Watching "The Office," I’ve wondered all season about yuppie scum Ryan, played by writer B.J. Novak. With his promotion, he seemed to become an even bigger D.B. than usual. And he just wasn’t funny. This wasn’t office satire via a mock documentary, this was just a documentary. he was the only one not to get any laughs from the storyline about his Dunder Mifflin Infinity web site. And his picking on Jim - blatant retaliation for Jim getting Pam and just being an all-around better dude - was annoying, not amusing. So how wild was it last night when they busted him for fraud and dragged him off the show? I don’t know if Novak is coming back at all, or if we’ll next see him in an orange jumpsuit, or what. But it was a hoot.

So was the whole episode, and I was not at all amused by this […]

I never like to share my thoughts of THE OFFICE until I watch the episode at least twice. I’m particularly happy that I didn’t take to the keyboard immediately after I watched last night’s season finale, because what I would have said then as opposed to what I’m saying now would have been completely […]

Watching the "My Name Is Earl" or "The Office" season finales on NBC tonight? Executive producer Bobby Bowman and star Nadine Velazquez aka Catalina will be blogging "Earl" here at 9 for half an hour or so. Paul Lieberstein aka Toby (right), who’s at the center of tonight’s "The Office," will be blogging here at 10. You can go to each site ahead of time to leave questions.
Bet you thought I was going to use a picture of Catalina, didn’t you?

Fellow fans of THE OFFICE.  It pains me in every way possible to say this, but I’m not going to be watching tonight’s season finale live.  I know, I know, but it can’t be helped.  While all of you on the East Coast are watching the episode I’ll be at the Fox Upfront party here […]

Presumptive Republican Presidential nominee, John McCain, made a bold announcement last week when during an interview on THE DAILY SHOW he announced that Dwight Schrute would be his running mate on the ticket come November. It was an obvious choice and one, frankly, we all saw coming. But what Senator McCain didn’t anticipate […]

It’s going to be a bit before I’m able to upload my pictures from last night’s NBC Upfront party, but I thought I would share a few of the highlights and set the scene.
Because NBC already had revealed their 2008-09 primetime schedule a few weeks ago, they didn’t have their traditional Upfront presentation.  This year […]

The other networks are announcing their falls schedules this week. NBC shot their wad a few weeks ago, but they’re still trying to get their share of press today with the Jimmy Fallon announcement and the Ryan Seacrest announcement. They’re also hoping to whet our appetites for new shows like "My Own Worst Enemy" (with Christian Slater as a suburban dad/superspy); a stateside remake of the Aussie sitcom "Kath & Kim" (with Molly Shannon); the island adventure series "Crusoe"; and the "Knight Rider" remake (even though this spring’s pilot movie sucked the big one). And of course "Friday Night Lights" will be back, after airing first on DirecTV, but we told you that back in march.
And there’s also this from NBC Digital Entertainment: a second season of webisodes on NBC.com for fans of "The Office," featuring current cast members, and new webisodes for "Heroes," both coming this summer.
"The Office" […]
