    Why?

    If I wanted to watch a sum of clips for a bunch of laughs I'd just watch a YouTube edit of it that has better. This is just lazy I thought it was funny when he asks him the first question and it showed some flashbacks... that would have been fine but the movie goes back into the plot and then goes back yet again in the flashbacks and then vice versa rinse wash repeat. We don't need to rewatch what we already know. This is probably the worst episode I've ever seen in the office of all the episodes.

    An amazing episode

    What people lose sight of is that The Office was made before Netflix streaming was invented, so episodes like these were a great opportunity for viewers at that time to look back and appreciate the series. People who binge-watch it in one week over Netflix don't get it.

    Filler

    It's apparent that this episode didn't have much of a budget. The whole episode is a sequence of flashbacks to previous episodes with about 1% of new content, with even the new content not being that great. What was going on with Michael's wig? It was brown!

    You can safely skip this episode.

    The Best of...

    Nothing new to see here. But if you need a reminder why you fell in love with this show it'll be a breath of fresh air to enjoy some laughs on your favourite The Office moments so far. But if you binged the show hard up until this point, like I did, those scenes would have not faded out enough so you can enjoy them yet again.

    Worst episode of this season and maybe of this entire TV series? Like, what's the point to fill 50 or 60% this episode time with old clips, that just seems like lazy writing, sorry.

    • Trivia
      During the flashbacks of past episodes, a clip of the hot dog eating contest from Beach Games (2007) is shown. Michael suggests dipping the hot dogs in the water "so it will slide down your gullet more easily", to which a small majority of the group replies "that's what she said." This clip was not a part of the original episode, but an outtake.
    • Goofs
      When Micheal is talking to the investment banker in his office, he pretends to take a call on his cellphone. When it cuts back to Michael, he's holding his office phone, and then it switches back to his cell phone when it cuts to him again.
    • Quotes

      Eric Ward: What about non-safety issues in terms of liability? Sexual harassment, anything like that?

      Toby Flenderson: Oh, I don't know...

      Eric Ward: You don't know?

      Toby Flenderson: I don't know.

      Eric Ward: You're the head of human resources.

      Toby Flenderson: I don't know, no.
