I had my concerns at the start of the season, but this show has quietly been finishing very strong before Thursday's send off (well maybe except Andy's quest for fame, not a great storyline IMO). Who's in?

The last episode was classic Office with Jim and Dwight. They should have had Dwight be the boss with Jim as his Assistant from the very beginning of this season.

it has been hit and miss but a few of them ahve been great. Just got done with the episode where andy left. Still have the following one queued up on hulu. A few episodes ago was one of the funnier ones they have had however at this time i dont remember which one it was :)

Jim and dwight always made the show and still do.

What a lovely, genuine, and satisfying finale. Loved it to bits!

It was awesome. The show closed strong, and the finale was touching.

I thought it was a fitting finale. Lots of funny stuff, but it was also very touching. The last 2 years have been up and down, but they ended strong.

"That's What She Said."

Just brilliant. Considering how bad most finales are, this is right up there in a list of best finales of all time. It's a shame the last couple seasons were so mediocre or downright bad.

The finale was good, fo shizzle. But I enjoyed that first part where they showed how the show progressed, and how certain folks got to improvise and that's when some of the funniest stuff happened. That was really cool.

Show really jumped the shark when Steve Carell left. As no offense to James Spader a great actor. But the show WAS Steve Carell!

she comes and goes only as a sub plot for dwights love interests. Once dwight isnt seeing her - she has no way to be integrated into the story as she never worked for dunder .

Rumors of a reboot for 2018, but no Steve Carrel. :(
