‘The Return’ producer’s cut

Thursday, January 18th, 2007 | 150 comments

According to the NBC home page, a producer’s cut of ‘The Return’ will be available online after the episode airs on TV tonight. (I’m assuming that means after the West Coast airing.)

Watch the producer’s cut here.

Note: to view from outside the U.S., try following the steps here and here.

    This has to be one of my Favorite websites!! There are so many little things that crack me up!!! Everytime I go back and watch it I find something new.

    By the way if there is anyone who does not have Tivo, you have to get it. I have almost all season three so far on Tivo, it is great!!!!

    Go Jam!

    I followed the steps to view the Producer’s Cut without any luck. Can someone at least please give me some kind of an idea of what happened? Dying to know!!!!

    I like how the religious Angela made mention of her “denying” Dwight as Peter did Jesus. Brilliant writing.

    I guess you’re right, GoodSam. My field of vision is normally just what we see in that main area, but I forget that there’s supposed to be other office space behind the break room. I tried to figure it out once when the Quicktime3D tour of the office was at NBC (it’s probably still there). But it wouldn’t be any fun without Dwight sitting back at his old desk. So I’m glad Andy blew up and had to leave!


  5. 146. GoodSamaritan  

    well, he could sit in the desk beside kelly, the one toby moved away from because of his ‘allergies’ and where jim was temporarily stationed for awhile. also, you have to remember that the ex-con, the fat guy, and the nursing mother who moved from the other branch also sat somewhere before they left, so there must be some extra desks. allan, my friend, i beleive there is more to the office space than what we see on screen. in the limited 20 minutes, the producers are wise to focus on the desks being occupied by the characters and not the empty desks ;).

    When Andy arrived in Scranton, he took Oscar’s desk. When Oscar returned (in this episode), Andy moved to Dwight’s desk. Now that Dwight’s back, Andy really had to go or else where would he sit?! If I hadn’t seen the producer’s cut I would have wondered about that. But of course we know that Andy’s gone for 10 weeks (or 5, if his plan works), so that’s taken care of. Well, if he does come back, maybe he’d take Karen’s desk because she might throw in the towel by then and decide to go work somewhere else. I hear there’s a position open at Staples. Sorry, I don’t really want Karen to leave. But she’s probably pretty discouraged right now. Just had to bring this up about desk geography because I haven’t seen the point raised in other comments here…

    THANK YOU! i couldn’t use tor, because i have no idea what a “proxy” is or how i connect to it.


  8. 143. Ric  

    Well, I’m glad I could help some people. I’d have some trouble with tor in the past and wandering around the net I’ve found UltraSurf and sticked with it. Got very useful when Brazilian government blocked YouTube (sorry about the rant).

    Going into the topic, the “supersized” episode impressed me because, sadly, a lot of good stuff was cut of the final version, and mainly Oscar’s scenes which were supposed to be the main plot. Also I cracked up with Michael’s Sebring covered with snow.

    ps: Nadia, i’ve never seen this connection problem. I’m behind a router too but somehow it works. Maybe your firewall or router is blocking the port it needs to get connected. Also you can try to go under “Option”, “Proxy Settings” and try to use other options like “Directly use UltraSurf” or manually input the proxy address if possible.


  9. 142. Nadia  

    Okay, I’m trying Ultrasurf - and I can’t seem to get a connection. Ultrasurf is telling me to check my internet and proxy settings. I’m on a router. What should I be doing?


  10. 141. Matt  

    We just went ahead and bought it on itunes.


  11. 140. GoodSamaritan  

    wow, ric, ultrasurf works much faster than tor and requires much less setup/configuration. thank a mil.

    THANKS RIC!!!


  13. 138. Jenny  

    RIC!! THANK YOU!! ultrasurf works perfectly!! I was never able to make Tor work (maybe it was just me?!) - but ultrasurf is awesome. A million thanks from Canada!! :)

    Chelsea (re: comment #131)

    It wasn’t so obvious to me (that’s why I asked the question because I thought I might have missed something).

    At my old employer, all reference requests had to go HR. On the Office, that would be Toby, and we all know that Toby and Michael aren’t real “chatty”. Not saying it’s that way everywhere, but that’s my experience and why that wasn’t the obvious answer for me.

    Bottom line, I guess, is that we weren’t given a real answer to the question. It could be just as obvious to someone else that Angela told Michael about Dwight working at Staples. We can only make assumptions and either one is just as likely to be correct, IMO.


  15. 136. HinduHalloween  

    Maybe we should have a “Internet Complaints” page so frustrated folks can vent there instead of all through discussions on “The Office”?


  16. 135. the_bohemian  

    OMG! Thank you Ric!! I have tried all the suggestions but none of them worked… BUT Ric’s suggestion worked!


  17. 134. LittleTuna  

    Oh. And Creed too. “Draw me a map, mamma.”


  18. 133. LittleTuna  

    Why? Why did they cut the plot with Michael’s car? His snow mobile? That was priceless!

    Another reason why this show needs to be an hour long.

    NBC, come on!!


  19. 132. Ric  

    Maybe i’m too late, but to bypass NBC’s control I use a program named UltraSurf (avaliable at http://www.ultrareach.com). It masks your ip without using a proxy at all, so you keep your connection speed. Also it doesn’t need to install, just download, unzip and run, it will connect and open internet Explorer (sadly it only works with it). Then log on NBC and have fun.


  20. 131. not Karen  

    Loved Kelly’s interaction with Oscar. And Angela actually telling Pam about her and Dwight. Oh and Phyllis shaking her maraccas!!!

    So Andy’s now in Anger Management classes.

    And then there was one.
