Another great episode. For me, all three storylines clicked, even the vampire one with Dwight and Jim. I love that Michael acted like an angry ex-girlfriend towards Ryan in lashing out about him to the class. And Michael being the one to cheer Pam up at the end was nicely done. Even with a Chunky in his pocket.
 
The scene where Michael starts tossing candy bars -- Pay Day! -- into the audience was hysterical. Question: Did he flash a Snickers bar at the very end?

He said something like "satisfied?" or "you will be satisfied"

Yes he flashed a Snickers.

Don't forget the Chunky he kept in his pocket? I imagine that would have been tough to work into his presentation.
 
The Office is still good, don't get me wrong, but I find myself laughing far more at My Name is Earl these days. Maybe it's because Earl has gone completely absurdist. Plus, Beau Bridges was on last night as Earl's dad, and he's always really funny.

Both are good, but I found myself laughing out loud during Earl after he switched the brownies and the one guy said "I listened to a whole Phish album, and it sucked."

I also cracked up at Randy picking up a woman:

Randy: "Are you drunk enough to go home with me?"

Woman [takes a long shot of her drink]: "Yup."
 
Earl is a funny show, probably a top 5 comedy for me, but it isn't even close to the same league as The Office.
 
Earl needs to be on HBO to realize its potential, if only for a few Jaime Pressly full frontal nude shots.

Back to The Office, Creed was simply classic last night: "Good night, Mary Beth!"

And I love how he answered all of Dwight's strange questions immediately, as if he knew what Dwight was going to ask.
 
That whole Creed scene was brilliant. Did you notice he keeps his Dustbuster mounted on a charger above his desk?
 
How about the opening scene where Kevin says "I almost died today" or something like that. Makes you wonder what's going on in that dude's life ;D
 
Our DVR recorded the first 10 seconds at the end of Earl and skipped something between. Does Kevin ever answer where he's been?

Mine did the same thing. Weird.
 
As outlandish as this show can be sometimes, I love the fact that, bottom line, these characters are about as real as any you'll find on TV. Last night's episode had a couple of moments that really made me proud that I'm a fan of the show.

*Pam and Roy call off their wedding. Roy cleans up his act in the hopes of getting Pam back. Once it happens, he reverts back to his old ways. I loved that they didn't have Roy maintain his newfound ways. It was totally real life and believable.

*As annoyingly irritating as Michael can be, bottom line is, he loves his employees and wants to make them happy. Even as annoying as he was last week during Phyllis' wedding, in the end, all he wanted was to make her day even more special. Tonight, he was great in his interaction with Adam ... and, without even trying, he accomplished with Pam what he's always trying to do with everyone else.

By the way, if I worked in an office with Jim and Dwight, I'd get nothing done cuz those two are so entertaining it's not even funny.

Good points...

I loved then end where Michael showed up at Pam's art show... while touching, it still turned out to be a funny bit with the Chunky.

Some reason I missed the part with Roy... he came to Pam's art show, right? Was he an ass?

I don't know if Roy is reverting to his old ways, necessarily. I felt bad for him at the show, in a sense, because I think he is trying and does love Pam. He just doesn't know any better.
