Hmm, I didn’t hear that, I’ll have to watch this episode again. Though, it does sound like David was just saying No, NOT(as in not fired) and then congratulations. But, I guess we’ll have to wait and see.

The way I understood it, when David says “No, NOT, congratulations” he’s saying that no, the branch wasn’t canned, and congratulations that they still had jobs.

Did David really say, No, NOT congratulations. If so, then this arc could be different than most of us thought.

Did anyone else notice that when Michael says “So we’re not fired?” David replied, “No, NOT congratulations…” and trails off? The first time I watched it all I heard was the congratulations part, but when I saw the producers cut I heard what he said and thought, “Wait, what? What is that all about?!” I can’t wait to see where all this goes!

Yes, Angela/Darryl FTW! I loved that they were being all cuddly at the end. I think it’s adorable. I hope they get together.

-Asturd, Hey! You noticed the subtle Darryl/Angela moments, too? That’s a relief, I thought I might be reading into it too much, but if more than one person noticed it, then who knows?

Loved the episode! Not offensive at all and full of laughs. I see a romance brewing between Angela and Darryl. And Andy was awesome at the end, won over Erin for sure! Can’t wait to see the new owners and what their characters are like. Good job keeping us guessing for this long amount of time how things are going to develop. Can’t wait!

Yeah, so I was a like a week late on this episode due to a business trip, but it was well worth the wait. So many quality moments and it ended on happy note. I love awkward Office, but this had a nice overall Christmas vibe to it. Also I had 12 years of Catholic school and I thought Michael’s petulant Jesus was hilarious! And “he heals leopards.”LOL. Also, for those who were upset about the lack of JAM, I figure they have been going light on JAM recently since Pam is due in February. Obviously, the few episodes leading up to and including the birth of JAM baby will be JAM heavy, and on the gooey “oh my gosh we’re having a baby” stuff too. I think it’s good they tried to give it a bit of break at the right time in the season.

Michael declaring Toby as the Antichrist was absolutely priceless. This, in addition to Phyllis’ threatening remark made to Jim, were among my favorite moments.

I was surprised to read that many viewers did not care for this episode. I personally found it to be refreshing, particularly as we now have a bit of an idea in regards to the future of Dunder Mifflin and a change in its corporate structure.

This episode was fantastic. I loved that everyone received appropriate gifts (except for maybe Erin) and there were so many great lines. I agree with those who say that we needed a break from Jam anyway…loving Arin. Am I allowed to call Andy and Erin that haha

Great having a funny Christmas episode. I also liked having some shock value added back into the show, in the form of clueless Michael playing Jesus. Lately the show had lost some of its edge for me, in having moments where my mouth literally falls open. Bravo Mindy Kaling!

I don’t know if you can see it in the actual episode, but the Christmas card from Benihana Christmas (where Michael superimposed his face over Carol’s husband’s) is on Erin’s desk. I thought that was a nice touch. :)

I too was completely offended at Michael portraying Jesus and am glad to see I wasn’t the only one. I’m afraid you lost another fan with this episode. I can respect that people have different beliefs but I don’t go around making fun of them. To me, Jesus Christ is someone I take very seriously and I hope that The Office writers will consider that portraying Him in any form can be offensive to Christians.

I loved it when Angela applauded Michael for dressing up as Jesus because I had started to applaud him a few seconds before when he said Jesus was the real meaning of Christmas(being a Christian I was thrilled . . . .until he said Jesus ruined the party, to which I complained a few moments before Anglea. . . .scary, Angela and I thinking alike, oooh, shudder. :)

Finally had time to watch the episode…worth the wait. What I need now are screen grabs. The Christmas episodes have a reputation for some sly set dressing. Who can forget the two blue ornaments hanging from Jim’s desk lamp from Christmas past?

I want to know why the Merry Christmas banner got tagged with “Santa hates tears.” Also, something looked odd about the stuffed Santa in Michael’s office. Did anyone else notice any visual gags?

On an unrelated note, for those of you unfamiliar with the origin of the old expression “loose as a goose,” let’s just say Erin’s car would be a mess.

To 133 “nv”.

HA! I thought the same thing for a bout a split second! So glad I’m not the only one with a pervy mind. Office, what have you done to me?!

I couldn’t even comment on my niece’s first band photo in which she’s holding her trumpet without thinking of a TWSS moment. My comment to her photo went as follows:
“Aw, such memories. There’s a photo of me just like this at age 11 except that I’m holding a french horn in my hand. (That’s what she said).”

I LOVED this episode! It’s so fun to have another great Christmas episode. Moroccan Christmas was okay, but I missed the whole Christmas vibe from previous seasons. So this was refreshing.

I loved Dwight’s line about having the same idea for Osama Bin Laden and how he’d piece together his gift to find himself in jail. I laughed out loud several times in this episode. It reminded me of seasons past, which is always a good thing.

So I just tonight got around to watching this episode online because my DVR didn’t record it on Thurs. night. Let me just say – WELL worth the wait!! Quite possibly my favorite Christmas episode of the series! Every character contributed amazingly. I think Erin showed some character development in this episode -she actually got frustrated and a bit weirded out by Andy’s gifts and confronted him about it. But the ending…very cute :) Loved Michael as Jesus, Pam’s ever growing belly, Michael’s salty attitude during present opening, him spilling the bad news (a Michael Scott classic), everyone’s moment of celebration in Michael’s office, Kelly’s reaction to her New Moon poster (laughed out loud – my mom is a Twihard), Dwight and his toy, Green Day karaoke – I loved how they used a random GreenDay song as background music for cute little moments and it just worked somehow….ahhh just everything! This is a great episode to leave off on until January :) I’d give this episode a solid A, but “I forgot there was a such thing as an A-plus-plus.” :)
