Really? I feel like this is just as bad, if not worse, than season 4.

Ryan can't leave.
He brings the douche bag-ness to the office that no one else can copy!!

Incorrect. His character has gotten ridiculous, and it's just so unbelievable that he would be rehired. It just makes no sense. I'm glad he's leaving.

are you kidding me man? I thought the fourth season is where the writers upp'd their game and really surprised me. From the cold open to the season close - gold imo. This season is a little "different" feeling to me, but so far I wouldn't describe any of the episodes as unfunny. - or any office ep to be honest.

I'm completely confused as to what they are going to do with Pam though. I thought the art degree would be her ticket out of the Office (at the end of the series)....so this is a surprise. did anyone else think this?

They clearly don't know where they are going with this show, but this season is definitely better than the last.

yeah, check the Entertainment Roundup!

Yeah, it sort've seems like there isn't much direction. Hopefully there is some with the explanation of Michael's outburst on Wallace.

okay i'm a girl... but no i am not kidding. the thing that i don't like about the fourth season is that it felt like a completely different show. the humor changed from mildly dry to something any 13 year old girl could laugh at, and the dry humor is what i like most about the show.

but i agree, i did think that pam would stay in new york, jim would follow and that would be the eventual demise of the show. at least it looks like the show will be around a little longer than i expected, so yay for that.

Well, while I agree it is unbelievable that he would be rehired, I still like his presence on the show. The random conversations he's been apart of (like last week when Jim asks Ryan about Kelly) have been funny and just suit his office persona. It's going to be weird now that BJ Novak wants to leave even though Ryan was rehired, so it'll be interesting to see how the writers explain his absence.

I thought he was just angry over Wallace sending Holly away.
