(S05E26) The one thing that become evident during the course of the season, and within this episode, is how much things have changed, evolved, ever since the show first started. Back then, Michael was just somewhat of an imbecile, or would easily be thought as one. He was irresponsible and just looking to be “the best boss ever,” loved and admired by his employee best friends.
Today, he is still Michael Scott of course, but he has evolved, and over time we’ve grown to know him better and to see what was hiding behind this clown’s mask. Which is why, during this episode, when Michael started to explain his “plan” and we knew it couldn’t possibly go right, when it was clear chances were he would make a fool of himself, possibly humiliate himself, and most definitely get hurt, we really didn’t want that to happen.

(S05E25) The Michael Scott Paper Company plot line was certainly one of the best thing that ever happened to the show, and it was so good that I have to admit having even completely forgotten about other ongoing plots, even major ones such as the fact that Pam & Jim are engaged and, so, have to get married at some point. Because it was so good, it’s also possible it made me have higher expectations when I tune in for this show.
Maybe it has to do with the way I felt about this episode, or maybe that’s just really how things were. After the tension of last week and an entire arc all about work, getting clients and doing business, now things were back to normal, which when it comes to Michael means that work has not to be involved, work is boring, things should be fun instead!

(S05E24) Last week Michael (alongside Pam and Ryan) go back to his old Dunder Mifflin, as if the whole Michel Scott Paper Company thing never happened. Except that, of course, he’s still Michael and with that it was obvious that his return wouldn’t be just simple, or low key. He was going to make a show out of it, of course, and he might even want to push things too far, because that is the Michael Scott way after all.
One thing I realized, though, watching this episode, is that I thought the whole MSPC was pure genius, it was the best thing that ever happened to the show, I loved it, and I was of course behind Michael, Pam & Ryan the whole time. That is, after all, how most of those events have been shown to us, how we’ve seen things: through the eyes of the new and short-lived company Michael created.

(S05E23) I feel somewhat disappointed with this episode. Not the episode itself, really, because I thought it was absolutely hilarious and awesome in more ways than I could describe, I loved every single second of it, and yet I couldn’t help but feel, as this was all happening, that maybe I didn’t really want to see this. Or, more precisely, I didn’t want to see it so soon.
If you take this episode, exactly as it is because, again, it was pretty much perfect, and you put it some say a few weeks later down the road, it could probably work just as well. But, had they done that meant that, as a result, it would have given us a few more episodes as we’ve been getting lately before we get to this point, and that’s what I was hoping for, more of it.

(S05E22) This week we found a few things on the show, there was a little let down, some disappointment (or incomprehension) and a whole lot of awesome. Naturally, the later was the most important thing of all, and made the episode such a delightful moment in the end. And that is why I think I won’t really talk about that odd B-plot we had this week, which really didn’t work.
Not only that, but it seemed quite inappropriate to me. What I mean by this, because we all known inappropriate behaviors have been happening for a long time, is that given his current situation, it seemed incredibly odd (to me) that Jim would act the way he did, not to mention it wasn’t really as good as any of the things he usually does.
