The Office has actually been pretty funny as of late but I was worried since it went through about a two season dry spell (where I do not think that Jim pulled a single gag on Dwight the whole time). By the way, how on Earth did Dwight keep is job (not to mention avoid jail time) when he nailed the doors shut, shot smoke into the rooms and started the fire alarm all in the name of conducting a fire drill?

Re: LOST Finale
"V" was starting to get lame and I was getting iffy on it.. but the last 10 minutes of the season finale made up for the entire slow mid season in the setup. Well worth catching it on Hulu

Re: LOST Finale
Stargate Universe is getting really good as well. It is definitely moving slower than the other Stargate series, but it also as a completely different style. Very Battlestar Galactica like.

You're right about the pranks! That was what I fell in the floor over...when Jim & Dwight were working on conflict resolution with Michael and Jim started recounting all the pranks. When he told about the phone prank...where he slowly put nickels in the handset until it was really heavy, and then, just removed them, causing Dwight to hit himself in the head with the phone....that's when I fell in the floor.

I just watched it online...that is how I've watched all six seasons.
The ending was good...although there are still so many unanswered questions. It is sad that it's over, regardless of how it all ended. The show had a way of making you become emotionally invested in the characters. You wanted them all to find happiness...which they did, just not how I expected.
I teared up a little at the end too...especially the very last part, when Vincent came running through the bamboo forest and lay down next to (I won't say the character's name in case someone hasn't watched the finale yet) as he lay dying, as if to say "I am going to stay here with you so you won't have to die alone."

So, you are still following UPC standards by not watching something on a tv set but watching it on a computer?

Re: LOST Finale
I found the REAL Lost finale much better....SURVIVOR 20.
Here's what I think happened ...the writer's got sooooo involved in the twists, turns and cliffhangers they developed over six seasons that there was no way they could tie up ALL the loose ends soooo....they used their own hatch, escape hatch that is, and made death and an unexplained afterlife the climatic ending. WOW ! This ending could work for any tv show. It made all the components of the story, the island, the numbers, the statue, the ship, the hatch, Dharma Initiative, etc...etc... pointless. It was the easy, and sentimental, way out and very, very trite.
Yuck.

just a little poke at the anti-tv but pro-computer crowd.
nothing personal.
I used to be a Baptist.
We weren't allowed to go to movies but we could watch movies on tv.
To me that was always an inconsistency.
