TV- Season Premier- The Office

As far as season premiers go...this one was pretty good for The Office. The did not try to make it an hour long, which makes for terrible episodes of this sitcom. They did not try to overdo it with really way out there situations.

What they did right was take a normal office phenom...gossip... and Michael Scott it. That is when The Office works the best. With other sub-plots, Jim and Pam's secret pregnancy, Stanley's affair, the gossip that Michael takes to new levels of absurdity, is funny (Dwight upset that Michael suggested that he uses commercial fertilizer) and hurtful...much like office gossip can be.

The Office can miss badly every few episodes, but this season premiere was really funny, and I do look forward to the Jim and Pam saga.
