Goodbye, The Office
Blog Note: It’s been
hard tracking down a copy of The Electric Horseman since it’s no longer available on Netflix Instant. The Pollack
Retrospective will return shortly once I’ve corralled a copy of the film and
can continue on. For the three of you reading it, I haven’t given up on it.
When NBC decided to finally pull the plug on The Office and make this upcoming
season its final one, I knew I wanted to do some kind of retrospective on the
show. However – as you can no doubt tell with all of these blog “projects” I “do”
– I don’t really have the time to go through and do a retrospective proper, so
I figure I would fall back on the simple list. Since there are a lot of great
episodes of The Office, I figured a
top 50 would suffice. So, when the new (and final) season starts up on
September 20, I will post an episode per week until the series’ final episode.
Look for selections 50-25 to be grouped into one post and then I’ll post each
subsequent selection in conjunction with the airdate of the new episodes from the
final season. More thoughts on the series
after the jump…
