Tori’s Review: Beach Games »

A yabba don’t time

Friday, May 11th, 2007

Many of you mentioned in last night’s comments that your DVR didn’t record the tag (final scene) from ‘Beach Games.’ Mine didn’t either!

Luckily, I was able to record the first few minutes of Scrubs, which included the tag. Whew.

I guess the supersized episode end time befuddled our poor recording machines … thank goodness for good ol’ human intervention. :)

  1. Pretty funny people are making a big deal out of Jim and Karen not singing. The only time you see them is in the very beginning as Andy starts the song. They’re on camera for about 1/2 a second when the camera zooms in on Andy. There’s no way to tell from that that they didn’t join in.

  2. everyone’s commenting that john & rashida aren’t singing, but the camera only shows this for a bit & not after when everyones starts singing.. they could’ve been singing

  3. Totally the cast just having fun. Angela was having a good time, Ryan was grinning…it was adorable.

  5. haha I don’t care what it is…

    I LOVED the “Wilma!!” - it cracked me up! I didn’t catch Oscar raising his arm during gay old time - heh!

  6. I think it might just be an “homage” to John Candy from Harold ramis. Its right out of “Planes, Trains and Automobiles”. I know, I know, Ramis did not direct that film, but he was in “Stripes” with Candy and SCTV.

  7. Ok, the scene was definitely “planned” and suppose to be in “character,” but the whole Wilma thing was totally Steve and the rest of the cast just fell into it.
    However, gotta say, John/Jim and Rashida/Karen do *not* look happy at all, which might bring up the point that they’re separating themselves from everyone.

  8. For what it’s worth, I always program my DVR to overlap into Earl and Scrubs a few minutes just to be sure. ;)

    Where did the phrase episode ‘tag’ come from?

  9. Kevin definitely looks in character, though.

    My favorite part is in the second half of the song, when it seems like most are mumbling the lyrics very confidently.

    Being the nerd that I am, I looked up the lyrics, and they don’t sound like anything they’re singing there.

    “Let’s ride with the family down the street through the courtesy of Fred’s two feet.”

    OR

    “Some day maybe Fred will win the fight, then the cat will stay out for the night.”

  10. Ooooh. Poor Andy looks so happy here… makes the rest of the day seem so sad… I guess it could have been worse - at least he didn’t get pepper-sprayed again.

  11. Maybe it was just that everyone was out of character but no one let Steve in on the idea and he figured it out for himself…

    Probably not but that would be funny none the less.

  12. But honestly can you blame him, I mean sometime you just gotta get yo’ freak on. :)

  13. i dont think the wilma was scripted..everyone was cracking up after that. lol…

    21 | dwigt  Fri. May. 11, 2007 at 1:38pm

  14. on the comments about it being out of character…

    Michael Definitely was not out of character.

  15. Here’s my two cents on the tag.

    I think it was the characters having a sing-a-long on the way out to the beach. It probably occurred sometime after they sang “The Gambler.” You know, they finish the song, then someone (probably Michael) suggests they sing another, and they just kind of keep going along. I loved, loved, loved this tag! It was weird, and stupid, and funny, and even a little touching. Brilliant!

  16. I’m voting again on this thread for the tag being an extra “bonus” from the ride TO the beach. I don’t think I can express my reasons for believing this any more concisely that PhiladelphiaBranch (#13).

    My dvr didn’t pick up the tag, either. I ended up doing a manual recording of the first 5 minutes of Scrubs in order to catch it.

  17. I agree that this was definitely just the cast having fun and not part of the episode.

    It looks like they were just hanging out, look how everyone looks to be enjoying themselves (even Ryan). Thats probably the first sign that it was the cast, not the characters singing. :)

  18. that was amazing…my stupid VCR didn’t record the office last night so I’m just catching little bits and pieces of last nights episode until i can find a place to watch it

  19. Thanks Tanster! My DVR was totally confused as well.

    15 | katie  Fri. May. 11, 2007 at 1:14pm

  20. i agree it was a deleted scene-its light out, dwight is perfectly clean, pam is pre-speech pam and andy is dry & not angry at angela. but its wierd cuz jim is not singing. at all. when even the most unlikely ppl-ie. angela are.

    also notice. when they say “gay old time”. oscar raises his arm and ryan & pam look at him. good stuff.
