[...] For me, it isn’t the word as such - it doesn’t really mean anything at all - that I like. Rather, the word is, as the Althusserians say, so overdetermined that it can only be funny regardless of context, but especially when it is absent (c.f., the episode of The Office where Michael says that he likes to watch “Queer as F—“). A song with the word “fuck” in it can only refer to the fact of its imminent censorship; it can only be used self-consciously and ironically. [...]

Just wanted to just on here. I'm new to the whole thing. I can't wait to become a featured fan here....

Did anybody else get a good look at Kelly as they were gearing up toward the kiss? HEE-LARIOUS! She was leaning forward, grinning/leering excitedly, like she was seeing the best thing ever.

Great premiere-very funny,excellent writing as always.I am concerned though about the future of JAM (or lack of it).Roy definitely appeared more nice than he ever did before.I feel he and Pam will be back together. John Krasinski and Jenna Fischer have such a wonderful screen chemistry,it really is a joy to watch.I hope we see more of it,I'm worried though.As always,the writers make these stories very true to life,so I don't know about JAM having a future. Great comic relief on this episode though,from the "gaydar detector", to Creed's hilarious line(you know the one),to Michael and Oscar's big kiss,Jim placing the calculator in jello,etc,etc...

Scranford is my new favorite word, even better than Jam and Ram...

"Gay Witch Hunt" has to be one of the funniest episodes yet of the Office. When Michael kisses Oscar and they start groaning awkwardly, I laugh out loud every time I watch it. And I've watched it over 10 times. Best show on television, hands down.

Got to meet Jenna Fischer and John Krasinski and Ken Kwamis in Howard Rosenberg's class at USC last night. Great people, they were so nice to all of us crazy student fans that just wanted to talk about Jim and Pam. Couldn't get a picture with them, but I can tell you than neither Jenna nor John plan on writing an episode on their own any time soon.

This is probably completely not important, but it's kind of amusing that Pam said she called off her June 10th wedding three days before, which would be the day before Jim would have left for Australia. That might be a little too movie melodramatic though.

I don't think it was completely out of character for Toby to tell Michael about Oscar being gay. "Casino Night" left an impression that Toby is going to go gunning for Michael.

I'm paraphrasing: "It felt good to take money from Michael. I'm going to chase that feeling."

I think he told Michael about Oscar because he knew Michael would make a complete mess of it. I think Toby is getting more ruthless. Has he reached his breaking point? Toby is one of my favorites. And Paul, the actor who plays him is freakin' hilarious. I read his blog. I peed a little.

As for Jim just leaving after the kiss? I think it makes sense. Like most people I've been the victim of unrequited love. It gets to the point where you get tired of torturing yourself. He took a huge risk and gave it his best shot. He left himself an out and he took it. I don't think he knows that Pam did not go through with the wedding. What will happen when he finds out? (giddy squeal)
