This takes place at an office Happy Hour organized by one of the employees who wants to use the event to try to establish a gay connection with another employee. Office politics run rampant as everyone is using a social event to promote their personal, sand selfish, goals. All except Michael. This episode depicts the characters of the Office at their most ridiculous, except for Michael, whose acting out is a form of passive -aggressive behavior that completely thwart Pam and Jim's attempt to use Michael to score points at Michael's expense.. Instead of being open and honest with Michael, they give Michael cause to act out. In this respect, Pam and Jim totally misjudged Michael. Michael does not need their help to meet women nor did he ask for their help. Sadly, although a spoof, this episode, and the series in general, provide an accurate depiction of the more negative and reprehensible aspects of human nature.

I'm so happy wwowwiq I just wowwwiwu Wueu I oI do it in the west side and I'm not sure why you are not on my side but you I can do it in the west side of your life and I love you so much I miss you so much much I hope.

I've watched up to the end of series 7 over lockdown and this is by far the worst episode, the next one isn't great either, it seems they've made Erin and kevin into the standard American cartoon actors, where they're almost parodies of people. I knew Erin was kooky but over this and next episode any like or respect or interest in her completely dies, I assume they chose to as she's with the awful Ed helms and he needs someone on his level. Real shame I liked her, she was daft but then they ruined her.

Kevin is obviously an established character and he was always portrayed as bit out there or a bit slow, but ever since the episode where Holly was tricked into the joke that he's special needs they've almost just left him in that state, he used to crack jokes and say dumb stuff but not every word, he's not just an unbearable creepy looking guy screaming a Pam to get her to leak? That's not funny and the humours started drifting from bit out there to down right stupid. Really can't stand the guy anymore, his mannerisms voice and tone just makes me feel his mocking a stereotype and he's just dead as a character now.

But the real reason is what I call Joey stupid, in friends joey could get an acting role and remember a script but get confused over something a toddler would get, just forced stupid for the sake of it. They did this with Michael here, I felt a few too many times they took him out of realism to where no real company would keep him on but here it's just ridiculous, with a girl obviously going well then Jim tells him it's a date and the next few minutes just aren't funny or clever just a lot of bad character and character work that ruined this show for me for a while, even Pam lost her charm and Jim to, making her a mom who stands up for herself and Jim as a stressed but confident boss undid a bit of what I loved of them two. I also thought they are the most natural couple with excellent chemistry I've seen in a show and was disappointed how subpar the wedding was. Didn't do them any favours.

My only other three hates are Toby i liked the distant but efficient character but he's like a stupid zombie and just don't get it.

I knew he wrote some but that BJ Novak is damn awful, he isn't funny, really bad actor just the character with the least everything, fine write it but was so disappointed when they kept bringing him back in, Kelly deserved way better, he was a bad character and an awful actor.

Lastly Ed helms was a terrible cast, I know rashida didn't add much and think her dads connections gets her most roles but how Ed helms has had so many roles is beyond me, the guy is awful, he is the same in every film or show, can't act, has no range, isn't funny whatsoever, he can't act like a normal person, the whole way he speaks to just everything about him is ridiculous. I get trying to make a nice guy loser but he's not it. He is possibly the worst actor out there in comedy. Stole a living. Face you'd love to smack, voice that's awful, the clothes, just everything stunk
