Pop Critics: The Office recap: “The Chairmodel”

I loved the Creed quote and the Wendy's bit, especially the end of the conversation:
"I'll have a frosty and a baked potato." "You have to come here to get them." "OK, when will they be ready? "They're ready."
Did anyone catch the date on the tombstone? I thought it read 2003, which means that not only is Michael mourning someone he never even knew, but that she also died five years ago.
Another classic! Michael and Dwight singing at the end was great.

Reliving the episode through your article made me laugh all over again. I LOVED that he got set up with the hot and spicy red head named Wendy. One of my favorite parts was when the nice landlady asked him if he was Michael and he quickly said no...Then the barista calls out for him to pick up his coffee, and the end up just staring at each other...Classic!

The barista part was friggin' funny...

Excellent sum up of all the truly classic parts, Mike.
As for the blind date, Michael wore a rose on his lapel to meet his mystery woman - so completely Hollywood of him. Yet still he denies it.

What about the five families of Scranton's office park... or Michael's homophobic comment to Oscar!

Okay one more - Andy's speech...
"I did this for the little guy. For Joe Six-Pack. The guy who wakes up every morning in his $400-a-month apartment. Wonders how he's gonna pay his mortgage that month. Wonders how he's gonna fill his car up with oil. Wonders how I'm gonna pay my kid's orphanage bills. That guy shouldn't have to wonder where he's going to park."

Michael's homophobic comment is already our new quote up in the top right :)

You gotta love Andy! Tracy and I were also cracking up with the fake out on the engagement. Their on screen chemistry is awesome.

'Oscar Meyer wiener lover' is an instant classic. I also loved 'Wendy, who's hot and juicy'. I totally nailed that one as soon as I heard it. Almost any line from Creed is a wtf moment.
As for it being creepy that Jim bought the engagement ring in week one. I read it more as he'd been in love with her forever and knew he couldn't let her get away. Very romantic. Jim and Pam are one of the best TV couples ever!
That's how I saw it too. Very romantic. He's been waiting for her for so long I'm surprised he didn't already have one. They've got great chemistry.

Gotta go with Scotty and Ana on the Jim question. Didn't really think it was creepy. I thought it was right in line with his character being in love with her since day one.

Yeah, it does go with his character, but even my wife was like..."He bought it that fast, and CARRIES it with him all the time?"
Still, I do love them :)

Insta-classic episode last night, although not as funny as the previous week. Still - hilarious.
The Wendy's phone call was priceless as was the guy calling for Michael to pick up his coffee with Pam's landlady sitting there.
I agree that any comment by Creed is just out there - that guy is trippy.
