“The Office” — The Negotiation

So good to have The Office back, right? Last night when I sat down in front of the picture box, my DVR was chalk full of comedies. It was kind of comforting, really.
I don’t know what this says about me as a man, but it wasn’t until a good two-thirds of the way through the episode (a super-sized episode!) that I was able to fully understand what made that a woman’s suit. The pocketless pants definitely pushed the idea a bit more tenaciously. Perhaps this is because I used to have to winter coat that had the zipper on the other side. I was told that’s where the zippers are in Europe, but maybe all this time I was just wearing a woman’s coat — judge for yourself. Either way, I felt Michael Scott’s pain.
Elsewhere in the episode we were shown Ray getting a face full of mace (and Creed remembering it as a can of hairspray and a lighter), Darrell getting Michael to *cough* man-up and ask for a raise, and Kelly deciding that it isn’t crazy to name your child “Usher Jennifer Hudson Kapoor.” I also enjoyed the Jan/Michael back and forth at the negotiation table, though they are always great together (at least in terms of comic potential if not for their very strange two-way attraction).
One questions: what the hell happened to Jim’s hair?

Okay. Full disclosure. I just spent 20 minutes making the above graphic, and now I’m not so certain there actually is a difference (aside, from maybe Jim’s need to condition). Though he’s definitely getting some fly-aways toward the back.
Wow. Time to stop.
Thoughts?

I think they used to wear that coat for any ice planet scenes on ‘Space: 1999′…..
