Chicago Tribune reviews ‘A Benihana Christmas’
Tuesday, December 12th, 2006 | 41 commentsOur friend Maureen Ryan at the Chicago Tribune has posted a hilarious review of this week’s episode, ‘A Benihana Christmas.’
SPOILER WARNING! Normally, I would include a few excerpts here, but Mo’s review is so chockful of delicious quotes from the episode, that I must abstain.
Just go read On Comet, on Cupid! On Dunder! On Mifflin! And to all a good night.
The OT quote randomizer is gonna be really happy this week … :)

I can’t wait for the episode tonight… only a few more hours! :) In the mean time, check this out
It’s an Office/Charlie Brown Christmas teaser for tonight’s ep.
Well I don’t see Andy (Ed Helms) anywhere, but that looks like that is probably Karen (Rashida Jones) sitting back at Angela’s desk.
And what??? No “JAM” tidbits??!! :(
Jan better make an appearance in this episode.
Sparklies Gallery now has a beautiful hi-res version of the photo. :)
I just used my camera phone to take a picture of the photograph featured in the article and now it’s my cell phone’s wallpaper. Hooray.
its funny how everyone is so secreative of their office romances (Dwight + Angela, and Jim + Karen), but Kelly is so open about her relationship with Ryan. This pic cracks me up, cause she’s all over him
I think it’s cute that Dwight sitting is practically as tall as Angela standing up.
Yeah, definitely looks like Karen.
The original info about Dwight going to Staples was on imdb.com
Well, it LOOKS like Karen’s way in the back at that desk…
Well, you guys certainly had some creative theories as to where Andy was hiding. Remind me never to challenge any of you to a game of “Where’s Waldo!” :)
Mo was pranking us about Andy being in the picture:
the Santa looks like an inflatable balloon, so I doubt its Andy.
But I see what BigTuna means about the reflection in the green picture…
High fives all around…
Sorry for double posting, but the comments to the article provide even more tidbits!
Sigh. I didn’t want to read it-I was supposed to remain spoiler-free for this ep. But somehow, the link was clicked and there was no going back. Although, the article did pretty much rock so I don’t mind.
i never saw the original post when it happened, but the first i heard about it was in this comment (spoilers - comment 348)
Cousin Mose, you are so right on! Karen knows her place!
I can’t wait until Thursday, if just the article made me laugh out loud I know that the actual episode is going to have me rolling on the floor!
I keep hearing that about Dwight and staples. Where did you guys see that? How did I miss that?
why is Karen sitting @ Angela’s desk?
Angela would freak if she saw Karen sitting there
