Well the final season is upon us and it returned last night, but the cracks are showing that the season will be very hit and miss.
As this is US pace and for the sake of harmony the next part will be hidden.
I'm pretty annoyed by the quality of the writing since Steve Carell departed, the last season without him had patches of sheer comedic brilliance but was pretty dire on a whole. The show has went two seasons too long and it's very clear IMOP that Andy was a very poor replacement for Micheal Scott.

not impressed with the Andy transformation, the Nasty attitude does not suit the character, and the blatant bullying towards Nellie was bordering on abusive, we saw the start of the Jim exit storyline and the potential office bust up between Oscar and the blonde who married the gay state senator.

Glad to see Kelly and Ryan written out early doors as their storyline had become tiresome.
I don't share your pessimistic views for this season, but time will tell.
The Kevin/turtle scene was cringe worthy and a waste of time. Kevin is getting dumber and dumber as the seasons go by. By the end of this season he'll need a care giver to watch over him.
Liked the state senator/Oscar affair. I can't wait until Angela finds out.
I was disappointed that Dwight was not the father of Angela's baby. The writers may have done this in order not to complicate Dwight's spin-off series.
It's too early to tell whether Dwight Junior and New Jim will add anything to the series.
I don't think I can bear to watch any problems between Jim and Pam, their getting together still makes my cry (happy tears!).

JIm/Dwight opens are the best - I loved the one last season where Jim pretended to be dead.

Which events?
I wasn't too keen on the way they were going with Pam and the sound man.
The bit with the warehouse worker and the painting was a bit nasty. He seemed mental.
The show isn't really going out on a high.
They really are just ruining the show.
They should have just let Ed Helms leave rather than have this silly extended hiatus, and I still think it's strange to see Catherine Tate in such a bit part, but I wouldn't put it past Steve Carell to make a token appearance in one of the final episodes...
I don't think that half the cast have left is good for the shows credibility. and i think it will add to the view from history that it jumped the shark when michael left.
interesting that they broke the 4th wall. i do hope pam doesn't have an affair.
Not impressed, it has taken a weird turn with Pam/soundguy thing, Andy away fr three months and Wallace has no idea until he hears Erin tell Andy its over.
Love Nellie, Catherine Tate was made for the role. Miss Kelly and Ryan though, the writing has been hit and miss, the last few episodes have been meh meh.
Shame because it was a cracking production.
Please to see Mindy Kaling (as with BJ) sacked from the show... her role within the series has always been spurious and entirely superfluous, and there are infinitely superior ethnic actresses around.
Unlike most of the other cast, she wasn't just acting on the show, so obviously she wasn't going to be as prominent as those other cast members. She's written the most episodes and she was an executive producer. The only other cast members who produced, wrote and acted on the show were Paul Lieberstein and B.J. Novak.
It didn't feel like a final one but there doesn't seem to be any more.
Ah thought so. It is difficult to watch at the moment, only really watching out of habit.
