This would be my rating (I pretty much agree with the general order of the above rating, but have some switch-arounds)…

8. The Surplus
I’m sorry, but The Surplus was way too cartoonish, sitcomy, and uncharacteristic - as though someone who had never seen the Office had decided to write an episode.
I thought “The Surplus” should have done much better than “Customer Survey.” I suppose nothing will top Weight Loss until the writers find a way to top the Jim/Pam proposal with a bigger Jim/Pam event, so I think this is really like a race for second place, but, come ON. “Surplus” was GREAT!
1. Business Ethics (Second to last? This was great!)
2. Crime Aid
3. Business Trip
4. Weight Loss
5. Customer Survey
6. Employee Transfer (I love Holly, and they dropped her off randomly)
7. Frame Toby (I’d rather have Holly and it was a bit too ridiculous at times)
8. Baby Shower (Jim’s white board explanation at the beginning was hilarious though)
what? frame toby was far superior to baby shower. and employee transfer i might add.
My rankings would be:
1. Customer Survey
2. Crime Aid
3. Frame Toby
4. Weight Loss
5. Baby Shower
6. Business Ethics
7. Business Trip
8. Employee Transfer
They’re all great though.
I agree with the rankings so far except for Employee Transfer. It should be about 4th. I have to say that this season is off to a good start, I hope they can keep it up!
I personally am really enjoying this season a lot. I don’t know why, but it feels really solid to me. Although I will defend Season 4 for it’s own qualities, I have to admit that it had a more erratic feel to it. This season imo, has a better flow and brings back a lot of positive and excited feelings I had during and for Season 3, if that makes any sense. I’m very confident that Season 5 will feel just right when it is over and will work very well as an ensemble piece.
IMO, the drama has been toned down compared to Season 4. In fact, in terms of quality..most of this season already beats last season as a whole.
This season has got me so mad!! Sure, there are tons of funny bits like Dwight and Andy’s interview, but so far it’s been too much drama and not enough hilarity! I don’t tune in to The Office to watch Jim and Pam struggle to keep their relationship going. I tune in to watch Jim prank Dwight. And to see CREED. I personally think that this season is far below Seasons 4 and 3, because it’s lost what makes it unique– its 100% spot on humor. Don’t get me wrong, I loved the engagement and when Pam met Jim’s brothers, but three love triangles for one show are too much for me. There should be more one liners, awkward looks, and talking heads. If you go back to Season 2, a quarter of each episode was made up of awkward silences. Now that time is filled up with Michael struggling with Jan and Holly, or Jim looking lonely.
The Office’s dynamic is just changing too much!
Hopefully the rating for tonight’s episode will go up.
I disagree with this order only because I think Crime Aid was one of the best episodes of the series. But I understand why Weight Loss is #1…that unbeatable Jam moment. Sigh.
hm…I didn’t like Weight Loss all that much. It was a good season opener (probably their best since The Dundies), but meh…here’s my list
1. Crime Aid
2. Business Ethics
3. Baby Shower
4. Weight Loss
5. Employee Transfer
Employee Transfer did nothing for me, except for making me depressed that Holly left
I think Baby Shower should be in last place. Business Ethics, Employee Transfer, and Crime Aid are definitely better than that. So far, I’m not completely into this season. Way too much focus on relationships. I also never, NEVER, see any scenes that don’t have to do directly with the plot of the episode. Which is depressing.
I absolutely loved Employee Transfer for so many reasons!
It makes me really happy when each cast member has a moment to shine :O)
The only thing that would have made it better was if Jim could have witnessed Dwight pranking Andy, first hand - Jim would have been soooo proud.
I wonder why the tallyheads have rated each episode lower than the last. =/ … I look at it as plot building…i hope there are more mindless antics coming up!! DON’T FORGET TO VOTE everybody! No matter who you vote for, get out there and do it!
