    I have to be honest. This whole episode was built on magazine model... And that's just seems to me as lack of ideas. They just came with this stupid idea and created whole episode about it. Meh.

    The weakest link

    The weakest episode in season 4 The start of Andy taking up screen time from the funnier characters in the show

    I'm so glad it's back!!!

    The chair model episode reminded us of what we have been missing for the past 4 months. Dinner Party wasn't bad, but it wasn't the like the others and only contained about half the cast. I think that the writers picked up on this which is why they incorporated a great little bit with Andy and Kevin. Ed Helms is excellent in this episode and the old Michael appears as dumb as ever.

    We also get a glimpse of the future of Pam and Jim, pretty juicy stuff. I hope they are able to keep making their relationship funny.

    10 out of 10, Keep em comin.

    P.S.- The Dance by Andy had me laughing for about 15 minutes.

    Great episode!

    Everything *except Andy* is great about this episode I love Dwight and Michal's relationship, Steve and Rainn are both very good actors and play their roles perfectly, with perfect chemistry so whats not to love!... And not to be lazy or anything but the exact same thing about about Jim and Pam! (John and Jenna )

    Underrated episode

    The relationship between Michael and Dwight is just great. Jim and Pam, also. It's just an episode full of heart. Kevin's "it's just nice to win one" is heartbreaking. God, I love this show!!

    • Trivia
      The telephone number of W.B. Jones Heating and Air, one of the "Five Families" mentioned by Kevin, is (800) 984-3672. If you had called the number, you would get a prerecorded message encouraging you to keep your thermostat set at 67 degrees in the wintertime and 76 degrees in the summer to stay comfortable and decrease your carbon footprint. The message concluded with an invitation to wait for the next available customer service representative, but disconnected after about 30 seconds of elevator music. The number no longer works.
    • Goofs
      When Dwight goes into Michael's office to console him, he is not wearing a jacket, but shortly thereafter he is shown in the office wearing his jacket.
    • Quotes

      Michael Scott: [discussing Phyllis' friend Sandy] Could we share a rowboat? Could... could a rowboat support her?

      Phyllis Lapin: ...What are you asking?

      Michael Scott: I think I'm being very clear what I'm asking. Would an average-sized rowboat support her without capsizing?

      Michael Scott: [long pause] It bothers me that you're not answering the question.

      Phyllis Lapin: No, all right? No, she can't fit in a rowboat.

      Michael Scott: Dammit, I knew it. I knew it, Phyllis! Okay...
