And after rewatch (a couple of times I hate to admit), I liked it. It was reminiscent of Office Olympics and had that S2 feel. Not having any Jam angst was a welcome relief. I think that's why I had to rewatch as first time through I was waiting for the other shoe to drop. Lots of good parallels to point out - Jam reuniting over having to talk Michael off the ledge (Jam needs to be brought back off the ledge). Michael admitting it's not that great with Jan at the moment (things are just so-so in Karenland). And a big shout out to Kevin for keeping the history of Jam front and center and for well, just being Kevin. Loved Dwight and agree that he was just great and in the groove.

Something occurred to me that may be way off base, but maybe not. It felt like they were starting to groom Ryan's character to become the new love interest, and I thought it may be in advance of JKras leaving the show (perish the thought). Is there anyone who can reassure me that despite his blossoming movie career I will be able to see Jim on my TV every week for the rest of my life?

Michael and Dwight's interaction on the rooftop was over the top and I had to pause the episode I was laughing so hard (I had to record it). I thought the episode had a lot of trademark moments that make the show fun to watch; ie. Pam/Jim, Michael/Dwight. I have to wonder what's going to happen once the payoff of Jim and Pam get together though. The watermellons bouncing off the trampoline into Stanley’s car was priceless.

Jim, Andy, and Dwight were cracking me up in the cold open ("Andy, Dwight says welcome back, and he could use a hug"). And am I the only one who thought the funniest part was Michael referring to Madge as Pudge, then later Padge? His inability to get her name right seriously made me cry because I was laughing so hard. Other highlights included, as everyone mentioned, Michael calling Dwight an "ignorant slut" (twice!), Creed biting into a raw potato, and every line of Darryl's...Craig Robinson is SO good.

Did you catch his little smile to the camera after he said "Will it be too warm in my long-sleeve tee?" Dawesome. As Karen shifts out (and I'm assuming she will) I hope they let her go with dignity. She's a good character and really likes Jim and several other of the officemates. I'd hate them to turn her into just a prop for the JAM storyline.

Andy/Drew: Do you want a drawbridge? Dwight: Unshun. Yes. That'd be good. Shunning resumed. So funny! While this wasn't one of my favorite episodes, it was nice to see everyone interacting like normal office people without the Pam and Jim drama. I loved the fact that Ryan kissed Kelly on the forehead after her Netflix explanation. I am beginning to like his character more. I've always loved Kelly. Now I don't want them to break up. And we got to see Michael run the gamut of emotions from annoying to vulnerable. I love that. "They found the castle." I don’t know if I’ll quote this correct, but I’ll give it a shot …

I did love seeing Andy (or Drew) back and I think that seeing the new Andy with Dwight will be even better than when they were competing with each other. It looks like he really wants to get into Dwight's good graces, which no one else really bothers to do, so I think we have some pretty hilarious stuff coming up between the two of them. I loved the little hints of JAM and I definitely agree we're going to see something big coming up, at least in the season finale. I'm sad that there are just a few more episodes to go, but if it means that JAM is on its way, that's fine with me!

There were lots of great moments. Kelly explaining netflix while Ryan and Jim looked at their watches was funny, but Pam winning because Kelly used the word awesome 12 times and Jim winning because Kelly listed 6 romantic comedies was hilarious. Creed finding the castle while peeing outside, even though he could have walked back into the building in 15 seconds was typical Creed. Best line of the night was "Wolves". I expected Dwight to say "flash floods". Michael calls Dwight an ignorant slut...twice. I can imagine that people in offices all over north america are using shun / unshun / reshun. Classic Dwight.
