My speculations:
252 | Steevi Tue. May. 6, 2008 at 6:19pmJim proposes to Pam, who gets scared b/c it’s too soon, and breaks up w/ him.
Toby comforts Pam after her break-up w/ Jim and tries to put the moves on her.
Ryan gets arrested and sent to rehab b/c of his drug problem, so Jim moves to NY to take his spot, since he is broken up w/ Pam. OR Jim finds out about Ryan’s drug habit and tries to help him out, but Ryan tries to have him fired instead.
Relationship/plotting between Jan/Ryan to get back at Jim/Corporate.
Jan gets sent to a psych ward. Michael takes time off to help her out after her release.
Karen moves back to Scranton to fill in for Michael.
Angela reveals she is pregnant w/ a kid (Dwight’s) and Andy is confused as to whose it is.
Hunter dies.
It’s annoying that The Office wasn’t really the focus of the cover, we were shunned and left to reside at the right upper part of it, soooo small. Argh. I had my friend buy it for me and was very much disappointed upon getting my copy and seeing the cover. I thought it was going to be like this ^ !
251 | Isabella Mon. Apr. 14, 2008 at 8:48pmNot the cover the inside photo.
250 | Fun_Run Sat. Apr. 12, 2008 at 6:24pmI must say Rainn Wilson looked reallllly good in those photos.
249 | Fun_Run Sat. Apr. 12, 2008 at 6:23pmI just got my copy today from Walmart, and I’m so disappointed. I walked past it once, because I was looking for them to be the main focus, but then I saw John’s head in the upper corner.
248 | StephanieC Fri. Apr. 11, 2008 at 2:17pmI guess Grey’s fans will be happy, but as an office fan, I’m bummed.
no kidding about disappointment! I was really looking forward to grabbing my copy today…and well I just decided to read it in the store instead of buying it b/c the cover was different. bleh
247 | Melissa Thu. Apr. 10, 2008 at 7:39pmI think the Office cover is only for subscribers. I just bought it, and the cover photo we see here of John, Jenna and Rainn is shrunken down to size and placed on the upper right hand of the cover. Katherine Heigl is indeed on the main cover. I just picked this up today. I’m a bit disappointed.
246 | GiGi Thu. Apr. 10, 2008 at 1:38pmHey I wanted to bring something up. Does anyone know if the cover we see above will be on sale at stores/ to the general public. The Ausiello link on tv guide right now mentions that the cover will be for subscribers…. and the TV Guide Magazine Home site shows Katherine Heigl on the cover with John, Jenna and Rainn cast off into the corner….. Basically I am asking if the office cover is only for subscribers
245 | Dex Wed. Apr. 9, 2008 at 9:27pmI agree that it’s not so ‘Office-y’ anymore since it’s moving outside and focusing on the characters lives outside the office, but c’mon - there’s really only so much you can do inside an office. I think adding the dimension of their outside lives is interesting and also an important piece for people to see another dimension of any character - because most people are different outside of their workplace. I like it and don’t mind the change.
244 | Amelia Wed. Apr. 9, 2008 at 6:32pmThat article was a bit of a disappointment. No “wowzer” spoilers for me! Just teasers, most likely.
243 | Pam Scherbatsky Wed. Apr. 9, 2008 at 1:04pmMy first hope would be that Jim & Pam get married and adopt Dwight. That’ll be the long shot plot idea. Maybe, Jim wants Pam to move in but Dwight is crashing at Jim’s place instead? Shoot, if I was Pam, living in the same space as Dwight would be a deal breaker.
242 | jo Wed. Apr. 9, 2008 at 12:11pmSo then where is John’s hand? ;) lol
241 | Alison Wed. Apr. 9, 2008 at 9:14amHAH. I knew it. IT IS RAINN’S HAND :P
240 | Joy Wed. Apr. 9, 2008 at 8:43amMaybe the inconvenience is Dwight has turned to Jim for comfort so Jim and Pam’s overnight becomes crowded by an unexpected guest. Or it could also be something with not getting time in the bathroom in the morning because of a roommate. I don’t know that it could be a pregnancy because I could imagine someone describing that as an inconvenience.
239 | kate Wed. Apr. 9, 2008 at 8:10amnumber 227 i LOVE your theory!!! the first one that is….:)
238 | VolunteerSheriff'sDeputy:) Wed. Apr. 9, 2008 at 7:52amoh man that picture on the inside is so great!! John looks amaaazing and Jenna is stunning. I cannot wait for the golf-outing episode. Of course, when I read that I immediately pictured the “Just Friends” and the “Sharp Schruters” haha.
TOMORROW!!!!
237 | Savannah Mae Wed. Apr. 9, 2008 at 6:43amI love that there’s a bear in the office. It just seems to fit, you know? And I’m so glad that Jenna confirmed the fingers. I was right!
236 | Cher is Bontoq Wed. Apr. 9, 2008 at 5:57amWow, Jenna looks amazing in that picture. But that raises the question: When does Jenna ever NOT look amazing?
235 | Weston Wed. Apr. 9, 2008 at 5:53amI just found out that I have to work on Thursday until 10PM! Our company has an annual smooze fest that happens to be on April 10. Say it ain’t so! Thank God for DVR.
I am so worried that everyone is building us up for an awesome JAM engagement, but the “curveball” will be they break up and Pam leaves Dunder Mifflin. I am so worried and cannot wait for Thursday. Thank you, Tanster, for all of the articles and scans! I love this site and appreciate all your time and hard work!
234 | IHeartJam Wed. Apr. 9, 2008 at 5:33amI love that Jenna is aware that a debate over whose hand that is is even going on. Glad to hear she cleared up the confusion for us.
