- Quotes
Michael Scott: [to Toby] This is an environment of welcoming, and you should just get the hell out of here.
- Alternate versionsThe episodes that originally aired on NBC and that appear on the DVDs are slightly different from the versions that air in syndication and on Netflix. For example, when episodes like "Stress Relief" and "Niagara" along with most of the other two parters originally aired, they aired as one extended episode. Additionally, several episodes have certain plot-lines or scenes that would later disappear, these are the versions that appear on the DVDs. On Netflix however, many of these scenes and plot-lines are missing from episodes and many extended episodes like the aforementioned ones were split into two parters. On the flip-side, there are even some scenes that were cut from the initial airings and appear as deleted scenes on the DVDs that appear on the Netflix versions.

Featured review
Honestly, I thought show as 'boring' even before I watched a single episode. Seriously, what interesting could happen in an office environment? I remember first scene I saw from this show. It was from an internet wallpaper with Michael Scott with a white board behind him saying "You miss 100% of the shots you don't take".
Then after years from that, I somehow started watching "The Office", I don't really remember why I did that. What I love most about this show is it's raw nature. The camera is kind of shaky yet still brings the best scenes...something that I had never seen before in a TV sitcom. It may seem less professional but adds real life, personal touch with the TV show and the characters in them.
Obviously, Michael Scott is one of my favourite character. Jim, Andy, Dwight, Pam, Erin, Kevin, Oscar, Angela, Creed and even the camera crew include in my favourite list.
What I learned from this show is that it's okay to be weird and different ,that you won't be welcomed as you wanted it to be ( remembering Michael Scott attempts ), that you can't wait and expect things to happen for you, that it's okay to be hated and feel hate to others....it's all dependent on time. People change, feelings change, situations change. All you got to do is be yourself and be true to your heart and everything will fall into it's place.
I love every minute I spent on this show <3
