Oh my god, last night's episode of The Office - the series finale - was so absolutely incredible I can't even put it into words but I am going to try my best. <<DEEP BREATH>> …Okay, here we go.
First of all the part where Jim and Pam decide to leave Scranton in order to experience Canada was a bold choice and I loved it. The argument they initially had was tense but also hilarious: Who knew Pam had that kind of a mouth on her? Really funny when she let Jim have it - and sexy.
Dwight. Dwight, Dwight, Dwight. DWIGHT! He will forever be one of my favorite characters in television history, and last night absolutely cemented his reputation as being so. Utterly. Hilarious. Let me ask you a question: Who writes this show? Just tell me who the writers are so I can give them big old bear hugs! They nailed it! I mean, Dwight taking that boombox and throwing it into the ocean? With the CD still in it? The very CD they needed to nail their final presentation to the big execs? Well, that's dramatic irony for you! TEARS OF LAUGHTER. Tears!
I could go on and one about each character: the gay one, the other guy who says one line an episode that's soooooo good always, The Hangover dude Ed Phelps, that hot red head (I love me the red heads, eh? Eh?? Slappa da bass, eh???? Haha sorry, Rashida! You'll find a man one day LOL)…There were moments on moments on moments of funny, moving stuff from every character. But nothing compares to the big moment. You know what I'm talking about…
Michael. Scott. MICHAEL FREAKIN' SCOTT! I can't believe they had him descend from the ceiling singing "Nessun Dorma" - so so so so funny I peed my pants! They had to bring back Michael Scott, and they did. A+ job right there, guys. You gave the people what they wanted. And when Michael pulled out that gun and pretended to kill himself in order to make Dwight feel better about losing the CD in the ocean and then Jim finally connected with Dwight only to discover that Michael's suicide was fake? And then the entire office cheered and hugged until BAM! they cut to black, end of series? And then they played "Don't Stop Believin'" over the end credits?? I laughed, I cried, it was better than Cats! It was better than….ANYTHING IN THE ENTIRE WORLD, EVER!
All in all, it was a great end to a great series. From season one, episode one, to final season, final episode, I had such a great time. Thank you to everyone involved with The Office for making life a bit brighter. Oh, and don't worry, Ryan: a lot of people have HPV ;)
