from usatoday.com
Quote: What viewers can expect this spring: Michael's interest in a woman modeling in an office supply catalog; Michael and Dwight clubbing with hotshot Ryan (B.J. Novak), a supervisor who was once a subordinate; and Ryan's problems with sexual predators accessing the company's website. "The character of Ryan is getting a little out of control," Daniels says.
Somebody will be leaving Dunder-Mifflin, too. "It's kind of a shocker," Fischer says. "It's not me and it's not Steve. I can say that."
Fischer, who says the six post-strike scripts rank with the show's best, says the dinner party provides an interesting glimpse into the Jim-Pam relationship outside the office. "That's kind of cool for fans of Jim and Pam," whose numbers are substantial.
In a later episode, viewers will learn one of Pam's quirks that comes out at the office after she has spent the night at Jim's place. "Michael and everybody have a good time with that, teasing her about it."
Daniels won't say much about the Office spinoff to premiere after the 2009 Super Bowl, other than that none of the main characters will leave the show for it. Fischer says she found out about it at work: "I was sitting at Pam's desk in the background of a scene, and I read it on the Internet."

From last night's Dinner Party GREAT EPISODE!!!
Jim Halpert: Michael and Jan seem to be playing their own separate game, and it's called, "let's see how uncomfortable we can make our guests." And they're both winning. So I am going to make a run for it.
Jim Halpert: So, how do you guys know each other?
Dwight's Babysitter: I was his babysitter.
Pam Beesly: And now you guys are, dating?
Dwight Schrute: Purely carnal. That's all you need to know.

That was one of the best I've seen so far, especially for an episode not focused on the actual office environment.
It was just so awkward, and hilarious. So many funny moments, but the funniest, IMO, was when they revealed how the door was broken, Michael running through it because he thought he heard the ice cream truck... I almost died.
Jan: In Spain, they often don't eat until Midnight
Michael: When in Rome!

If you guys get a chance go to The Office homepage and check out the deleted scenes from last nights show. Just listen to Dwight's "Ideal" dinner party guests

I liked the fact that his Bowflex still had the plastic wrapping on it.

I like his critique of the Wine, it had an 'Oaky Afterbirth'

Some really funny stuff last night:
Michael Scott: Hello Oscar Meyer Wiener -lover. I bet, that you have a bunch of very liberal girl-type friends, who trust you implicitly, because they know you'd never touch them given your condition.

Michael: I'm optimistic. Because every day I get a little more desperate, and desperate situations yield the quickest results.

I could really see myself pulling a Michael and making a "Back to the Future" reference to someone too young to remember it.
It's just one of those movies you assume everyone has seen.

I think this whole Dundermillinfinity thing is going to tank, and it's going to cost Ryan his job. And, funny enough, Make Michael right about the whole online thing not working, even if he didn't understand why.
I love Dwight and his Lord of the Rings references. Just hilarious.

I loved the fact that Ryan put a social networking site in Dundermillinfinity.

I thought last night's episode was just average.
Quote: So how are we going to energize our office? I mean, I haven't done anything since Christmas, Pam clearly has just given up trying.

I'll cut them a little slack knowing that they're trying to pound out a bunch of episodes in a hurry after the strike.
As for this show, I think it didn't do much to advance any kind of storyline, it was really kind of a stand alone episode, which is fine. Every season has those. I'm not so much a fan of Toby trying to ruin Jim and Pam's relationship and get Jim fired though. I thought the Dwight/Andy stuff was good.

I agree with both of you guys, however you gotta love Creeds take on Pam! Ryan is setting himself up for a HUGE fall, imo..
